Primary school: An education geared towards the future

Collaborative projects between primary and secondary schools

A bilingual education to learn, grow and flourish

At ASEICA, our primary program combines the excellence of the French curriculum with an international approach to teaching English. In a stimulating bilingual environment, students develop their academic knowledge, self-confidence, and global awareness.


Collaborative projects between primary and secondary schools

English writing project

Throughout the year, primary and secondary school students participate in joint creative writing activities.

Through interviews, shared readings and storytelling workshops, younger children inspire older children who then use their ideas to create original and imaginative stories.

These exchanges strengthen the sense of belonging to the same school community while giving meaning to learning to read and write.


European History-Geography Project

Primary and secondary school students work together on projects dedicated to Europe.

On the agenda:

  • Interactive quizzes; ;
  • Educational games; ;
  • Cultural workshops; ;
  • Discovering European countries.

These activities allow students to enrich their knowledge while developing their communication, cooperation, and leadership skills.


A smooth transition to 6th grade

Entering secondary school is an important step in the educational journey.

To support this transition, ASEICA is implementing a structured program allowing future 6th grade students to gradually discover their new environment.

The teachers from the middle school regularly visit the primary school classes so that the students can get to know their future teachers and become familiar with the expectations and working methods of the middle school.

This approach promotes confidence, reduces apprehensions and ensures educational continuity between the two cycles.


Culture, creativity and bilingual learning

Cultural and linguistic diversity is at the heart of ASEICA's life.

Throughout the year, students participate in creative projects and unifying events that encourage curiosity, collaboration, and bilingual expression.


Events that bring people together

Among the highlights of the year:

🎃 Halloween

🎄 Christmas celebrations

☘️ Saint Patrick's Day

These events bring together students, families and educational teams in a spirit of sharing, creativity and conviviality.


International Day: Celebrating the world

International Day is one of the most anticipated moments of the year.

Students discover different countries and cultures through interactive booths, themed activities and cultural passports that accompany them on their journey around the world.

This day promotes international openness, respect for diversity and a sense of belonging to a global community.


An education geared towards the future

Through its bilingual program, collaborative projects and cultural experiences, ASEICA offers students a stimulating, inclusive and globally minded learning environment.

Our ambition is to support each child in their academic, personal and linguistic development so that they can grow up with confidence, curiosity and ambition in a truly international context.

A solid and balanced bilingual program

The ASEICA primary program follows the official French national education curriculum. Core subjects, such as mathematics, science, and French, are taught in accordance with national expectations.

English is developed through an international approach inspired by English-language programs and integrated into several learning areas.

This combination allows students to build strong skills in both languages while developing their curiosity, autonomy and ability to communicate in an international context.


Theatre: developing confidence and oral expression

Theatre is an integral part of our weekly program.

Through activities involving expression, interpretation and public speaking, students develop their self-confidence, communication skills and oral fluency.

The year culminates in a stage performance bringing together primary school students, middle school presenters, and the high school technical team. This inter-level collaboration offers students a valuable artistic experience in conditions closely resembling the professional world.


Guided Reading: accompanying each reader

The sessions of Guided Reading are organized into small, differentiated groups in order to meet the specific needs of each student.

The activities focus on:

  • Reading comprehension; ;
  • Fluidity; ;
  • Reading strategies; ;
  • Vocabulary development.

A structured progression is implemented throughout the year. A reading specialist supports teachers and students to monitor individual progress and offer targeted support when needed.

Our goal is to enable every child to become an independent, confident, and enthusiastic reader. 

We thank the entire Primary school teaching team for their daily work and enthusiasm.
