The Bilingual Montessori School of Paris - Orsay Campus, established in 1972, provides a co-educational environment for children aged 2 to 12. Located southwest of the capital near the Paris-Saclay innovation hub, the school operates out of a residential facility featuring a private garden used for nature-based activities and daily play. The curriculum follows the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) standards, utilizing specialized tactile materials to teach mathematics, language, and practical life skills. A unique feature of the Orsay campus is its 50/50 bilingual immersion model; each classroom is staffed by two full-time teachers—one a native English speaker and the other a native French speaker—allowing children to acquire both languages through daily interaction rather than formal lessons. The school is known for its multi-age classrooms, where older students mentor younger peers. Facilities include specific areas for the "Maison des Enfants" (ages 3-6) and a dedicated Primary section for students up to age 12.
