It is part of the AEFE network and provides a continuous, multilingual education from kindergarten through the fifth grade (CM2), with a pedagogical pathway leading to the German-French Abitur at the nearby German-French Gymnasium (DFG).
Curriculum
Teaching approach
The school's educational project for 2023–2028 is built on three pillars: linguistic excellence in French, German, and English; the integration of digital innovation into the learning process; and the provision of an inclusive environment with attentive, individual support for every student. It aims to prepare children for a multicultural world by fostering knowledge and values.
Programmes
The school follows the French curriculum, organized into three cycles: Cycle 1 (kindergarten), Cycle 2 (CP, CE1, CE2), and Cycle 3 (CM1, CM2). The academic program includes daily German instruction (five hours of language and two hours of social studies per week) and the introduction of English starting in the first grade (CP). The school provides a pedagogical continuum that allows students to continue their education in the French-speaking branch of the German-French Gymnasium after completing the fifth grade.

Learning support
The school maintains an inclusive environment with a focus on individual student support. It implements the "pHARe" anti-bullying program to ensure a safe school climate.
