lycée

French pupils spend the last three years of their secondary education at a lycée, where they sit their "baccalauréat" before leaving school or going on to higher education. There are various types of lycée, including the "lycées d'enseignement technologique", providing technical courses, and "lycées d'enseignement professionnel", providing vocational courses. Some lycées, particularly those with a wide catchment area or those which run specialist courses, have boarding facilities.
