MIDDLE
SCHOOL
The CIFS welcomes students aged 11 to 15
The purpose of the middle school is to reinforce the acquisition of fundamental knowledge by combining theoretical and practical learning while considering the specificities of each student to allow for the success of all. Our goal is to provide students with new skills adapted to today’s world and to make middle school a place of fulfillment and citizenship building, a community where individual experience and collective activity are privileged.
It brings together five areas of expertise:
- Language for reflection and communication (French, foreign and local languages, mathematical language, etc.)
- Methods and tools for learning (digital tools, projects, organization, etc.)
- The development of the individual and the citizen (ethical development, life in society, responsibility…)
- Natural systems and technical systems (science, curiosity, problem solving, etc.)
- Representations of the world and human activity (history, culture, geography, …)
At the end of the 3e class, the Diplôme National du Brevet (DNB) certifies the skills acquired at the end of college via the common core of knowledge. The common core of knowledge, skills, and culture presents what every pupil should know and master at the end of compulsory schooling. It brings together all the knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes necessary for a successful education, and life as an individual and future citizen.
