My daughter arrived in TPS without speaking French. With the three teachers in the class, she progressed in French, English and Romanian in a few months. The Passerelle programme really made a difference.
We moved to Bucharest in 2024 and chose EFI for the genuine trilingual immersion. Our son now reads in French, speaks English daily and is starting to learn Romanian. The villa setting is charming and the team is amazing.
Our project is French excellence in a human-sized school, trilingual from the earliest age group, with the progressive opening of the secondary school. A true world school in the centre of Bucharest.
