Mrs. Marie Paule Epee

HELLO, Welcome to Petite Academy International School website. If this is your first time on our website please browse through the various pages to see for yourself what our school has to offer. Admission is open through out the year and catch-up lessons are organized to help late entries meet up with the school programme for each academic year.

Our doors are open to welcome national and international students and their families from all religious and cultural backgrounds.

Lessons are drafted and taught through the Competence Based Approach which permits students to use their critical thinking in and out of classroom situations.

We operate from Preschool through Primary. At PAIS we have a very unique programme which is a blend of the Cameroon, American and French curricula. With small classroom settings of not more than 20 students per class, teachers have the opportunity to access the individual difficulties of students and provide immediate solutions. Blessed with quality educational materials which are Montessori oriented, adapted to each class with the aim of relating lessons to real life situations, we distinguish ourself from the crowd with our Jolly English Learning programme which enables our students to grab their first international Certificate from Jolly Phonics-UK /US.

Sanitation is topnotch at PAIS with ventilated classrooms, clean toilets, beautiful green play ground with outdoor taps making PAIS a learning environment void of germs. A well-equipped library with a variety of books cutting across different themes accompanied with a modern information and communication technology lab to meet up with the new trends of modernization and digitalization in education is another added value in our quest for excellence. It is only at PAIS that Preschoolers are awarded an international English certification; the ‘Jolly Phonics Certificate’ as they move from Preschool to Primary. At the end of the Primary Cycle students seat for both National and International Examinations: the GCE and FSLC for the national exams, TOEFL Primary and DELF for international Certification.

With our young, dynamic, dedicated and well-trained staff, a blend of different nationalities and cultures with at least five years teaching experience, we are always ready to welcome our students throughout the Academic year. Please browse around and feel free to contact us at any time.

OUR CURRICULUM

PAIS has a very unique curriculum. Our main curriculum which is the Cameroon Basic Education curriculum has been merged with the French and American curricula. This blended curriculum ushers our students into a broad and competitive educational environment where they become problem solvers by using their critical thinking in and out of the classroom.

Our curriculum permits our students to sit for two National and two International Examinations; that is the GCE and FSLC for national examinations, the TOEFL primary and DELF primary for international certification.

We also have a special phonics and grammar programme called JOLLY LEARNING which starts from kindergarten through 5th grade. Jolly learning involves jolly phonics and Jolly grammar which is a programme that teaches reading and writing through letter sounds. The jolly learning methodology is a multisensory method which uses actions, songs, body senses and colour codes to introduce letter sounds, blending and reading. Through this methodology students are able to blend and read three letter words at an early stage of the learning process.
