The curriculum is delivered through a bilingual immersion in English and French, with two teachers working in each language in small mixed groups, ensuring balanced language development.

The school aligns assessments with IB requirements and French national standards. A Montessori kindergarten program introduces five-year-olds to inquiry and collaboration, supported by native speakers who guide independent questioning and problem solving. The campus emphasizes arts and inquiry across subjects, integrates arts into each unit, and uses authentic materials. Located near Geneva, the school offers after‑school enrichment, ongoing learner supports, and a mission to foster curious, compassionate learners who contribute to a peaceful world. Families are warmly welcomed to participate in learning.
