The educational project rests on four axes: multilingual education; excellence and student success; formation of 21st-century citizens; and a pedagogy of innovation. The campuses host Centre de Documentation et d'Information (CDI) libraries with E-Sidoc catalogs. After-school activities (APE) and student governance foster participation, diversity, and well-being. A humanist approach underpins the education, emphasizing cultural diversity and enrichment worldwide.

Curriculum
The Lyce9e Antoine de Saint-Exupe9ry of the Alliance Frane7aise de Santiago is an international, multilingual school with two campuses, Vitacura and Chamisero, enrolling more than 3,200 students from kindergarten to Terminale. It offers a French curriculum accredited by the French Ministry of Education and is part of the AEFE, which coordinates and funds staff through subsidies and scholarships.
