L'Ecole des Petits - Fulham

[Lily7050]

Just wondering if any non-French speakers have sent their children to L'Ecole in Fulham. Neither myself nor my partner speaks French. But I know children pick up languages very quickly so think it would be an advantage for my DS to learn French in a bilingual school.
The destinations listed in the school brochure seem to be quite good: no St Pauls schools but Westminster and King's Wimbledon are included.
My aunty went to primary school without speaking the language but then became one of the top pupils in the class. So I think it depends on the child but in general children pick up languages very well.

Children do indeed pick it up well, but it sounds pretty traumatic for a child to be sent to a school where they don't speak the language, it'll take months to settle.

It depends what age you are planning on starting? I did primary school in a foreign language that my parents didn't speak, and it was challenging but I did reasonably well. Remember that homework will be a challenge: my mother learnt the language in order to help me.

Thank you hibbledibble. I understood L'ecole in Fulham goes up to age of 6 and I would like to have a school that goes till 11 at least.
