Philosophy:

Photo of International School in South of FranceThe International School of Béarn provides an education based on international principles and values such as responsibility, understanding and co-operation. The programme is taught in the English language and is structured around an academically challenging curriculum. We believe that the development of values and curriculum go hand in hand and that individual skills and abilities should be encouraged and nurtured in an atmosphere that provides support for each student’s personal needs and which celebrates and respects all differences of nationality, culture and religion. The effectiveness of implementing this philosophy is articulated through a series of inter-related responsibilities for all members of the community – and is evidenced by our vision of the entire community’s responsibility to the world in which we live.
