02. learning techniques

• The CEIAG programme aims to help students plan and manage their careers effectively, ensuring progression which is ambitious and aspirational. This robust careers programme helps avoid disengagement, puts school learning into a wider and more relevant context, and helps raise aspirations.

• In Primary, students are taught half the week in English and half the week in their “stream language” (French, German, or Spanish).

• In Secondary, the school offers the Internation Baccalaureate Diploma Programme + A Levels path

03. objectives

• To produce students fluent (or highly competent) in at least two or three languages, literate and confident in them

• Multicultural, multilingual environment; students from many linguistic backgrounds, putting value on global citizenship.

• Emphasis on sciences and rigorous academic standards, while keeping the rounded, internationally minded education

04. student selection

Since the school is non-selective, there is no academic test or entrance exam for most of the places. But language stream selection might have some preferences

scholarships

Because it is state-funded, there are no traditional scholarships; however, there is a school fund / voluntary donation scheme to support extra and supplementary activities. Moreover, there are not tuition fees, it's free for students.

admissions

The school is not selective. For Reception admissions, they admit 90 students per year, over three classes, with streaming by language choice (French/English; German/English; Spanish/English)

05. ambition

I would like to work at this school because I find working in a multilingual school interesting and rewarding, both for the students and for us teachers. Moreover, the opportunity to work with students of different ages (elementary → middle school → high school) provides a more comprehensive view of their progress and ensures a certain degree of continuity. I think that as a native French speaker, I could help teachers with the French language, but also with its entire culture.

International or virtual exchanges with schools in continental Europe (in French, Spanish, German) to give students a real-life context for communication, by post or email, and perhaps even try to raise money with the children to organize an exchange trip
