La Nouvelle École : A bilingual education that opens every door
We value language as connection, encouraging children to think, play, and create in both languages.
Nature at the heart of our pedagogy
A unique programme to nurture children's awareness of nature. Our international bilingual school in Paris and Geneva strives to be a positive contributor to communities, animals and the planet, both locally and globally.
Small Bilingual Classes
With small class sizes, our international bilingual school in Paris and Geneva provides one-on-one learning that fosters personalised education through hands-on experiences and collaboration.
Inclusive Education
We believe that every child deserves a supportive and inclusive environment. We celebrate diversity and ensure that all students feel valued and respected, regardless of their background or abilities.

A unique approach for a fulfilling learning experience
Dual academic programme
In Geneva, we teach a double curriculum, combining the Swiss National Curriculum (PER) with the English (UK) National Curriculum.
In Paris, we teach the French National Curriculum enriched with the UK Early Years Foundation Stage programme.
It’s a bilingual approach that enables our learners to transition into different education systems, in France, Switzerland and abroad.
An education focused on children's development
Our mission is to nurture children's natural curiosity, give them self-confidence and provide them with a caring, structured environment. Thanks to individualised teaching, each student progresses at his or her own pace, in a stimulating and encouraging environment.
Learning through play and exploration
Educational neuroscience research shows that learning through play stimulates curiosity and promotes understanding. Through experimental and sensory activities, children discover the world while developing essential skills such as creativity, problem-solving and independence.
