The Health and Citizenship Committee (CESC) institutes educational projects on health, sexuality, and the prevention of risky behaviours. Education Councils seek to improve teaching conditions and promote positive relationships, and to strengthen the European character of the school.
The school helps pupils with learning difficulties by providing appropriate aids and integrates pupils with special needs in the regular class wherever possible by defining appropriate methods of integration; internal differentiation supports pupils who learn differently.
The school is organised into three linguistic sections: English-speaking, French-speaking, and German-speaking. In the German-speaking section, students may choose French or English as the second teaching language (L2). L2 becomes the second teaching language from S3, with History and Geography taught in L2.
Health education and citizenship education include programs on health and sexuality and the prevention of risky behaviours, contributing to pupils' wellbeing.
The European School Strasbourg is a public local institution of international education (EPLEI) serving pupils from age 4 to 18. It operates in Strasbourg's European Quarter with three linguistic sections: German-speaking, English-speaking and French-speaking, delivering the European School curriculum with identical syllabuses across sections. Nursery to primary to S7 culminate in the European Baccalaureate, a qualification recognised across the EU and in many other countries; the Examining Board is chaired by a university professor and includes examiners from EU countries. The school began in 2008, moved to its current site in 2015 and has been an EPLEI since 2019 under the European School Office standards, awarding the Baccalaureate. Facilities include dedicated spaces for arts, music, ICT and a teaching kitchen in the early years, plus a library in three languages and a gym with a dance room. A daily school menu with dietary accommodations is offered, and after-school care is available. Extracurriculars include Robotic Workshops, eTwinning projects, cultural events such as a Viennese Ball and sport-related activities and trips.
