WHO IS THE MODERN SCHOOL FOR?

The Modern School, based on Freinet and Institutional pedagogy, is a school for all students aged 3 to 12, where learning is meaningful and intellectual, social, and cultural development is encouraged.

THE MODERN SCHOOL: WHY?

To offer every child the opportunity to learn through a stimulating education in a safe environment!

The Modern School seeks to develop teaching practices rooted in social reality, working towards the true emancipation of children.

It advocates for a school where every child can learn at their own pace, build their knowledge with their peers and adults, express themselves and develop their critical thinking skills, become independent, and thus take on real responsibility in a lively classroom that is open to the world.
