From ages 2 to 11, instruction is delivered in French and English, in either a bilingual format or single-language pathways. English as a Second Language is offered with Cambridge Young Learners preparation; French as a Foreign Language is offered with DELF preparation. Optional Chinese and Spanish classes are available during school hours, with exam preparation for HSK and Cervantes. All classes are taught by native teachers, and language instruction is tailored to each learner.
The school offers a bilingual French-English education from kindergarten through primary school. The program serves children aged 2 to 11, with instruction available in French, English, or a bilingual format. The bilingual approach fosters fluency in both languages and global awareness in a multicultural environment.
In the international kindergarten, daily immersion in English and French is provided. Two days per week are taught in French and two days per week in English; each teacher speaks only in their mother tongue to maintain immersion. Chinese and Spanish can be chosen as an extra language course.
