\nOur unique preschool programme created for children aged 3 to 6, provides a smooth transition from home to school and promotes the early learning of language skills.<\/p>\n
\nThe IIL Primary school provides an ideal environment for children to learn, play and grow. We welcome children aged 6 to 11 in three sections: French, English and Bilingual. Students join an international, multicultural and welcoming community of their peers, supervised by an equally diverse teaching staff.<\/p>\n
\nThe IIL Secondary school welcomes students aged 11 to 19 in two sections. Our French section follows the French national curriculum, leading to the French National Brevet Diploma (dipl\u00f4me national du brevet) and Baccalaureate.<\/p>\n
\nIn order to best support our students in their schooling and in line with our values of respect and tolerance, we are actively working to prevent bullying through the programme KiVa.
\nOur anti-bullying programme goes beyond simple conflict resolution. It is based on three pillars: prevention, intervention and monitoring. All IIL Primary and Secondary school students benefit from preventive courses based on the values of empathy, tolerance, and respect for differences. This programme extends beyond the classroom as every staff member at IIL has been trained and empowered to recognise and intervene.<\/p>\n
\nIIL Camps offers a large variety of camps for children aged 3 to 17 during school vacations:<\/p>\n
