French education keeps up with globalization
MANILA, Philippines – More and more parents are concerned with the quality of education that is available to their children. They are looking for an efficient education system and proven professional teaching competencies to have their children brought up to the changing and challenging world.
Ecole Française Internationale de Manille (EFM) or the French International School Manila offers a strong academic French-English program based on students’ needs, and aims to develop the students’ ability to express themselves in both languages with ease.
Aside from having a recognized French system worldwide, teachers are sent to other French schools abroad to be at par with the latest teaching methods applicable to an Asian setting.
“We manage professionally competent teachers who are able to prepare and coach the children to face the future with success. To ensure this, we are running a modern and efficient system of education,” says French International School Manila headmaster Annie Guillotin.
The curriculum is approved by the French National Ministry of Education and recognized by the Department of Education. The school is also affiliated with the Agence pour l’Enseignement Français à l’Etranger (AEFE), the world’s biggest network of educational institutions with more than 400 schools in 224 countries.
This allows students to move in different locations and pursue studies under the same world-class educational system, proving it ideal for children of expatriates.
The school offers modern education and sports facilities, and a clean and green multi-cultural environment, allowing the students to engage in various activities.
To integrate with the European educational system, German, Spanish and Mandarin languages are taken by students in the higher years. EFM is open to students from preschool to grade 12.
In high school, students who pass the French Baccalaureate exam will have a wide access to any university abroad.
