Infants
In the infant stage, pupils have their first contact with English through games, songs and interactive activities. They learn basic vocabulary related to colours, numbers and everyday objects, as well as simple grammatical structures. Early immersion fosters natural pronunciation and the ability to understand and follow simple instructions in English.
Primary
During primary school, reading, writing, and speaking in English are deepened. Students expand their vocabulary and improve their reading comprehension through adapted stories and texts. More complex grammatical concepts are introduced, and oral communication is promoted through presentations and simple dialogues.
Secondary
In Secondary, the focus is on consolidating grammar, enriching vocabulary and developing analytical skills through literature. Students hone their writing and argumentation skills, conduct literary analysis, and participate in debates to improve their fluency and confidence in speaking.
Baccalaureate
In the Baccalaureate, students reach an advanced level of proficiency in English. They focus on literary criticism, academic essays and preparation for official exams.
