The Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle is a wonderful and mighty establishment, of truly international character, its roots firmly in the heart of South Kensington. Through the passage of time since its inception in 1915, the school has evolved: more than forty nationalities are now represented within our community.
One thing has not changed though throughout this time: our capacity to develop our educational practices whilst never losing sight of our tradition of excellence. Whichever section it may be, British, International, Bilingual, Multilingual or French – this balance of tradition with modernity provides our students with a unique experience in an exceptional environment.
The school makes a simple and honest commitment: to offer each child the best conditions in which to realise their academic potential, to be able to develop and thrive in a peaceful environment and achieve the level of excellence required to access their desired course even at the most competitive universities. We nurture each individual with care and help them build self-confidence – this remains our pledge to our families as much today as it has been for over a century.
