Learning support

The school emphasizes a heterogeneous classroom environment, which it believes stimulates the learning process and fosters social competence. Teachers provide individualized attention through regular meetings with students to discuss their responsibilities, effort, and attitudes toward work. Evaluation is conducted without marks or pressure, relying instead on detailed written reports that describe a student's behavior and progress in each subject.

Admissions

The school admits students based on space availability, age, and an assessment of their physical, emotional, and intellectual development. Because the school seeks to reflect the social structure of society, it considers each child as an individual rather than applying rigid acceptance rules. Prospective families must submit a detailed application form with a photo, after which the class teacher may arrange an appointment for an evaluation. While primary and secondary levels often maintain a waiting list, the school encourages interested families to apply.

Calendar

The school follows the public school holiday schedule in Luxembourg, with the exception of the autumn break, which lasts two weeks instead of one. The academic year includes standard breaks for Christmas, Carnival, Easter, Pentecost, and summer, alongside national public holidays such as Labour Day, Ascension Day, and National Day.
