Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle de Londres

Founded in 1915, the Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle is one of the most prominent international schools in London. Managed by the Agency for French Education Abroad (AEFE), it serves the large French expatriate community as well as international families seeking a French-style education. The main campus is located in a historic building in South Kensington, opposite the Natural History Museum.

The school offers two main academic paths: the French Section, which follows the national French curriculum leading to the Diplôme National du Brevet and the Baccalauréat, and the British Section, which prepares students for GCSEs and A-Levels. This dual-track system allows for a unique bilingual and bicultural environment. The school is renowned for its academic excellence, particularly in mathematics, sciences, and languages.

With a student population of over 3,400 across four sites (South Kensington, Ealing, Fulham, and Wix), it is a massive institution that maintains a strong sense of community. The Lycée is notable for its competitive admissions and its role as a cultural bridge between France and the UK, hosting numerous cultural and educational events throughout the year.
