Information for University & College Admissions Officers

Ecole Alsacienne is an independent, secular French school, which welcomes pupils from age 3 (maternelle) through Year 13 (Terminale). Accredited by the Ministry of Education, we follow the national curriculum, and our pupils prepare the French baccalauréat général. We offer European and Oriental Sections, which enable pupils to study Science in English, as well as History & Geography in Chinese, English or German.

French Baccalaureate & Predicted Grades

A key change to the French Baccalaureate is continuous testing during the last two years of Upper School in addition to written and oral examinations. 

Ecole Alsacienne establishes predictive grades by taking into account the average marks from Year 12 (Première). Also considered are the results of our former students on the Baccalaureate exams, as well as the student’s progress during the first trimester of Terminale. This is a collective effort led by the teaching staff, the head of high school, and the head of international programs. The teams work together to establish the fairest and most equitable projected grades possible.

At the end of Year 12, pupils receive 3 final marks for the modules which are not continued in Year 13 (terminale):

  • French Literature (oral)
  • French Literature (written)
  • One Special Subject
