General Contact PageL'ermitage - International School Of France:
Founded in 1941, L'Ermitage - International School of France is a co-educational day school, 5 and 7-day boarding school located in the historic park of Maisons-Laffitte, just 15 kilometres west of Paris. Welcoming students from close to 40 nationalities from ages 3 to 18, the school proposes a bilingual programme of instruction in French and English within the French national curriculum.

Courses / Programs:
Preschool, Lower (Primary) School, Middle School, Upper School

Pre-school and primary school pupils can participate in fully bilingual classes (English teacher in the morning, a French teacher in the afternoon), while francophone primary classes (year groups 1-6) receive 5 hours of English per week with special adaptation classes for native English-speakers.

In the Middle School (year groups 7-9), pupils can study history, science and civilisation courses in English as well as a second foreign language (Chinese, GeGeneral Contact Pagerman or Spanish). Non-bilingual pupils who have not benefited from the Lower School Franco-English programme can also follow an intensive English course. The Brevet des Collèges diploma is taken by Francophone pupils at the end of 3ème (year group 10), whilst the International Brevet option is offered to bilingual pupils. Anglophone pupils or those of a sufficiently high level in English can study for the International GCSE.

The Upper School prepares students aged 16 to 18 for the French Baccalaureate (Economic, Literary and Scientific sections) and the International Option of the French Baccalaureate (American Section). L'Ermitage also offers the British A-Level diploma, enabling pupils to take 4 subjects from a choice of 8 entirely in English, as well as a variety of common core subjects (IT, Media Studies, French Civilisation and European Studies).

Students can choose from a wide variety of outings and cultural activities and participate in different clubs, sporting competitions, community service projects, human aid initiatives and international conferences. Numerous exchanges are also offered with partner schools from the USA, Europe and Asia.

Non French-speaking students arriving from abroad can benefit from adaptation classes during their first year of stay in France, helping to contribute to the family atmosphere for day school and boarding school pupils alike.

The school makes every effort to integrate computer technology into the classroom (wireless, high-speed internet network, an intranet service, an extensive range of computer facilities including interactive whiteboards and a 150-strong computer park) in order to enhance the creativity and innovation of its teachers and students alike.

L'Ermitage also benefits from an association with the internationally-renowned Global Connections foundation and in 2005 became the first ever French school to join Round Square.
