About this school
La Petite Ecole Bangkok is a bilingual French-English preschool in the Sathorn area of central Bangkok. It opened in September 2017 with 12 pupils and now has around 80. It belongs to the La Petite Ecole group, which began in Singapore in 2012, and since February 2021 has been part of Odyssey, a Paris-based network of French schools abroad. The school was approved by the French Ministry of Education in 2019 and is a partner school of the AEFE.
Children are taught from age 2 to 6 across the four years of French maternelle (Cycle 1): TPS nursery from age 2, then PS, MS and GS kindergarten. In the bilingual track the French national curriculum is delivered in French and English by two native-speaker teachers per class; a newer English Track follows the British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). Tuition is the same for both tracks.
The community includes more than 20 nationalities. The school emphasises environmental education, with sorting, composting, a vegetable garden, botanical areas and a carpentry workshop. It also runs extra-curricular activities, holiday camps, a daycare service, a canteen and school bus.
