Its vibrant community, supported by dedicated faculty and staff, ensures that students thrive both academically and socially, making it a respected institution within the international education landscape.
SPW Careers have a long working relationship with the British School of Paris and enjoy visiting the school twice a year when we support Yr. 11 (Grade 10) students and new 6th form (Yr. 12 / Grade 11) for 1-1 guidance interviews, using careers psychometric profiles in supporting the process. We also return to the school in supporting all students with further 1-1’s and attend the 6th form options open evening when we have the opportunity to talk with current and future students and parents. When not in school we have strong relationship with many of the school team and will often offer additional advice and support throughout the academic year, including providing lesson plans and an interest online questionnaire in supporting Yr. 9 (grade 8) students with their (i)GCSE option choices.
Our partnership with the school was recognised as best practice and in 2022 we received the Council of British International Schools (COBIS) supporting associate of the year award for our work in the school.
