Diplômes et certifications

The Baccalaureate Diploma

The General Baccalaureate diploma is specifically intended for pursuing higher education, particularly in universities or in preparatory schools.

The General Baccalaureate is evaluated using two methods:

Continuous assessment, which accounts for 40% of the final grade, considers the student’s performance in class throughout the final cycle, including both mandatory and elective subjects;
The remaining 60% of the final grade is determined through final exams, which are divided into the first group and, if applicable, the second group (“oral exams” or “random checks”).

The Brevet National Diploma

The Brevet National Diploma evaluates the knowledge and competencies obtained upon completion of lower secondary school. The evaluation method consists of a combination of continual assessment of key competencies and final examinations, ensuring a balanced approach. Each subject evaluated is administered as an individual test, with the exception of science (which consists of two subjects) and an oral test for school candidates.

The common foundation of knowledge, skills, and culture delineates the essential content and abilities that every student should acquire and demonstrate by the completion of mandatory education. It encompasses the entirety of the knowledge, skills, beliefs, and attitudes required for success in academia, personal growth, and future civic engagement.
