French Baccalaureate and Brevet
Our students participate in national examinations as part of the French national education system. These include the Brevet des Collèges in troisième (Grade 9), leading to the Bilingual French-English IB (ICE is an IB-World Candidate School at the time of this information), and the French International Baccalaureate (American Section) within the French curriculum in high school. Importantly, as part of the bilingual framework of ICE's bilingual education program, students also take the IGCSE exams in grade 10.
The current examination results available at this time are the Brevet, 100% success, and 100% with 'Mention' (Distinction).
