Why choose EFIC for your child?
The EFIC is approved by the French Ministry of Education. It is a guarantee of seriousness and quality.
The EFIC belongs to the largest global school network, that of the Agency for French Education Abroad (612 schools, 138 countries). No problem if you change the assignment!

EFIC finalist in the "Palmes de l'enseignement" awards!
The Agence pour l’Enseignement Français à l’Etranger (AEFE) is an international network of 580 French schools worldwide. For the first time this year, the AEFE has decided to award “Palmes de l’Enseignement” to schools that have demonstrated outstanding action in a number of educational and cultural fields. Seven themes were selected: inclusion, the fight against discrimination, innovative actions, cultural action, linguistic promotion and openness to the host country, guidance and commitment. EFIC competed in the Commitment category, showcasing the school community’s actions in the field of sustainable development through a dossier and video presentation. EFIC was selected by the national jury as one of the finalists for the Palme de l’Engagement. This is a great pride and honor for our small school, which is thus encouraged to continue its action in the field of sustainable development, for which it has already obtained level 1 of the EFE3D label (Etablissement français de l’étranger en démarche de développement durable).
Language learning is a priority in our school, which is bilingual in French and English from kindergarten onwards. Learning French is important, even for those who are already fluent in English. French is the second most widely taught language in the world and is the official or working language in several dozen countries. Learning French opens doors to new cultures and provides an additional advantage for future studies and careers.
