English and French are the languages taught. The school follows the English National Curriculum and the French Education Nationale program with parity between the two languages. EAL/FLE support is provided to help pupils learn English and French as additional languages, including differentiation and occasional Teaching Assistant support.
The school is a private independent primary bilingual (English/French) school welcoming pupils aged 3 to 10 years old. Pupils are taught English and French on a strict schedule parity basis. The school teaches both curricula: the National Curriculum of England and the Education Nationale French program.
Located in Kentish Town, La Petite Ecole Bilingue Kentish Town is a bilingual private primary school for ages 3 to 10. It offers a hybrid curriculum: the National Curriculum of England and the Education Nationale French programme, with English and French taught on parity. Two pedagogic coordinators ensure coherence between the two frameworks, and year groups run small, around 20 pupils. Learning is anchored in cross-curricular projects and project-based teaching, with school outings to enrich understanding. The school day runs from 8:25 to 16:00, with shorter Wednesday hours and a nap in Nursery. Language of instruction alternates every half day, embedding language learning in daily activity. Extracurriculars include PE on Mondays and Thursdays, Choir on Tuesdays, and Coding on Thursdays; after-school care 16:00-18:30 and a weekly Wednesday Club (limited to 12). The school is part of a small three-school group (London and Paris) and is not AEFE-affiliated.
