Learner-centric, creative and engaging collaborative activities are the key to our digital learning approach. Our students use the latest tools to absorb, produce and share new content, while inventing new forms of academic and creative expression.

Teachers use digital tools to enhance the learning experience and provide new forms of support for the children. More broadly, teachers are also here to guide students on the path to digital literacy and make sure they become responsible digital citizens.

From digital art classes to coding lessons, technology shines at IIL. That is the reason why Apple awarded our school with an “Apple Distinguished School” certification.

Given our integrated digital learning approach, IIL was prepared to face the COVID-19 pandemic and effectively extend learning into the homes of our students. Using a variety of digital resources and intensive staff training by our IT and ICT teams, each IIL section was able to provide distance learning to students of all ages.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Language approach<\/div>\n

At IIL, we are committed to promoting a plurilingual and international learning environment. Joining IIL is a chance for students to connect with a diverse, global community and to encounter a rich array of cultures and languages. From Maternelle to the end of Secondary school, students follow an innovative linguistic pedagogy based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, allowing them to achieve a high level of proficiency in several languages.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
