Chavagnes International College is a Catholic, boys' boarding school in France that offers a classical education built on a British framework with French options. For pupils aged 11–18, the curriculum blends Cambridge assessments (IGCSE/GCSE and A-Levels) with Brevet and Baccalauréat routes for French pupils. Classes are primarily in English, with intensive English and French tuition to support bilingual learners. Junior Secondary (Years 7–9) follows the Cambridge Checkpoint model for Mathematics, Science and English alongside the French national curriculum, with Checkpoint results confirming progress. Senior Secondary (Years 10–11) uses Cambridge/AQA syllabuses for IGCSE/GCSE and A-Levels, with additional support for the Brevet and French. UK/French Advanced (Years 12–13) provides AS and A-level routes; French pupils may also sit the Baccalauréat. Facilities include sports fields, climbing wall, a theatre, a library, science laboratories and computer facilities. The college emphasizes music, languages and cultural exchange, exemplified by the choir, polyglots club and trips.
