Bilingual Secondary schools in Paris

We are moving to Paris in December with kids aged 7 and 10. My 10 year old is the problem becuase in the French system she needs to move to college in September next year which means she only has 2 terms in primary school left. I am desperately trying to find a school which has both primary and secondary sections so that she can continue at the same school she starts at in December. Obviously the International School of Paris would be a great choice but the price is a bit prohibitive. We were thinking of the EAB Monseau and then going on to the EAB college but I can't find any reviews of the college. Does anyone know anything about it? Also, does anyone have an opnion on whether after 2 terms of French primary a child would be able to cope with French secondary school? Everyone swears that kids are fluent in a few months but does that really apply to older children who are tackling more complex subjects? Any advice or ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Well it's getting better - there's a specialist class for autistic kids at my son's state school, for instance. Henstooth I'd really recommend you joing the FB group English-speaking mums in Paris, there's a subgroup for children with SEN.

Thanks, will do a search on FB - hadn’t seen the subgroup.

I don't think the subgroup is visible. It's called SPAN, if you do a keyword search for developmental delay you should find it.

Hello, hoping to restart this old thread. Moving from London to Paris over the summer. We are looking at schools in the west suburbs and are considering Ermitage in maisons lafitte. However it seems it has had bad reviews in the past. Not sure what the problem is/was. Does anyone have recent experience? What about EIB la jonchère? Or malherbe?
Thanks
