LA PETITE ECOLE IN SINGAPORE
La Petite Ecole in Singapore
La Petite Ecole in Singapore is a multilingual school for children from 2 to 10 years old.
Created in 2012 and located in Holland Village since January 2024, it offers a multilingual environment (French, English and Mandarin). The school is approved by the French Ministry of Education and is part of the Odyssey Education group, giving it access to an exceptional international educational network.
La Petite Ecole in Singapore focuses on personal fulfilment, creativity and the development of essential skills for children’s future.
School curriculum and programmes
La Petite Ecole in Singapore follows the French national education curriculum, taught in 3 languages.
In Kindergarten, a team of three teachers plan and deliver the French curriculum in their language of instruction (English, French or Mandarin). The French-speaking teacher and the teaching assistant are always present with the class, accompanied by either the English-speaking teacher or the Chinese-speaking teacher, who alternate mid-day. This co-teaching approach is perfectly integrated, guaranteeing rapid and frequent transitions between languages and codes.
La Petite Ecole in Singapore offers exceptional teaching practices up to Cycle 3. In elementary school, children will continue to thrive in a multilingual environment, with English and French as the main languages, complemented by 3 hours of Mandarin instruction each week.
