Luckily this international school accepts new students all throughout the academic year for those who are moving to Bordeaux at any point. BIS prepares its students for the British end of year exams and also gives the option for students to prepare for an American high school diploma and SATs, while, of course, preparing them for the French end of year exam, the baccalauréat.
