General Education
Middle school marks students' entry into secondary education. It is organized into four levels, from 6ème to 3ème, and structured around 2 educational cycles.
Particular attention is given to welcoming students, with integration and cohesion sessions at the start of the school year. La classe de 6Starting in 6ème, students will take one hour of Scientific English. This hour will introduce students to a field of scientific lexis that is not covered in the usual practice of the language, and will pave the way for a field that is crucial for anyone pursuing studies in science.
La classe de 6e doit permettre aux élèves de s’adapter à l’organisation et au cadre de vie du collège, ainsi que d’assurer la continuité des apprentissages entrepris dans les deux premières années du cycle dans les classes de CM1 et de CM2.
Additionally, educational activities are organized throughout the CM2 year to prepare them for the transition to collège, ensuring a successful adaptation to secondary education.
The aim of this cycle is to develop students' skills across various disciplines and cross-disciplinary paths, preparing them for further education and active participation in society's future evolution. The cycle concludes with the Diplôme National du Brevet examination.

Programs ensure the acquisition of fundamental knowledge and skills. They reflect and specify the objectives defined by the new common base. This is structured around five areas:
Languages for thinking and communicating
- Methods and tools for learning
- La formation de la personne et du citoyen
- Natural and technical systems
- Representations of the world and human activity
These programs, designed to be simple and easy to understand, aim to help all students succeed and enhance the quality of teaching and learning
- Their objectives are clear and defined according to a progression adapted to children's learning.
Compulsory courses
Programs ensure the acquisition of fundamental knowledge and skills.
Middle school courses are organized into disciplines:
Les enseignements au collège sont structurés en disciplines :
- French
- Mathematics
- History-geography
- Enseignement moral et civique
- Langues vivantes
- Sciences de la vie et de la Terre
- Physique-chimie
- Technologie
- Physical education and sports
- Plastic arts
- Éducation musicale
- Personalized support
At AIS, Art, Physical Education and Music are taught in English. Students also have one hour of Scientific English.
En classe de 6e, les enseignements des sciences de la vie et de la Terre, physique-chimie et technologie peuvent être regroupés en « Sciences et technologie », faisant l’objet d’un programme commun, dans la continuité des premières années du cycle 3.
Les enseignements pratiques interdisciplinaires (EPI) sont des enseignements complémentaires qui font partie des enseignements obligatoires et se mettent en œuvre sous forme de projets.
Les objectifs de chaque fin de cycle sont fixés par des programmes nationaux qui permettent de travailler les connaissances et les compétences du socle commun. Ces programmes comportent un enseignement d’histoire des arts, ainsi que d’éducation aux médias et à l’information, qui ne sont pas rattachés à une discipline particulière mais sont assurés de façon transversale, y compris avec le professeur documentaliste et le support du CDI.
Al Jabr also promotes the responsible use of AI among students by providing lessons on its use and ethics. It is essential for our students to be informed of the dangers of unethical use while mastering the elements to utilize it effectively.
This education runs parallel with Media and Information Literacy, as well as Civic and moral education.
Enseignement optionnel
Al Jabr propose à ses élèves l’enseignement d’une 3e langue vivante à partir de la 5e avec un choix possible entre l’espagnol et l’allemand.
Si le niveau général de l’élève le permet, le choix de cet enseignement optionnel est fortement recommandé, il permettra aux élèves de mettre en valeur un véritable capital linguistique pour accéder aux meilleurs études supérieures ensuite.
« The Common Base of Knowledge, Skills and Culture » is the body of knowledge, skills, values and attitudes needed to succeed in school, as an individual and as a future citizen. From elementary school through to the final year of compulsory education, pupils progressively acquire the skills and knowledge of this common foundation. Teachers certify the level achieved in each component of the Common Base at the end of each teaching cycle. This validation accounts for 50% of the final mark for the Diplôme National du Brevet. https://www.education.gouv.fr/le-socle-commun-de-connaissances-de-competences-et-de-culture-12512
