Calendars and academic schedule
To integrate both the requirements of the school curriculum and those related to the language teaching programs (English and Arabic), EFI has relied on the model developed by EIB Paris. The school gives great importance to how often and how long lessons are for students, as well as their progress and their ability to learn foreign languages from the earliest age. A slight increase of time at school has allowed us to set up a progressive and differentiated teaching and learning schedule.
Calendar of the year
School Calendar EFI follows the school calendar of the French schools in Morocco as defined by the French Embassy. The first day of school, school holidays, and public holidays are the same as other French schools.
