(End of fee summary.)

Curriculum

The Lycée Français International d'Ibiza follows the French national curriculum and prepares students for the Baccalauréat from the 2nde year, with three years of study in 2nde, 1ère and Terminale. The 2021 reform replaced the traditional L, ES and S streams with a modular track; students follow a common core and choose three specialty subjects from twelve offered. The school directly teaches five specialties: Mathematics; Economic and Social Sciences; Languages, Literatures and Foreign Cultures (English, Contemporary World); Physics-Chemistry. Other specialties may be studied through CNED with a supervising teacher. The ADN-AEFE program enables two students per year to undertake an exchange with another AEFE partner school. Language learning is reinforced through PARLE language pathways, with options including German, English, Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian and Vietnamese, and EMILE/DNL approaches are used to teach subjects in a foreign language when appropriate.

Exam Results

Baccalauréat - Class of 2025: 100% success; 100% with a mention; 37% with a very good mention. Diplôme National du Brevet - Class of 2025: 0% success; 100% with a mention; 39% with a very good mention. Certificat de langues - Class of 2025: Trinity College (English): 0%; DELF B1 and B2: 0%. The school prepares students for English language certifications; English courses begin in kindergarten and lead to an excellent level (B2 minimum); some students arrive not speaking French and leave with excellent command of French, with an objective of reaching level C1.

Higher Education Progression

Orientation is designed to help students build a personal and professional project as part of the PARCOURS AVENIR for students from the sixth grade to terminale. The school runs activities around orientation, including a Higher Education Forum (in Barcelona), a Career Forum on site, conferences and thematic workshops (in Barcelona), and information sessions with students and families (entretiens with the homeroom teacher and then the Principal). Resources are available at the Espace Orientation in the Centre de Connaissance et de Culture (3C).

Gifted and Talented

The school provides an inclusive approach for students with educational needs, including intellectually precocious students. It details procedures for inclusion such as a PA I (Individualized Support Plan), PAP (Personalized Support Plan for dys), PPS (Personalized Schooling Plan), and PPRE (Personalized Remedial Support Program), with steps including initial contact with school leaders, assessing the student's autonomy, and designing adapted learning pathways, plus potential financial support where applicable.

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

Le bien-devenir is a continuous process of personal growth and well-being that guides each student toward a harmonious future. It encompasses physical and mental well-being, the development of skills, emotional growth, and the realization of future personal and professional projects. The school supports this path with a nurturing environment, targeted supports, and attention to values and priorities. Students are encouraged to adopt well-being practices and to envision a calm and rewarding future.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

The school welcomes students with special educational needs and implements an inclusive approach. AEFE foreign schools abroad do not have dedicated specialized reception structures, so the focus is on inclusive pathways that best meet each student's needs. The approach is grounded in French law (the 2005 law on equality of rights and opportunities, and the 2013 law on education reform) and AEFE's framework for inclusive schooling. A student is considered to have special educational needs if they have chronic illness, dys disorders, are intellectually precocious, have a disability, or face significant learning or adaptation difficulties. The reception process involves initial contact with school leadership, defining the student's autonomy, and implementing adapted schooling pathways using MENESR guides (PAI, PAP, PPS, PPRE); documents are signed and shared among all involved. Families may request support from the relevant authorities (MDPH) for French nationals, and there may be financial assistance to cover certain supports or equipment.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

The PARLE language pathways aim to strengthen language training and the mastery of at least one foreign language beyond the host language. These pathways can be offered in German, English, Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, and Vietnamese. A move to an existing international section, bilingual section, or SELO can be possible from the Seconde year. In addition to regular language hours, teaching in the chosen language may be provided as EMILE (teaching a subject in a foreign language) in early years or as DNL (discipline non linguistique) in secondary years.

Mental Wellbeing

Mental wellbeing is embedded in the Le bien-devenir concept, which emphasizes emotional development and well-being practices as part of the student's growth and future planning. The approach supports students in developing resilience and emotional balance within a supportive environment.

Safeguarding

To guarantee the well-being and safety of every pupil, the school has established safeguarding protocols, including a Minor Protection Protocol and a Harassment Protocol, designed to prevent, support, and respond to concerns.

- The standard collection method is SEPA bank direct debit in euros, with the bank debit processed on the 1st day of each month. Families may request alternative payment arrangements in writing to the financial director if SEPA debit is absolutely impossible. It is possible to pay the full year in advance by direct debit (payment must be made before 17 August) — this does not carry an automatic discount.
- The school may issue additional invoices for extracurricular activities, excursions and other term‑based items in October, January and April; locker rental and some programme fees are invoiced separately at specified times of the year. Receipts are issued for purchases of books and uniforms; families who pay by bank giro (direct debit) can arrange to have those sales charged by giro.

Boarding
- Boarding services are not provided; boarding fees are not applicable. (The school operates as a day school.)

