Languages taught include French and English across the two sections. The French Section follows the French National Curriculum from CP to 6th Grade and teaches all subjects in French, with three hours per week of English as a second language; German is introduced from CM1. The British Section uses the UK National Curriculum from Nursery to Prep; the Early Years is bilingual following both the UK and French curricula. Cambridge English Qualifications are offered for non-native English speakers.
Pré fleuri offers a bilingual French-English education. All subjects are taught in French; English is taught as a second language for three hours per week by English-speaking teachers. An afternoon bilingual programme merges French and English classes, with Geography, History and Moral & Civic Education taught in French by French teachers, and Science and Computing taught in English by English teachers. From CM1, German is introduced to meet the Swiss program.
Immersion in both languages is a core aspect of Préfleuri. The English and French sections provide frequent opportunities to be immersed in each language throughout the day. In the British Section, the English programme follows the UK National Curriculum and aims to prepare pupils to graduate into top secondary schools. Daily program includes mornings with three hours of structured English as a second language and afternoons with a bilingual French/English programme where Geography and History are taught in French and Science and Computing are taught in English, with classes merged by age.
