The American International Section of the Lycée Français de Manille offers a bilingual curriculum with enhanced instruction in English and North American culture, from Grade 1 (CP) through to the French International Baccalaureate (BFI) in Grades 11 and 12 (Première and Terminale). Specific subjects follow a curriculum defined by the partner country.

 

The International Section is the result of an agreement between the French Ministry of Education and the partner country, the USA.

​

For the 2025–2026 school year, the following levels are open:

• Elementary International Section: CP*, CE1*, CE2*, CM1, and CM2

• Middle School International Section: 6ème, 5ème, 4ème, and 3ème

• High School International Section: 2nde

• French International Baccalaureate (BFI): Première and Terminale

 

*The International Section for Cycle 2 (CP, CE1, CE2) is free of charge and its opening depends on a minimum number of students.

​

The BFI includes additional exams in three subjects, with a required proficiency level of C1 (CEFR) in English.

The BFI offers greater international opportunities than the standard French Baccalauréat, including access to scholarships in the USA and enhanced admission prospects to leading universities in France and across Europe.

​

Admission is based on application and entrance tests, with tailored support depending on age and level. Discover the curriculum, class schedules, specific exams, and unique benefits of this section.
