Founded in 1956, the Lycée Français International de Zurich follows the French national curriculum from maternelle through to the Baccalauréat, including a trilingual international option. Conventioned with the AEFE network, it teaches in French with German and plurilingual pathways. The programme leads pupils to the French Baccalauréat at the end of the lycée.
The school gathers more than 1,150 pupils aged 3 to 18, giving it the scale and continuity of a full French education abroad within a Swiss-German setting. Wraparound care runs across a long school day.
Sports and creative workshops, libraries and on-site facilities support pupils alongside supervised homework help.
Families enrol directly through the school's admissions process.
