PRIMARY SECTION SENEGALESE PROGRAM

Our program follows the standard Senegalese curriculum, enhanced with a set of English subjects to emphasize our bilingual approach. This English component is integrated up to CE2, after which the focus shifts towards preparing for national exams.

In the primary section, we offer classes from CI to CM, culminating in the Concours d'Entrée en Classe de Sixième, the common entrance exam for middle school, and the Certificat de Fin d'Études Élémentaires (CFEE), the national final exam.
