Fintosch International Kindergarten and Multilingual Primary School in Frankfurt provides a bilingual education for children aged three months to eleven years. Using a 50:50 immersion model, students learn in both German and English daily. The school integrates the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) with the local Hessian state curriculum, focusing on theme-based learning and practical skill development. Facilities include modern classrooms, a dedicated gym, and a library. A distinctive feature of the school is the "Entrance Level" program, which allows five-year-olds to complete the first year of primary school over a two-year period. This initiative gives children additional time to adjust to a structured learning environment and gain fluency in both languages through play-based activities. The school operates year-round from 7:45 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., offering a holiday program and afternoon activities such as abacus, judo, and violin, catering to the needs of international and working families.
