Educational programs offered by our private school in Paris
Our international private school in Paris provides a bilingual and personalized educational environment at every stage of a child's academic journey, across all ages thanks to three different schools, from nursery through to the end of secondary school.
A nursery school
Starting from the very first year, our private nursery school offers bilingual education, delivered equally in French and English. English language learning is made accessible and enjoyable through qualified native English-speaking teachers who use teaching methods tailored to young children. The programs follow the national education guidelines, with a variety of activities that include theoretical learning, hands-on and artistic workshops, as well as sports lessons, all taught in both languages.
A primary school
To ensure personalized learning, the number of students in our primary school classes is limited to twenty per class. Our approach focuses on developing strong academic knowledge while fostering the personal growth of each student. Individual and group learning moments are seamlessly integrated. At our international private school in Paris, we pay close attention to the emotional and academic needs of every child, adapting educational tools accordingly to what they need. English language is taught daily, and three hours of sports are provided each week by a specialist teacher. Additionally, students benefit from weekly workshops exploring musical culture, cinema, and media.
An innovative secondary school
Our international private secondary school in Paris, accessible to children with High Intellectual Potential (HPI), offers personalized education across four levels, from sixth to ninth grade. Two programs are available: a bilingual curriculum in English and French, and a sports, arts, and studies curriculum. The school is dedicated to developing students' social and emotional skills, instilling values such as altruism and kindness. At the end of secondary school, students can take the Brevet exam and are prepared to enter the public or private high school of their choice.
Support for gifted children
Setting ourselves apart from other schools, supporting gifted children is a key aspect of our international private school in Paris. Giftedness often comes with a different intellectual approach and heightened sensitivity. Our international private school provides a supportive and reassuring environment, with teachers specially trained to meet these specific needs. We also welcome children with learning difficulties such as dysorthography or dyspraxia, offering them a stimulating and nurturing setting in which they can thrive and succeed in their academic journey.
At the international private school École Galilée, each child receives special attention and a high-quality education, fostering their overall development and well-being in a bilingual and multicultural world.

A wonderful school where it's a joy to be!
