Primary School
(from 1st to 5th grade)

Our primary school aims to provide optimal academic and social development of students within a unique bilingual environment in Paris. Our classes offer complete immersion with a half-day in French and a half-day in English, integrating the French Education Nationale program and the American Core Curriculum. Our small classes allow teachers to offer learning techniques adapted to each student with language support lessons also available in both languages for those who need more attention.

Each class explores an annual theme integrated into each subject with field trips organized throughout the year to support a diversified learning approach as it allows students to develop their knowledge outside the classroom and favor their intellectual curiosty. Our approach favors innovative methods highlighting collaborative work groups that encourage students to take initiative by working independently from their teachers.

Alongside our rigorous academic program, we also strive to provide opportunities for personal development by helping our students work on their self-esteem, acquire good habits, inspire their spirit of discovery and construct their understanding of social and cultural diversity. Self-confidence and respect for others provide an indisputable basis for creating a positive environment, and with more than 20 native languages spoken and more than 15 nationalities represented in our establishment, The Lennen Bilingual School makes cultural diversity a fundamental value for school.
