Four bilingual campuses in the Paris area (Paris 15, Boulogne, Courbevoie, Puteaux). The schools are small to mid-sized, family-oriented institutions with a safe, calm, and nurturing environment. The campuses use Montessori-inspired settings for children aged 2 to 6 and continue Montessori principles into the elementary grades, offering a 50/50 bilingual English–French immersion. Class sizes are small to enable individualized pace and attention, with native English- and French-speaking educators. On-site extracurricular activities and services support busy families.
Montessori principles guide the classrooms across campuses, with a bilingual 50/50 immersion and a curriculum aligned with national and international standards. A dedicated team of educators includes Montessori-certified staff and bilingual instructors who implement active learning in small groups, enabling personalized support. In preschool, activities including early literacy and language development are conducted in both languages; in elementary, students engage with all subjects in both languages, often through cross-disciplinary projects, with a French as a Foreign Language option for non-French-speaking children. Beyond academics, social-emotional learning is included in the curriculum.
On-site bilingual extracurricular programs are provided in partnership with Pari Grandir, and include Happy Mercredi – Wednesday Clubs (art, yoga, theater, music, science), Holiday Camps, English Club, The Little Scientists, After-School (4:30 to 7:00), and Theater games and improv. All activities take place on-site.
Bim School Paris 15 serves children aged 2 to 9. The school implements a 50/50 bilingual immersion model where instruction alternates between English and French. The curriculum follows the French National Curriculum, enhanced by Montessori-inspired methods that focus on student autonomy. Literacy is developed using the Jolly Phonics program in the preschool years and Cambridge English materials for elementary students. Specifically, Science and portions of Mathematics are taught in English to ensure technical language acquisition. A unique feature of the school is its "Citizens of Tomorrow" program, a signature initiative designed to foster ecological awareness and social responsibility through collaborative projects. The Paris 15 campus consists of four distinct sections: one toddler class (ages 2-3), two kindergarten classes (ages 3-6), and an elementary section (ages 6-9). Facilities include tailored learning environments designed for concentration and calm.
