Minors may only stay in vetted host families on half or full board, controlled through a quality charter, inspection visits and student questionnaires. Hosts walk students to school on day one, teachers and counsellors supervise all activities and excursions, and a signed parental liability agreement is mandatory before a minor can join class. Note this is a city language school with free time, not a closed campus.

Accent Français runs French courses for teenagers in the centre of Montpellier — a young, largely pedestrian university city ten minutes from Mediterranean beaches. Teens study at the school on rue de Verdun and live with carefully vetted French host families, the only accommodation permitted for minors, always on half or full board. There are two teen programmes. The all-inclusive Junior & Teens Summer Pack combines twenty lessons a week with a supervised activity and excursion programme and host family full board, with weekday lunches at partner restaurants; it runs through the summer months with any Monday start. The year-round Juniors Standard Course is twenty-four lessons a week — twenty in a group plus four of tutoring and workshop — starting every Monday all year, with a short winter closure and French bank holidays, when an excursion replaces classes. Classes are capped at fifteen and start from complete beginner level, with set start dates for absolute beginners. There are weekly evaluations, a final test and a level certificate; the TCF exam is optional. French with High School Diploma preparation is also offered. Accommodation for the standard course is booked separately from the tuition. Best for motivated older teens who want real language immersion in a lively student city — either a fully organised summer package or flexible year-round study — rather than a fenced-campus junior camp. Parents should check availability, host family details and the board basis, and the supervision arrangements outside class: this is a city language school with free time, not a closed campus.

About the Course
Two teen programmes. The all-inclusive Junior & Teens Summer Pack: twenty lessons a week plus a supervised activity and excursion programme and host family full board, available through the summer months with any Monday start. The year-round Juniors Standard Course: twenty-four lessons a week — twenty in a group plus four of tutoring and workshop — every Monday all year. Lessons run forty-five minutes, classes are capped at fifteen, and entry starts from complete beginner, with set start dates for absolute beginners. Weekly evaluations, a final test and a level certificate; the TCF exam is optional. French with High School Diploma preparation is also offered.
What’s Included
The Summer Pack is all-inclusive: courses, activities, excursions and host family full board. The Standard Course covers tuition only — accommodation is booked separately. A registration fee applies per booking; it is listed under extras with the current amount. The school closes on French bank holidays, when an excursion is offered instead, and for a short break over the winter holidays.
Accommodation
For safety, minor students may only stay with French host families, on half or full board. Families are selected on availability, comfort and location under a quality charter, with control visits and end-of-stay questionnaires; most are between a ten-minute walk and a forty-minute tram ride from the school. Hosts accompany students to school on the first day. For students not on the all-inclusive pack, host family accommodation is booked separately — single or shared room, half board — and both options are listed under extras with their current weekly rates.
Meal Plan
Summer Pack: full board — breakfast and dinner with the host family, weekday lunches at partner restaurants, weekend lunches with the family. Standard course: half or full board with the host family. Special diets — halal, kosher, gluten-free, lactose-free, vegan — are available on full board as a paid supplement, listed under extras.
Activities & Excursions
Supervised programme included in the Summer Pack and available à la carte on other courses: afternoon and evening activities and excursions run by qualified counsellors — beach outings, cultural visits and regional excursions from a city ten minutes from Mediterranean beaches.
Facilities
City-centre school on rue de Verdun, by the Place de la Comédie: modern classrooms in a pedestrian district with excellent public transport; shops and the beach within easy reach.
Camp Experience
A long-established Montpellier school for international students, with native graduate teachers experienced in teaching juniors, a structured learning path — written test before arrival, oral test on site, weekly skill evaluations — and a signed parental liability agreement required for all minors.
