Our boarding houses

Boarding life at IBS of Provence offers students a unique opportunity to experience what the french call “convivialité”, with other students who come from diverse cultures, countries and linguistic communities.

The close proximity enjoyed between students of diverse nationalities fosters language learning and cultural awareness.

Distribution of rooms in Boarding houses of IBS of Provence :

In this way, our boarding houses provide students with a friendly, family-style atmosphere – a place of authentic “life together”.

Designed on the concept of a family home, under the watchful eye of supervisors,  the boarding section is an extension of the school day in a convivial atmosphere alternating between study periods, meals and leisure time.

Five boarding houses accomodate students in rooms of four and students are encouraged to respect the basic rules of communal life; consideration for others, punctuality, personal hygiene and tidiness…

Our five IBS of Provence’s boarding houses accommodate boarders in rooms of two to five. Student rooms are organized by gender and age range, and languages/nationalities are mixed.

Our boarding houses are located outside campus (from 1min to 20min away) and a bus comes to pick up the students every morning for a nice breakfast on campus, and drops them off every day after dinner.

Some boarding houses have a swimming pool and one of them even has a tennis court, that boarding students at IBS Summer Camp can use after a camp day.
