Secondary education is provided by the CNED (National Centre for Distance Education) courses of the Academies of Rennes and Rouen. Students follow the official French curriculum through correspondence courses.
To facilitate student follow-up, EFID puts in place a suitable schedule for each class and qualified and experienced teaching assistants for each subject (depending on the number of students). The size of the workforce allows individualised help.
A school diary specifically designed for CNED students allows parents to regularly monitor their work and progress throughout the year. In addition, a quarterly meeting is organised between parents and teaching assistants. A quarterly bulletin with the assessments of the correcting teachers is sent to the parents, in addition to the official CNED transcript.
CNED students benefit from an exceptional environment where they find all the resources and school materials necessary to succeed in their studies: computers with Internet access, a complete Documentation and Information Center (CDI), a workshop for arts and music, a sports field with multiple sports activities (table tennis, basketball, football …).
The weekly class schedule is 32 hours. A class room is exclusively reserved for them and homework is organised on a regular basis.
Entrance test
The registration of a child will not be systematic, it will depend on his level of French. Indeed, the level of French is decisive for college and high school.
Intensified French
Intensified French classes are also offered in the institution to facilitate the integration of students whose mother tongue is not French.
Languages
Students can have courses on modern languages (LV1 : English, LV2 : Spanish).
