Our approach

We encourage the students to be confident and inquisitive. The teacher monitors the work of every child and encourages every effort and achievement. Every child is unique, and we organise learning in accordance with the abilities and individuality of every student. We watch out for their interests, the ways in which they perceive things, and their capacity for concentration. Thus the children in a class perform tasks with different levels of difficulty and we evaluate their progress in relation to their own individual level. When a student encounters difficulties coping with a given task, the teacher helps until the student masters it and then moves on to the next level. A student that copes easily with an assigned task will be given a new task with a higher degree of complexity. We do not tolerate parallel education with private lessons.

Everything we do is guided by concern for people and for the natural world. The Denis Diderot School is an ambassador of the protection of nature and the environment – without plastic litter and with full support for waste separation and recycling. We educate our students to be socially responsible and to be aware that every action or inaction on their part can damage or help the natural world – humans being part of that world.
