Ecole Du Parc - French & Bilingual Nursery School

L'Ecole du Parc was established in July 2002 by professional parents in Clapham and by an experienced team of Early Years teachers and nursery nurses. Due to ever stronger demand, the school has grown over the past 20 years. We are keen to remain a small nursery school in order to retain a nurturing and caring family atmosphere.

L'Ecole du Parc is regulated and regularly inspected by OFSTED (Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills). The school was awarded the grade “Outstanding” following our latest inspection in December 2017 in our French school and in February 2018 in our bilingual school. In addition, the Early Years’ Service at Wandsworth Borough Council regularly supports and advises our team.

We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum (which is very close to the French "maternelle" curriculum) and we also draw on other educational methods such as the Montessori method. We are keen to offer the best of the French and British education systems.

In our French classes, all our teachers are native French speakers. In our bilingual classes, all our teachers are native French or English speakers. Finally, we communicate with parents both in French and English.
