The Lycée Français International d'Ibiza follows the French national curriculum and prepares students for the Baccalauréat from the 2nde year, with three years of study in 2nde, 1ère and Terminale. The 2021 reform replaced the traditional L, ES and S streams with a modular track; students follow a common core and choose three specialty subjects from twelve offered. The school directly teaches five specialties: Mathematics; Economic and Social Sciences; Languages, Literatures and Foreign Cultures (English, Contemporary World); Physics-Chemistry. Other specialties may be studied through CNED with a supervising teacher. The ADN-AEFE program enables two students per year to undertake an exchange with another AEFE partner school. Language learning is reinforced through PARLE language pathways, with options including German, English, Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian and Vietnamese, and EMILE/DNL approaches are used to teach subjects in a foreign language when appropriate.

Orientation is designed to help students build a personal and professional project as part of the PARCOURS AVENIR for students from the sixth grade to terminale. The school runs activities around orientation, including a Higher Education Forum (in Barcelona), a Career Forum on site, conferences and thematic workshops (in Barcelona), and information sessions with students and families (entretiens with the homeroom teacher and then the Principal). Resources are available at the Espace Orientation in the Centre de Connaissance et de Culture (3C).
The school provides an inclusive approach for students with educational needs, including intellectually precocious students. It details procedures for inclusion such as a PA I (Individualized Support Plan), PAP (Personalized Support Plan for dys), PPS (Personalized Schooling Plan), and PPRE (Personalized Remedial Support Program), with steps including initial contact with school leaders, assessing the student's autonomy, and designing adapted learning pathways, plus potential financial support where applicable.
Le bien-devenir is a continuous process of personal growth and well-being that guides each student toward a harmonious future. It encompasses physical and mental well-being, the development of skills, emotional growth, and the realization of future personal and professional projects. The school supports this path with a nurturing environment, targeted supports, and attention to values and priorities. Students are encouraged to adopt well-being practices and to envision a calm and rewarding future.
The school welcomes students with special educational needs and implements an inclusive approach. AEFE foreign schools abroad do not have dedicated specialized reception structures, so the focus is on inclusive pathways that best meet each student's needs. The approach is grounded in French law (the 2005 law on equality of rights and opportunities, and the 2013 law on education reform) and AEFE's framework for inclusive schooling. A student is considered to have special educational needs if they have chronic illness, dys disorders, are intellectually precocious, have a disability, or face significant learning or adaptation difficulties. The reception process involves initial contact with school leadership, defining the student's autonomy, and implementing adapted schooling pathways using MENESR guides (PAI, PAP, PPS, PPRE); documents are signed and shared among all involved. Families may request support from the relevant authorities (MDPH) for French nationals, and there may be financial assistance to cover certain supports or equipment.
The PARLE language pathways aim to strengthen language training and the mastery of at least one foreign language beyond the host language. These pathways can be offered in German, English, Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, and Vietnamese. A move to an existing international section, bilingual section, or SELO can be possible from the Seconde year. In addition to regular language hours, teaching in the chosen language may be provided as EMILE (teaching a subject in a foreign language) in early years or as DNL (discipline non linguistique) in secondary years.
Mental wellbeing is embedded in the Le bien-devenir concept, which emphasizes emotional development and well-being practices as part of the student's growth and future planning. The approach supports students in developing resilience and emotional balance within a supportive environment.
To guarantee the well-being and safety of every pupil, the school has established safeguarding protocols, including a Minor Protection Protocol and a Harassment Protocol, designed to prevent, support, and respond to concerns.
The school offers scholarships. The first scholarship campaign for 2025/2026 will begin soon.
