Your questions, our straight answers.

They are open. The application is made online; the school then checks the documents, sets an entrance assessment (from Reception up) and a family interview. A full level still takes applications, onto the waiting list.

A birth certificate extract, two photos, report cards for this year and last, a certificate of schooling or of leaving, the vaccination record and the parent’s identity document.

From Reception up, yes: an hour of maths and languages at their level, to know how to welcome them — not to rank them. In Nursery, a simple play session with a teacher is enough.

The application is accepted onto the waiting list, and its position shows in the online tracker. A seat that frees up is offered in list order, with priority for siblings of current pupils.

In three instalments (40% in September, 30% in January, 30% in April), by CIB or Edahabia card in the parents’ space, by transfer or at the cash desk. Paid in one go before term starts, tuition takes 3% off. The amounts are on the fees page.

Yes, on tuition only: 10% for the second child and 15% from the third, counted from the eldest. The cantine, transport and activities are not discounted.

National-programme lessons and the enrichments (languages, coding, arts, sport), digital textbooks and access to the platform’s four spaces. The cantine, transport, after-school care and paid clubs are options, each priced on the fees page.

Two, granted by the direction: 30% for staff children and a 20% merit bursary. They apply to tuition only and do not stack with the sibling discount: the larger applies.

Yes: every teacher opens meeting slots, at school or by video, bookable in the parents’ space. Two parent-teacher evenings are held after each term.

Yes, in full: the Ministry of National Education’s, with its hours, coefficients and exams — end of primary, BEM and Bac. Nakhla adds hours of languages, hands-on science, coding and the arts, never instead of the programme.

At most 18 in pre-school, with two adults, and at most 24 from primary to lycée. In L2 and L3 the streams often have far fewer.

With mock exams marked like the real ones, small-group revision sessions and tracking of averages that alerts the form tutor before the class council. BEM preparation starts in 3AM, Bac preparation from L2.

The national curriculum, taught in Arabic, with French and English from the first year of primary, and Tamazight. The lycée’s Foreign languages stream adds Spanish.

No. National-programme lessons are in Arabic, and French is reinforced step by step. A pupil who joins mid-way follows, if needed, two catch-up hours a week for a term.

Tamazight is taught from primary to middle school, as the national programme provides. Spanish is the third language of the Foreign languages stream at lycée, and is taught only in that stream.

Three routes: the Heights (Hydra, El Biar, Ben Aknoun), the East (Kouba, Bir Mourad Raïs, Dely Brahim) and the West (Saïd Hamdine, Chéraga, Ouled Fayet). An escort is on board and the journey is followed live in the parents’ space.

Yes, in the parents’ space: where the minibus is, the expected time at your stop, and a notification when your child gets on and when they reach school.

The child does not get off. The escort informs the family, and the child comes back to school and is looked after until an authorised adult arrives.

Meals are cooked on site, Sunday to Thursday, and the week’s menu is published in the parents’ space with its allergens. Allergies declared in the pupil’s file are flagged to the kitchen.

Yes: after-school care takes pre-school and primary pupils until 6 pm, with a snack and homework help. Clubs also meet in the late afternoon.

Yes. An allergy declared in the pupil’s file appears on the service list, and the kitchen prepares a suitable tray. The week’s menus are posted on Thursdays in the parents’ space.

The adults you have authorised in your space, and nobody else. A new adult must be added by a parent before they come; their identity document is checked at the gate.

The nurse looks after the child and the family is told the same day in the parents’ space. In an emergency, the protocol posted on every floor applies and a parent is called at once.

Only with your permission, given or withdrawn at any time in the parents’ space. Without it, your child appears in no photo the school publishes.

In the parents’ space, under Absences: you are told the same day by SMS and attach the justification in one click. After three unexcused absences, the education adviser gets in touch.

Marks as they come, report cards, absences and their notes, messages with teachers, appointments, payments and receipts, the cantine, the bus and trip permissions to sign.

No. It asks questions and gives hints so the pupil finds the answer themselves. Its conversations are visible to the school, and it only discusses programme subjects.

No. The platform works in the browser on a phone or a computer, in Arabic, French and English. It can be added to the home screen like an app.
