Introduction
Lycée La Bourdonnais is Mauritius' long‑standing French‑programme school, AEFE‑conventioned and accredited by the French Ministry of Education. It serves ages 5 to 18 with a continuous path from kindergarten to terminale and a 100% baccalaureate pass rate. French is the main language of instruction, with English playing a central role from primary school onward. From CP, the British Section strengthens English language learning. The school offers a plurilingual curriculum with French and English as core languages and additional offerings in Spanish, German, Mandarin and Russian. English is taught through two tracks: the International British Section and the European Section. The International British Section combines the French Baccalaureate with two English A Levels and leads to the OIB, while also enabling Cambridge examinations and a French Ministry diploma. The European Section focuses on English, History and Geography. The Avançons Ensemble program supports inclusive education. The campus at Forest-Side hosts a Centre de Documentation et d'Information (CDI), and the school has trained about 8,630 graduates with around 82 secondary teachers.
