Bilingual primary education and early years

ICS uses a 50:50 weekly English and French balance and offers the IB Primary Years Programme. Early years includes a class for two-year-olds and provision through age five. Learning combines enquiry, STEAM and outdoor activities. The school’s offer is early years and primary; its explanation of the wider IB system does not mean it teaches senior IB programmes.

Language and specialist help are separate charges

The fees page lists French-language, English-language and special educational needs support as extra costs. Families should ask which service the child requires and whether it is available. The school’s wellbeing approach includes early help and partnership with parents, but the exact support plan should be agreed during admission.
