Find your International School in Bordeaux, France

International School 33 is one of 5,300 schools that teach International Baccalaureate® (IB) programs to over one million students around the world. All IB World Schools are distinguished by their pedagogical rigor and emphasize the critical thinking skills, diversity and personal growth of their students.
At IS 33, teaching is bilingual in English and French in kindergarten and primary. Students therefore study all subjects (mathematics, language, natural and human sciences, art and personal, social and physical education), in both languages, as many hours in French as in English.
In middle and high school, bilingual students enter the international section in order to study English language and literature. They will thus take bilingual IB exams at the end of their course. Non-bilingual students join a section dedicated to them.

Our bilingual international school, founded in 1987, is distinguished by its unique status as a SCOP (an Educational Cooperative). This independence ensures that our decisions are never driven by financial profit but are guided by our commitment to embody and promote the fundamental values of academic excellence, inclusion, respect, and the personal growth of each individual.
Bordeaux International School is the only school in the region accredited by the CIS (Council of International Schools) proposing bilingual French-English education across the Early Learning, Primary and Middle School sections. Additionally, we offer the Cambridge International IGCSE, AS and A Levels in Upper Secondary.
Each year, our school welcomes students from approximately 40 nationalities who come together to learn in a caring and supportive environment. with small class sizes (maximum 10/12 pupils per class in Early Learning and 16 students per class in Primary and Secondary) to ensure that all students receive the support and guidance that they deserve.
