Primary School: Primary school is designed for children ages 7 to 12.Ĭhildren who attend preschool have the opportunity to enroll in induction courses at the age of six instead of having to wait until they are seven.The Senegalese primary education system divides six years of study into three cycles of two years that culminate in the successful completion of the CFEE (Certificate of Elementary Completion) and an entrance test into the next cycle of education. Middle School: Middle school education is aimed at students ages 13 and is composed of four years of study.To successfully pass middle school students must succeed on their BFEM (brevet de fin d'études moyennes). High School: Senegalese secondary education can be "general" or technical (adhering to the standards of the French system of the lycée). These secondary study programs last three years and are officially approved by the French baccalaureate. The technical secondary education program culminates in the passing of the BEP (brevet d'études professionnelles) and the BT (brevet de technicien). Senegalese state schools do not offer religious education, so children are sent to Koranic school instead. International schools can be the perfect solution for an expat student (multinational corporation executives, children of diplomats, NGO staff) in Senegal. Many schools provide similar standards of schooling around the globe, providing for an easy transition between schools whether they are in France or Vietnam. There may be some local population, but the schools are usually geared for an international student body. Schools may follow a curriculum model from the US, UK, France, etc. Primary instruction may be any language (and multiple languages are usually taught), but it is usually in English, French, Spanish, German, or Japanese.
Schools also provide internationally accepted accreditation such as the international baccalaureate.Īdmission and enrolment procedures vary from school to school. Space is often limited and preference may be given to students based on nationality.
