The school supports social and emotional development through a rich co-curricular life, with theatre, clubs, exchanges and trips led by teachers. Theatre builds students' confidence and self-esteem and develops collaboration and other soft skills. Debating Club, Model United Nations (MUN) and related activities further develop teamwork, eloquence and mediation skills.
The integrated program is designed for bilingual students and offers in-depth programs in English or German focusing on literature, languages, cultural values and the histories of Anglophone and Germanophone countries. As an International Section, two subjects are taught in English or German: literature and history-geography. Wednesday School and beginner language workshops (Active English & Der Deutschclub) provide additional English and German language opportunities.

SIS Paris Ouest offers bilingual education within the French education system, with Anglophone and Germanophone sections. The school operates across three host establishments in Sèvres, Boulogne-Billancourt and Saint-Cloud and serves over 1,300 students from kindergarten through lycée. It was founded in 1960 and remains an international section under the aegis of the French Ministry of National Education, employing about sixty teachers from English- or German-speaking countries. The curriculum combines the French national framework with Cambridge Secondary and Cambridge IGCSE, and the integrated programme is designed for bilingual students with mother-tongue-level language skills. Two disciplines—literature and history-geography—are taught in English or German, and the programme provides six hours of literacy, geography, history and science instruction. A Wednesday School offers morning workshops in English and German, and after-school language activities for younger students. Extracurriculars include Debating Club, Model United Nations and Parliament Européen, theatre productions (The Play/Die Bühne) and fundraisers and exchanges.
