Bom dia,

Peço ajuda para o termo acima. O mesmo foi encontrado em um Histórico Escolar e pesquisei na internet e verifiquei que não quer dizer Bacharelado em Frances. Existem o "French Baccalaureate" e o "International Baccalaureate". Alguém teria alguma ideia do equivalente aqui no Brasil?

Grata
Gracinda

Diploma frances de escola secundaria


Explanation:
Apparently, the French system brings a secondary school, or a middle school, which has four years instead of three (the traditional three plus what is called 8th grade in Brazil).
Just see the link I have pasted here.
We should always try to copy the sound and shape of the original expression.
Notice that my link still refers to a school, not a university, so that I chose 'escola secundaria'.
I thought of saying College, but, in Brazil, Primary School is also inside of the Colegios at least sometimes, so that this is clearer.

I actually refined the expression to 'diploma de escola secundaria do tipo frances' because I think that if we say Secondary School Diploma of the French Type we are actually saying it is not necessarily a French Diploma, but a Diploma in the French Style, which I think is more what we want, since they have it in the USA, for instance (link that I have posted to you). Oh, well, it all depends on the context. I am definitely a contextualist, so there we go: If the person got it in France, then the first option I gave you is the most adequate one. If the person got it outside of France, then the second option is the most adequate one, I suppose. I am willing to discuss this one, so you can write to me.
