Hi My 2 girls go to college in Rochechouart,(it is the only college) and we have just worked out between us that there are around 30 english pupils of all ages in the school. Not all the teachers speak english though.My girls are happy there, but then we have lived here 5 years and they have gone through primary school so went up with all their french friends and have since made new ones. I have abit of an issue with the fact that the english kids seem to stick together as a bit of a 'clique' and this causes some resentment but its not just this year it's been happening for a while. The only problem I can see is that if they put your son into 3eme, (which is the last year) he will be expected to take his 'brevet' at the end of this school year, and this exam is based on the previous 4 years scool work. So maybe its worth asking if he can be held back a year. Anyway good luck with the move. Maybe I'll see you at the gate. Any questions feel free to pm Regards Karen
