Lycée International Georges Duby is a public general and technological lycée from Seconde through Terminale, at 200 rue Georges Duby, Quartier Rampelin, 13080 Aix-en-Provence. Its international options include the British Baccalauréat Français International (BFI) and Abibac, the French-German dual qualification.
Onisep lists English international Seconde, English-language BFI, Abibac, and European sections in English and Spanish. These are different pathways, not interchangeable labels. The school also offers STMG, the management and business-oriented technological stream.
School pages mention a micro-lycée, a small re-engagement provision, and SHN, high-level sports pupils. References to Cambridge certificates and German Abitur diplomas available for collection describe separate qualifications, not a single award taken by every pupil.
For a prospective entrant, ask which classes and subject-language combination lead to the intended qualification. A French BFI or Abibac pathway is not the IB Diploma.
Ordinary Seconde allocation uses Affelnet, the French school-placement process. BFI and Abibac require separate applications and tests. A welcome page said the academic test dates had not yet been published; the cited information does not establish the 2027 selection calendar.
The previous open day was Wednesday 1 April 2026 from 13:00. It is not a forthcoming appointment. Contact the school for the next published procedure and clarify both section selection and the ordinary allocation requirements.
Onisep lists boarding for girls and boys. The school publishes a packing list and 2026–27 boarding rules, but the existing sources do not give a reliable boarding price. Confirm availability, admission conditions, permitted stays and all charges before relying on a place.
The published 2026 start was:
These are dated first-day arrangements, not normal weekly hours or a 2027 timetable.
The school reported 18 Seconde classes and more than 600 pupils participating in a March zero-waste event. Those figures describe that activity, not a current total school population.
This is a public lycée, but boarding and other services require a separate budget. The cited pages do not establish a boarding invoice; request it directly.
Duby is relevant for families seeking a public British BFI or French-German Abibac route around Aix, subject to selection and allocation. The International Bilingual School of Provence offers a different private route, including younger pupils and IB provision. Compare the qualification, admissions and actual accommodation needs rather than treating the schools as substitutes at every age.

Friendly orientation, not an application. Dates, fees, and programme details move. Confirm everything with the school.
