Sending dossier & NEW dates for Entrance tests (now school closed due to Coronavirus outbreak)

06/05/2020

The written entrance tests have been cancelled. The section teachers will be assessing candidates based on the school reports (dossier scolaire) and the oral.

Les tests écrits sont supprimés en raison de la crise sanitaire. En conséquence, le processus d’évaluation des candidatures s'appuiera sur l’évaluation du dossier de candidature et du test oral.

If you haven't as yet sent your blue dossier d'inscription for your child to sit the entrance tests then, if you have access to a scanner, the dossier can be sent to the Int. secretary at sections.internationales@gmail.com

You now have until the 30th of April to submit your dossier via email.

Lycée Honoré de Balzac

The largest public 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 or Italian. Within this dynamic, culturally enriching international environment, these students pass the French general baccalaureate, with an international mention (Option Internationale Baccalaureate).

Visiting the campus

Tours of the school and the grounds are organised once a year at our Open day. Sadly the Open day planned for Saturday 7th March 2020 was cancelled as a preventative measure for the Coronavirus.

Directions

The campus is easily accessible by public transit, including RATP Transit buses, and the ring road. Street parking is available at city rates. Click here for more public transit information.
