Ellipse International Academy is a committed and innovative school

Founded in 2017 by committed parents, Ellipse International Academy is the first school in France to offer a continuous educational pathway from Montessori to the International Baccalaureate (IB).

Both approaches share the same ambition: to develop independent, curious and responsible young people who can think for themselves and make a difference in the world. They place the student at the heart of learning and favour inquiry, experimentation, cooperation and intercultural understanding.

In the heart of Paris, our bilingual French-English school helps every student develop their full potential. From the independence nurtured through Montessori to the critical thinking deepened in the IB, this coherent pathway fosters a love of learning, self-confidence and engagement.
