Welcome to the Primary School!
Using the latest education technologies in our spacious classrooms, your child will follow the Primary Years Programme of the International Baccalaureate. This innovative and demanding programme aims to educate curious learners, supporting their autonomy and competency both as individuals and as a part of a dynamic learning community. It is provided to all our students bilingually, in English and French, with a progressive approach to bilingualism.
