What our families say
"What we really appreciate about ELA is the warmth professionalism and engagement that we feel from the teachers at every level."
"The caregivers are something else. I know it's a cliché to say we're a family but it really is a family here."
"The teachers, it's the way they teach the children, it's not just like they're doing it for what they'll get at the end of the month. They do it from the heart and that is what makes ELA feel like home."
"ELA Basel is like a 'home away from home' for my two children in Early Years. It makes all the difference to our family knowing how much care and attention each child receives in a safe, secure and nurturing setting"
Early Years Family
"My children truly loved their time at ELA Basel which is a truly caring school. We are very grateful that we found your school and our children had the opportunity to learn at ELA Basel."
Year 5 Family
"We've had nothing but a pleasureable experience during our time at ELA Basel. It's a wonderful school with excellent leadership. Not to mention the teachers were of the highest quality with small class sizes. ELA Basel is a special place that is doing wonderful things. Keep it up!"
