Textbook Case

For any child - and their parent - starting at a new school is a scary thing. How much scarier is it to start school in a new country? But with a little preparation to get everyone ready, the uncertainty can become excited anticipation.

knowledge is power

If you have a child starting school in France, you can find out what to expect from the upcoming school year with AngloINFO's comprehensive INFOrmation Page on Schooling in France. Here you can find out about the workings of the education system, international schooling and the documents you need in order to register your child for school.

In the Education & Training category of The AngloFILE directory of local English-speaking businesses, you'll find all the international and English-language schools in the area, along with after-school support and education resources for children of all ages.

To help you plan the year ahead, you can refer to the page School Holidays for the state vacation days. Be aware that private schools may follow a slightly different calendar.

And if you have any questions for other parents living locally, why not ask them on the Families & Kids Discussion Forum?
