A comprehensive progress review is conducted twice a year, covering progress against the National Education program and the child's emotional development. Mixed‑age classes foster collaboration, emulation, and the development of rich and respectful social relationships among students.
The school provides bilingual immersion in English and French. In every class, two educators (one francophone and one anglophone) accompany the children, integrating languages into learning and daily life. From age six, oral language development is complemented by written language.
Emotional development is taken into account in the pedagogical progress reviews, reflecting attention to students' mental wellbeing.
Montessori 21 Bilingual Schools is a network of ten Montessori campuses across France, plus a college with an adapted timetable. In each class two educators (one Francophone, one Anglophone) guide children, embedding English and French in learning. Classes are mixed-age, about 25–26 pupils, with AMI-trained staff, ensuring a bilingual immersion. From ages 2–6 the emphasis is on oral language; from age 6 written language arises; by age 9, English is used to teach subjects such as history and science. Each morning includes a 2.5–3 hour block of uninterrupted independent work, with Montessori materials organized by learning area. Progress is assessed twice a year through reviews covering French National Education program and emotional development. The network promotes autonomy, collaboration, wellbeing, and celebrates anglophone culture through traditions. Campuses include Aubervilliers-Villette, Paris-Jaurès, Nanterre, Courbevoie, Châtenay-Malabry, Marseille, Pau, Pantin Moderato, Plessis-Robinson, and Chaville. Extracurriculars include Afterschool programs, holiday camps, and Discovery Wednesdays for families.
