Introduction

LFK is a private, multicultural French school in Kuwait, homologated by the French Ministry of Education and AEFE-partner. The curriculum follows the French national program with a bilingual dimension culminating in the Baccalauréat Français International (BFI). From maternelle to Terminale, language learning is integrated, with PARLE and EMILE supporting early language development; PARLE continues in collège, and lycée students may pursue the BFI and, from 2025, the English-language European Section. The school also offers language certifications—IELTS, DELE, DELF, and CIMA—to formalize proficiency. A trilingual pathway, the Section Internationale Américaine (SIA), leads to the BFI American track, with some English-language instruction in 2nde. The Section Européenne anglaise is planned to begin in fall 2025. Official pathways include Parcours Avenir, Parcours d'éducation artistique et culturelle, Parcours éducatif de santé, and Parcours citoyen. The campus serves maternelle through terminale and supports extensive after-school activities and eco-responsibility initiatives. The school welcomes families worldwide today.
