Fulham Bilingual- What is the non-French families experience is like?

[cerena]

Hi, neither myself nor my husband speak French and I was wondering if there are any families who does’t speak French send their children to Fulham Bilingual. I would love to hear their experience.

Their website says that half of the week is taught in French and letters from the French teacher are not translated.
I think that's pretty much your answer.

Yea, well there is such a thing as google translate ;) easy to use for translating the French information sent through. Many kids from non French speaking families do well there, but that is with effort. There are also kids who struggle. But mainly this happens when parents think it’s enough to just send them to the school with no extra outside support. They will need a French tutor or au pair or sitter to help with extra French exposure.

I have a friend whose DC attends there - many children there are tri-lingual, hers speak English, Polish & are catching up in French very fast. She feels a little out of her depth not being able to help with the French based homework. But as a primary school she is happy with it
