It offers a bespoke curriculum and a pathway to French diplomas: nursery (maternelle) 2-5, elementary (elementaire) 6-10, middle (college) 11-14 with the Brevet, and high school (lycee) 15-17 with the Baccalaureat.

Families must notify the school accountant of the chosen payment option. Invoices are payable within three days of receipt of the corresponding documents.
- Consequences of non-payment: a single reminder is sent; if payment remains outstanding at the end of the term/trimester the pupil may be removed from the register and legal recovery procedures may be initiated. The school can agree extended payment deadlines only after a written request and interview with the accounting service.
- Discounts for siblings: 2nd, 3rd and 4th children from the same family receive a 15% reduction each; the first-registration fee remains unchanged.

Admissions

Admissions
Step 1: Complete the pre-registration request for your child. If registering several children, the request must be completed for each child separately. You will receive confirmation of your request from the Lycée and a list of documents to provide within 48 working hours. Step 3: If your child has studied in an establishment that does not provide the French education system programs and your enrollment concerns CP/Grade 1 and any level above, you will be offered a date for a diagnostic test in mathematics and an interview with the teaching team. After the test, the school will inform you if the registration can continue. For Nursery school registrations, an appointment will be arranged with the teacher concerned. Step 4: You will complete your child's registration confirmation. The contract to be signed, the invoice, the internal regulations and the financial regulations will be communicated in the following week. Re-enrollment procedure: For our current students who will continue their education in 2026-2027 school year, it is mandatory to submit a re-enrollment request. In addition, the full tuition fees for the 2025-2026 school year must be paid. No student will appear on the school's lists if this procedure has not been followed. If there is a particular problem, contact the administration without delay.
