Nacel offers international students to study in a local public French high school, living in a French host family in the Paris area (about 40 km from Paris city centre). It will allow them to experience the everyday life of French students and discover the French culture and “art de vivre”.

Students can also choose to study in a private boarding school in Cholet, Oloron Ste Marie or Rodez (emphasis on technical subjects and electronic): they will integrate the boarding quarters with their French school friends during weekdays and will be accommodated by a French host family on weekends and during school holidays.

SCHOOL SYSTEM
French secondary education is divided into two schools: the collège for the first four years directly following primary school; the lycée for the next three years. The completion of secondary studies leads to the baccalauréat. The director of the school decides which is the best class and level for the international student, taking into consideration the school organization, the student’s school transcripts and the level in French. The subjects to be studied are the following: Mathematics, French, 1st foreign language (generally English), 2nd foreign language (Spanish or German), Physics, Biology, History, Geography, Arts and Sport.
