The school teaches in English across the curriculum. Mandarin is taught from Foundation Stage and is part of the daily language offering for all students from Pre-Nursery onwards. English is the lingua franca; English as an Additional Language (EAL) support is available for learners who are not yet fluent in English, with an immersive English-speaking environment to support language development. In addition to English and Mandarin, modern foreign language classes are offered in French, Spanish, German and Korean. Students study two languages of their choice from Mandarin, French, German and Spanish, and native Mandarin speakers have additional Mandarin lessons to maintain language proficiency.