Other costs and optional services
- Digital fee (where applicable from 6th Primary to 4th ESO): €60 per month (typical annual cost ≈ €600 for ten months).
- Dual Diploma (American) programme (applicable from 3rd year of ESO): €160 per month (typical annual cost ≈ €1,600 for ten months).
- Lunch service (applicable to pre‑school and primary): €16 per day or €242 per month.
- Custody (morning supervision 08:00–09:00, applicable to pre‑school and primary): €90 per month.
- Transport (Ibiza – Sta. Eulalia, applicable to Secondary and Bachillerato): €125 per month.
- Device and incidental charges: an administrative handling fee for damaged iPad incidents €45; accessory replacement charges (example: charger €25, cable €25, case €60). Additional extraordinary charges (annual programme fees, excursions, locker rental, extra‑curricular activities) are invoiced at specified times during the year.

Refunds and withdrawal
- The enrolment (matrícula) paid to reserve a place for the active course is not refundable if a pupil is withdrawn after the academic year has begun. Families who withdraw a pupil during the academic year must provide three months' written notice and remain financially liable for the tuition instalments during that three‑month notice period. The same rules apply if a pupil is expelled under disciplinary procedures.

Fee payment options and administration
- Standard payment method: SEPA bank direct debit in euros, processed on the 1st of each month. The account presented for direct debit must be in the SEPA zone and denominated in euros. Families who cannot use direct debit must submit a written request to the financial director explaining the reason.
- Book and uniform purchases take place in the school shop; families who pay school fees by direct debit may elect to pay books/uniforms by bank giro to streamline in‑person collection. Official invoices/receipts are issued for shop purchases. Extra charges for programmes, excursions and locker rental are invoiced separately.

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

A Guidance Department collaborates with tutors and teachers to address students' educational needs throughout the academic year. The department conducts periodic psycho-pedagogical assessments to detect learning difficulties or identify particularly talented students. A customised study plan is developed to meet the specific needs of each student. The guidance team also helps tutors support students in choosing Baccalaureate subjects and future university degrees and aspiring careers in mind. Tutors receive ongoing support from the guidance department, with regular family contact and the use of ISAMS and the Mestral school app to deliver personalised attention and identify, assess, and prevent learning difficulties from day one.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

Psycho-pedagogical assessments detect learning difficulties and identify particularly talented students. A customised study plan is developed to meet each student's specific needs. The guidance department works with tutors to provide personalised attention, helping identify, assess, and prevent learning difficulties from day one. Tutors maintain regular contact with families via email, phone, or meetings to support these needs. The school supports subject and course selection at Baccalaureate with the aim of aligning with each student's abilities and goals.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

Multilingualism from ages 3 to 18 is offered. Education is bilingual in Spanish and English, with Catalan and German studied as part of the language program. Learners become fluent in four languages with native teachers. Learners can earn official certifications through Cambridge ESOL and Goethe Institut. The curriculum is taught in Spanish and English, opening opportunities across Spain and internationally.

Mental Wellbeing

Nursery and Primary have a dedicated guidance service that supports academic progress and personal well-being. Secondary and high school students have access to a school psychologist who oversees their overall well-being, guiding and assisting them as needed. Tutoring is central to learning, with tutors maintained through regular family contact and supported by the guidance department to identify and address learning needs. The guidance department also provides university and careers counselling to support students' personal development and future plans.

Admissions

Applications are accepted throughout the academic year, but parents are advised to apply at least a year in advance of the desired start date to secure a place. The process begins by completing the Enquiry Form to begin the application. You will be invited for a personalised visit to explain the educational project, programmes, and enrichment opportunities, followed by a tour of the campus. Additional documents may be requested at this stage, such as the latest academic results and school reports. An interview with the admissions coordinator can be scheduled to obtain information about the payment process and required documents. If the application is successful, the school reception will contact you to finalise enrolment. The admissions team is available to answer questions and assist with the process.

Scholarships

Mestral offers two types of scholarships based on academic excellence and outstanding results for students who have completed ESO: Excellence Scholarships for Internal Students and Excellence & Social Scholarships for External Students. Internal Scholarships provide exemption from monthly school fees for the award year. Selection for internal scholarships is based on academic criteria, with the first-year baccalaureate scholarship using weighted ESO averages and the second-year scholarship using the first-year of the baccalaureate grades; the required average is above 9, with ties distributed equally. The deadline is July 5th of the previous academic year. External Scholarships (Social & Excellence) consider academic performance and socio-economic criteria; there are two awards each year, one in the first year of the Baccalaureate and one in the second year; recipients are exempt from monthly fees for the year in which the scholarship applies. Selection factors include ESO averages, socio-economic documentation, and a personal interview. Applications for external scholarships require a certificate of the applicant's average from the previous school and socio-economic documentation by July 5th of the same year; for the second-year scholarship, the student must remain at Mestral; the director may revoke the scholarship for significant academic decline or disciplinary issues. For more information, please submit an enquiry.
