The Curriculum
French and English bilingual teaching of the French curriculum inspired by the British education system. After three years, children should be speaking both languages fluently and with equal ease.
Games and the Arts
Sports and arts are part of the curriculum. Weekly ballet, music and visual arts and history of arts classes, culminating in the Le Musée des Petits pop-up gallery. These classes are taught by teachers specialised in their field.
Pastoral Care
Working with very young minds and hearts, we are acutely aware of how important it is to create an environment where pupils and staff can thrive not only academically, but also personally and emotionally. Our dedicated team places great importance on instilling timeless values, fostering a positive and family-feel atmosphere. We aim to build resilience and enhance emotional intelligence through a range of stimulating activities such as assemblies, Friendship Day and workshops on emotions.
Headteacher’s Philosophy
My aim is for every child to be happy at school. Each child must be given the chance and receive encouragement to progress and succeed at their own pace. Self-confidence and trust in the community are crucial. Helping others and receiving their support are equally important.
