École Bilingue Chardin is a private bilingual preschool and elementary school in Paris's 16th arrondissement, offering a French and Montessori curriculum for children aged 1 to 12. The school operates on two main campuses at 7 and 11 Rue Chardin, with a third site at the Mona Bismarck Hotel for sports and events, near the Eiffel Tower and Trocadéro. The bilingual English–French program includes a bilingual literacy track and class sizes capped at 20, with two teachers per bilingual class (one native English speaker and one French speaker). The 2-year-old bilingual section follows Montessori pedagogy, emphasizing practical life, language, and sensorimotor activities. Facilities include brand-new classrooms, a bilingual library, dedicated art and sports spaces, a soundproof canteen, and murals by contemporary artists. Partnerships with Musée en Herbe and Galerie Mennour enrich art experiences. After-school care and holiday programs extend learning beyond the day. Classes emphasize language, math, arts and sport.
