Why choose a bilingual school in Boulogne-Billancourt rather than central Paris

Boulogne-Billancourt is the largest municipality in the Hauts-de-Seine and one of the most international areas in western Paris, home to corporate headquarters, expatriate families and just minutes from the 16th arrondissement.

For families, this means a school just 5 minutes from Paris without the constraints of the city centre, with a campus of over 3,000 m² housing the primary school, secondary level and high school. Children benefit from outdoor patios for their breaks, a theatre room, a canteen and several activity rooms.

Many of our students walk home, meet up on Wednesdays and grow up together, from ages 2 to 18, on the same campus.

Qualifications offered in Boulogne-Billancourt: GCSEs, IGCSEs, A Levels and Pearson Edexcel examination centre

Year 11 students (Seconde) sit their GCSEs and IGCSEs, while Year 13 students (Terminale) take their A Levels, directly at the rue Castéja campus, in their own classrooms.
