Christoph Marti's Company Details
ELA Basel is Basel's foremost international primary school, offering the UK's forward-looking Early Years Foundation Stage and National Curriculum for children aged 3 months to 12 years.Located in two convenient city-centre locations, the school is a family oriented and international community of over 300 children from 27 different nationalities. ELA Basel offers ‘wrap-around' care from 7.30 am to 6 pm daily and is open 50 weeks of the year. An ELA Basel education includes a well-rounded programme of sports, music, clubs, swimming and the performing arts. A varied range of trips and visits promotes learning ‘beyond the classroom' in Basel, a city rich in culture and history.The curriculum includes a strong German language element that allows our children to attend local secondary schools under the Secondary School Transition Agreement with the City. At the same time, the children score well above average in internationally benchmarked tests in English, Maths and French. Whilst English is the main language of instruction, a third of all children speak German at home, reflecting ELA Basel's deep local links within its Swiss setting. With the average length of stay of graduating children over 8 years, families choose ELA Basel for the high levels of care and attention we offer in small class sizes.ELA Basel has a talented and committed team of staff that make the happiness, safety and personal development of each child their priority. Working alongside dedicated parent reps and volunteers, all staff strive to build a caring community where learning is personalized and everyone is valued and nurtured.
