Rectorat online application site now open. See details below about applying for the International sections at Balzac.
All parents in the international section share a common objective: enhance their children’s lives through sharing the language and culture of one or more sections available in the school.
Whilst the school provides a framework with formal teaching, family participation is key to bringing alive the benefits of this multi-cultural environment.
The largest state school campus in Paris, Lycée Honoré-de-Balzac offers, in addition to the normal French curriculum, international sections open to students who speak fluently and write in one of the following languages: Spanish, German, English, Arabic, Portuguese and Italian. Within this dynamic, culturally enriching international environment, these students pass the French general baccalaureate, with an international mention (Option Internationale Baccalaureate). Please read the FAQs before applying to the English section.
Tours of the school and the grounds are organised once a year at the school open day in March. Sadly, due to the Covid pandemic, we have not had an Open day since March 2019. Balzac/the English section will be organising an online meeting this year for parents/children. Details of this meeting will be posted here as soon as we are given them.
Please read the FAQs before applying for the International English section at Balzac. Details about the rectorat online application site, which opened on the 10th January, can be found in the last FAQ.
The campus is easily accessible by public transport (station Porte de Clichy) and is close to the Paris ring road. Click here for more information.
Please accept our apologies. We will fix this as soon as possible.
