Primary pupils listening to their teacher in class

Primary School

Two full curricula, every day: the French system and the English system, side by side.

Mon – Fri · 8 AM – 3 PMPrimary 1 – 6 · CP – CM2English & Français

The programme

Two systems, one timetable.

After the early years, primary pupils follow two complete curricula: the French system (EDUCMASTER) and the English system (NERDC, the Nigerian Educational Research and Development Council).

Every day includes teaching under both frameworks, with a literacy period in each language. Children grow into balanced bilinguals with strong foundations in every subject.

Small classes let teachers follow each child closely and know their strengths and needs.
