Introduction

SIS Paris Ouest offers bilingual education within the French education system, with Anglophone and Germanophone sections. The school operates across three host establishments in Sèvres, Boulogne-Billancourt and Saint-Cloud and serves over 1,300 students from kindergarten through lycée. It was founded in 1960 and remains an international section under the aegis of the French Ministry of National Education, employing about sixty teachers from English- or German-speaking countries. The curriculum combines the French national framework with Cambridge Secondary and Cambridge IGCSE, and the integrated programme is designed for bilingual students with mother-tongue-level language skills. Two disciplines—literature and history-geography—are taught in English or German, and the programme provides six hours of literacy, geography, history and science instruction. A Wednesday School offers morning workshops in English and German, and after-school language activities for younger students. Extracurriculars include Debating Club, Model United Nations and Parliament Européen, theatre productions (The Play/Die Bühne) and fundraisers and exchanges.

Academics

SIS Paris Ouest teaches French Curriculum, Cambridge (Secondary), Cambridge IGCSE for students aged 3 to 18.

Curriculum
The integrated programme is designed for bilingual students with native-level language skills. It complements the standard French curriculum taught in public schools where SIS Paris Ouest operates from primary through high school. As an International Section, two disciplines are taught in English or German: literature and history-geography. The Wednesday School provides after-school courses in English and German for language development, with additional beginner English and German workshops available.

Exam Results
Baccalauréat Français International (BFI) is the highest bilingual certification at the end of secondary education in France and serves as a passport to higher education in France and abroad; the BFI includes a bilingual pathway with British option. Cambridge Checkpoint tests are prepared in the core English program for 5e, assessed in Reading, Usage and Writing, and marked by Cambridge examiners. The IGCSE is studied in Troisième and Seconde as part of the English Language and Literature curriculum; it is optional and, from 2026-27, assessed by Oxford AQA; IGCSE results are presented as First Language and Literature, and are viewed as preparation for the BFI and international benchmarks. The school reports strong results, including 91% of 2025 BFI graduates earning mentions, with the first BFI cohort in German and British sections achieving excellent results in bilingual and trilingual pathways.

Higher Education Progression
Graduates have a broad range of higher education options in France and abroad. More than one in three alumni from SIS Paris Ouest's international sections pursue studies abroad (Germany, Canada, Netherlands, UK, USA). Those remaining in France enter fields such as selective programs, preparatory classes for Grandes Écoles, and admissions to engineering schools, business schools, Sciences Po, and universities.
