Students in the Pre-Orientation Cycle are making a big step towards taking responsibility for their own learning and well-being.\n<p><\/p><p>.<\/p>\nAt the end of S3, students have the opportunity to personalise their subject package. Students keep the language scenario they already had in the Observation Cycle, and next to their three languages, they must take Mathematics for 4 or 6 periods a week. Biology, Chemistry and Physics are studied in English, for 2 periods per week each. History and Geography are studied for 2 periods each in the student\u2019s second language, as is Ethics. Students add at least one elective subject from the following: Language 4 (if available), Art, Music or ICT.\n<p><\/p><p>.<\/p>\nThe careers guidance and form tutor lessons are in part a continuation of what was done in the Observation Cycle, but students also work on study skills and career orientation. S4 students do one week of work experience at the end of June as part of career and university orientation. Highly motivated students may apply to do a 6-8 week exchange with another European School during the first semester in S4, or a 4-month exchange during the first semester in S5.\n<p><\/p><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_2  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p>For information about the specific classes in the pre-orientation cycle, for the programmes, progressions and structure of the curriculum, please click below:<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_1  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_button_module_wrapper et_pb_button_0_wrapper et_pb_button_alignment_center et_pb_module \">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"et_pb_button et_d4_element et_pb_button_0 et_pb_bg_layout_light et_block_module\" href=\"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/s4\/\">S4<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column et_pb_column_2  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_button_module_wrapper et_pb_button_1_wrapper et_pb_button_alignment_center et_pb_module \">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"et_pb_button et_d4_element et_pb_button_1 et_pb_bg_layout_light et_block_module\" href=\"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/s5\/\">S5<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":5918,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5867","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5867","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5867"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5867\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5868,"href":"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5867\/revisions\/5868"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5918"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ecoleinternationalepaca.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5867"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
