L´Ecole des Petits (Fulham, London)
Founded in 1977 by Mirella Otten, a newly trained teacher from Paris, she envisioned a bi-lingual pre-school that integrated the French and English curricula and cultures.
The school strongly believes that providing a bilingual education from the earliest age brings significant benefits to a child’s development, and by blending the French and English systems together, taking the best from both, provides a unique curriculum, where pupils progress with adaptive and open-minded capacities.
The school provides a safe and inclusive environment where children and adults alike are valued and supported, and where the team strives to ensure that every child loves to come to school and to learn, and feels welcomed, accepted and celebrated for who they are.
After completing their cycle, many pupils leave to move onto our nearby sister primary school, L’Ecole de Battersea.
As an AEFE (Agency for French Education Abroad) accredited school, and a DfE (Department for Education) registered school, L'Ecole des Petits is inspected by both the AEFE and OFSTED. The school maintains a consistent and high educational and pastoral standard and was the first independent “ecole maternelle” in England to achieve recognition for alignment with the French educational standards globally as an “Ecole Partenaire” in 1997, and retains this today.
