École Montessori Bilingue de Saint-Cloud is a private Montessori school for children aged 2 to 11, teaching in French and English from preschool through primary. Preschool (2½–5) uses mixed-age classes of 10–14 with two teachers (one French-speaking and one English-speaking) sharing responsibility in a 50/50 language split. The daily routine blends Montessori materials with language workshops and recess to support immersion. Primary starts at age 5 in a two-year CP cycle, with small classes (15–18) organized in mixed-grade groups (CP2–CP, CE1–CE2, CM1–CM2) to foster autonomy and independent learning; there is no written homework at home. Daily English instruction is provided by native English-speaking teachers, with English taught progressively from CP2 and many subjects taught in English in CM. The campus covers just over 400 m² around a 600 m² tree-lined courtyard and includes a Montessori Square, a large library, three preschool classrooms, four elementary classrooms, and a computer workshop. The school welcomes about 100 children from diverse nationalities and prioritizes accessibility and ventilation.
