Anglophone Section of Fontainebleau

Located on the Fontainebleau International Campus, the Anglophone Section is a fee-paying unit within three French state schools and serves pupils from CP to Terminale. It offers the French national curriculum alongside Anglophone Section subjects, with Cambridge IGCSE and the BFI at the end of schooling. ACL, DNL and Connaissances du Monde are taught in English; students choose two majors and French-language options. Since September 2022, Première begins BFI study, with emphasis on oral presentation; about 40% of final grades derive from Section subjects; Connaissances du Monde requires independent research and a 20-minute presentation. Anglophone teaching hours progress from six per week in Seconde to eleven in Terminale (two hours in French). The Section has an entrance on Avenue Verdun and serves pupils from 30 nationalities. English is taught by native speakers; the campus hosts one of the largest OIB BFI centers and Cambridge iGCSE center status for teachers and examiners.
