Schools for the kids - French / English

Post new topic

marsprincess

I am considering moving to Malta for a job opportunity, but 1st want to look into the education system. I have a 17 year old and a 13 year old who have been educated in the Swiss French school system to date. They are bilingual (French / English) and speak German as well.

I would like to keep the 13 year old in a French school system if at all possible, but after doing some research do not find any private French schools. The 17 year old could do the International Baccalaureate.

If anyone has recommendations they are much welcomed!

Hello Marsprincess,
is there any French school in Malta ?
French schools abroad, although they follow the French Education curriculum, are private and you have to pay fees. So if there's one in Malta, it's more likely to be considered private. :-)

Hi Jo Ann,

thank you for your reply.

I fully expect the schools to be private - I just could not find any when doing a search on the Internet. I did find several private schools, but they were all taught in English. As both children speak English fluently this would most likely be ok, but my younger child has only studied in French and German and I would prefer to have her finish her primary school in French.

If anyone knows of a private French school thank you to post the name.

Kind regards,
Dejah

Bonjour, je suis à la recherche des mêmes informations mais mes enfants ont 8 et 11 ans et ne maîtrisent pas correctement la langue anglaise. Nous devons rester pour 3 mois l'année prochaine et j'aurai une disponibilité. Auriez-vous des informations concernant les écoles? Sinon je pensais les scolariser normalement et utiliser les cours du CNED en complément. Bref si vous avez des informations merci de votre aide, je continue de chercher.:)
