Intro

Our courses span across 10 school levels, starting at the “Grande maternelle” and ending with the “Brevet des collèges”. The curriculum is fully accredited by the French Ministry of Education and is internationally recognized.

Small classes and an innovative teaching framework enable us to meet each child at his or her developmental level and to closely monitor its progress. The programme is also very popular among non-French speaking students who wish to study a year abroad and learn a new language. Selected sport and culturalactivities are offered every day after class and during weekends.

  3. Summer camps
