International School of Marseille

The International School of Marseille (ISM) is a bilingual French-English private school located in the 7th arrondissement of Marseille, in the vibrant Endoume neighbourhood. ISM provides multi-disciplinary, individualised education for children aged 2 to 11 in an international environment, following a structured programme aligned with both French national educational standards and international learning outcomes. The school limits class groups to ensure personalised instruction, fostering close teacher-student relationships. ISM's mission is to prepare children for a genuinely international future — whether they will study in France, the United States, Japan, or elsewhere. Native-speaking teachers deliver instruction in both French and English, and the school actively involves families in a welcoming, multicultural community. ISM is particularly well regarded by expatriate families posted to Marseille.
