Approach · Alternative Pedagogies (Waldorf, Montessori)
As it has grown, Ellipse Montessori Academy has created an innovative, educational program combining several methods and curriculums. As a result, children from ages 2 to 11 benefit from Montessori pedagogy, an approach that aims to support the child’s natural development by creating an environment adapted to their needs and characteristics related to their age. Our international middle school (ages 12 to 15) is a unique model : It holds a balanced mix of the Montessori spirit, new pedagogies (Steiner, Freinet), the Cambridge Programme, and the acquisition of skills in the National Education’s core curriculum. IB World Schools share a common philosophy – a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education – that we believe is important for our students. It is also a member of the International Montessori association (AMF/AMI).

Our children aged 8 and 12 are delighted at Ellipse. They can of course cultivate their bilingualism, but above all they have found a framework in which they can flourish academically and socially. Finally a caring AND rigorous, interesting AND ambitious school for our children!

I put my son in Ellipse Montessori when I saw him wasting away in the classical system. In a few months, he revealed himself, regained his self-confidence, became more and more curious and happy to learn. He himself said thank you for this gift. The team is just wonderful and caring while gently stimulating the students towards excellence. THANKS.
