Upper School Premises now open

We are delighted to announce that our Upper School premises are now open! Since moving in, our Year 10 and Year 11s have had a wonderful time exploring the new building and are already putting the brand new learning spaces to good use.

Located on Russell Square, steps away from the British Museum and our Bedford Square site, these new premises will ultimately house students from Year 10 to Year 13. 

A very big thank you and congratulations to all those who made this possible!

Ecole Jeannine Manuel now an IB World School

We are proud to announce that we are now an authorised IB World School for the Diploma Programme. The IB programme is recognised for its academic rigour and emphasis on personal development.

Pupils entering Sixth Form will be offered a choice between the IB and the French baccalaureate (British Section OIB).

For Pauline Prévot, Head of School, “this new accreditation recognises the school’s commitment to providing an outstanding, world-class education for our students and paves the way for the school’s planned extension.
