The School also uses local athletic stadiums, indoor gymnasiums, basketball courts, swimming pools, and a theater to enhance its P.E. and Arts programs.
School Resources
All areas of the School are equipped with intranet and internet access via dedicated computer labs, mobile laptop trolleys, library facilities and individual computers in classrooms. The libraries are well-stocked with books reflecting the international nature of the School. In addition, a wide range of CD-ROMs, DVDs and video-cassettes can be borrowed. The School Libraries' pages can be found in the Life at ISP section of this website.
We make extensive use of Paris as a resource, with its myriad of museums and art galleries. Classes have day trips to various locations around and outside Paris to complement the classroom teaching. Beginning in Grade 4, each grade undertakes a longer trip either in France or elsewhere in Europe based on a suitable area of the curriculum.
