Prunelle School Montessori Bilingual provides a Montessori bilingual education for children aged 2 to 12 across two campuses, Levallois-Perret and Puteaux-La Défense. The school uses a human-scale environment with a low student–teacher ratio and tailor-made learning pathways. It follows the Montessori method with English and French instruction delivered by native-speaking educators from nursery onward. The curriculum unfolds in three stages: Pre-Primary (2–3), Primary (3–6), and Elementary (6–12). In the early years, students explore Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Mathematics, and Cultural Activities; in Elementary, they study geography, science, history, biology, botany, and zoology through the Great Lessons. The Cosmic Education framework emphasizes community, curiosity, and real-world connections. Facilities include a multi-purpose gym, nearby swimming pool, and a park for outdoor learning. Extracurriculars feature weekly English language activities, a year-round Day Camp with arts and sports, and clubs that connect language and culture. Prunelle is affiliated with AMF and AMI.
