Language Provision

English and French are the languages of instruction. The nursery offers Baby English workshops; bilingual kindergarten has classes taught in French or English with two teachers per class; from CP to CM2, international elementary provides bilingual instruction with 18 students per class and two teachers. Since September 2024, the innovative international middle school serves grades 6–9 in small 18-student classes with pathways in languages, arts and sports.

Bilingual Teaching

The school offers bilingual teaching in French and English. In the bilingual kindergarten, 18 students per class are taught in two language-specific classes (one in French, one in English) and supervised by two teachers. Learning is based on concrete, active methods including Montessori; a pre-school class for 2–3 year-olds is being considered for January 2026.

Esclaibes International School Marseille offers a bilingual, Montessori-inspired education for ages 0 to 16 at a dedicated Marseille 12e campus. The creche (0–3) uses Montessori Nido environments, while bilingual kindergarten and primary years (CP to CM2) run with two teachers per class in French and English, 18 pupils per class, and concrete, active learning aligned with official curricula. Since September 2024, the Innovative International Middle School serves 6e to 3e in small multi-age classes of 18, with mornings focused on core subjects and afternoons offering pathways in languages, arts and sports, all under a project-based, debate- and experiment-rich approach that prepares students for the Brevet. Facilities include bright rooms, motor-skills areas and a large private courtyard, with lunch options and a protective, family-friendly environment. Extracurriculars span culture, sport and charitable action, including music, art and cooking workshops, fundraising for Mécénat Chirurgie Cardiaque and after-school bilingual workshops for families and communities.
