Collège Français Bilingue de Londres

Opened in 2011, the Collège Français Bilingue de Londres welcomes 700 students aged 3 to 15, from the first year of nursery school to Year 9.

With a community of more than 60 different nationalities , the CFBL places tolerance and openness to others at the heart of its educational project.

Located in the heart of the British capital in the Camden district , the Collège Français Bilingue de Londres gives its students access to excellent teaching through enhanced language learning and the dissemination of digital culture.

In a warm environment, our students discover the joy of learning in a spirit of respect and trust based on listening and ongoing dialogue with the teaching and educational teams.

Encouraged to exchange, create and take initiatives in a multicultural environment , our students acquire, in addition to academic knowledge, human and relational qualities which will guide them throughout their years of study and even beyond.

At the end of their studies, students continue their education in a French high school in London (mainly the Lycée International Winston Churchill but also the Lycée Charles de Gaulle) or another establishment in France or abroad, while some move on to the English education system.
