Whether in kindergarten, elementary or middle school, we prioritize student well-being while maintaining high academic standards. Our method is based on differentiation, reimagined teaching tools, and a holistic approach to supporting each child and adolescent.
Differentiation in Small Class Sizes
Differentiation requires rethinking the traditional school framework (class sizes, schedules, tools, and learning materials). The goal is to help our students meet or exceed curriculum objectives through adapted methods. In our bilingual schools in Clichy-Levallois and Bois-Colombes, class sizes are kept small, with a maximum of 18 to 20 students. Our differentiated method involves individualized learning paths and personalized attention within the group. Each student is supported by a dedicated tutor. Tailored exercises and assignments are provided to each student, and assessments identify strengths and areas for improvement, offering clear and reassuring indicators of progress. Our students are also encouraged to collaborate within their groups. Situations of mutual aid, peer tutoring, and collective motivation are powerful learning facilitators. Families have access to weekly progress updates online.
Holistic Support and Homework Completed at School
Homework is individualized for each subject and completed within the school with the help of adult supervisors, who provide assistance when needed. The time saved allows students to enjoy relaxation, extracurricular activities, or quality family time. However, students are expected to review lessons, finish projects, and engage in regular study at home.
Digital Tools to Enhance Learning
We complement teachers’ tools with digital resources that students are gradually introduced to, with access to laptops based on their age. The use of digital tools is balanced according to the child’s age and is integrated thoughtfully to enhance learning. Screen time is limited to protect students’ cognitive development, well-being, and health. Starting in elementary school and continuing throughout their education, children are trained in the use of digital tools and critical evaluation of information sources. Beyond simple digital use, specific software modules are employed to develop and reinforce certain skills through memorization exercises and training.
Support for Gifted Children
Our pedagogical practices, based on differentiation, active listening, and care, along with our trained staff and adapted tools, provide significant advantages for the well-being and development of gifted students. The goal is to allow them to progress at their own pace, manage their anxiety, and fully express their imagination, curiosity, and creativity. From Kindergarten or elementary to middle school, high-potential students, who tend to perceive the world in a holistic way, are stimulated through interdisciplinary projects and occasional mixed-age group activities. Regular check-ins are held to assess their progress and address any challenges, whether in terms of social interaction or academic performance.
We also offer a specific program for gifted students experiencing school phobia within the traditional curriculum. This program is tailored on a case-by-case basis in collaboration with the child or adolescent, their parents, the educational team, and external partners.
