Lessons at EIB Monceau bilingual Middle school can take place between 8.00 am and 6.00 pm, depending on each pupil’s timetable. This structure allows learning and activities to be spread out at a balanced pace throughout the day.

After lessons, our bilingual school offers a wide range of extracurricular activities (sports, arts, science or public speaking) organised in a supervised and stimulating environment. Pupils also develop their independence through the many clubs and societies created and run by the pupils themselves, for their peers.

EIB Monceau, a bilingual Middle school in the 17th and 8th arrondissements of Paris, makes it a point of honour to support new arrivals with kindness and care. Thanks to a structured, bilingual environment, every pupil receives personalised support designed to foster their development and success.

Admission to EIB Monceau, a bilingual Middle school in Paris, is based on an assessment of the application. Depending on the pupil’s profile, the school may deem it necessary to conduct an additional test. This personalised admission process enables us to better identify each pupil’s needs and offer tailored support.

Families wishing to plan ahead for entry to EIB Monceau bilingual Middle school can submit their application from October onwards. Given the limited number of places, applying early in the year maximises the chances of admission.

At EIB Monceau bilingual Middle school, all families are welcome, even if the parents are not bilingual. An understanding of French or English is an advantage when communicating with the teaching staff and monitoring your child’s progress, but it is not a requirement.

Around a quarter of lessons are taught in English, including modern foreign languages, history and geography, as well as certain specific modules such as ‘Media Global Issues’. This bilingual approach, which is being introduced gradually, helps to build pupils’ language skills in both languages throughout their school career.

From the start of 6ème (Year 7), pupils have the option to add a second modern language alongside English, choosing between Mandarin, Spanish, German or Italian. Depending on families’ preferences and the pupil’s level of English, a programme with some lessons taught in a foreign language may be offered, accounting for up to 43% of total teaching time, in accordance with the regulations applicable to state-funded schools.
