We process applications on a first-come, first-served basis, so we recommend that you apply as early as possible to benefit from the best availability of places. Priority is given to siblings of current pupils, and to staff members’ children. To enrol your child, please follow this procedure:
Fill in the registration form and return it with the payment of the registration fee of 100 euros in order for the school to register the child.
Please note that in compliance with French educational practice, a child must have his or her second birthday during the calendar year of entry into the Très Petite section de Maternelle and his or her third birthday in the calendar year of entry into Petite Section de Maternelle , and so on for other classes.
From January and before the start of the school in September, families will be \_contacted when and if a place becomes available and the school will send an email confirming that the child has ben accepted. To secure the place, you will need to fill an acceptance form and pay, an admission fee of 1500 euros. This fee is not refundable whether a child does take up a place at the School or not.
In order for children to benefit fully from our trilingual education, we ask that the three languages (English, Portuguese and French) be spoken at home if at all possible (nanny, babysitter, etc).
