About LFIC
OUR MISSION
Making the best of the two worlds:
Meet the first truly Indo-French School in India catering to the needs of the international-minded communities.
Pluricultural
Offering a genuine English/French bilingual education, our French school ensures children learn both languages equally, with exposure to Indian languages and culture. Our goal is to cultivate trilingual citizens with robust pluricultural skills, by fostering an environment where students can experience and embrace multiculturalism firsthand at the rich cultural city - Chennai. The school also aims to welcome any foreigners in Chennai looking for an international education while providing for personalized language courses of their mother language.
Inclusive
Prioritizing student well-being and personalized education lies at the core of our teaching approach. With small multi-grade classes and a high teacher/pupil ratio, we ensure inclusivity for all children.
Accessible
Our school welcomes students from all backgrounds, emphasizing that a French education abroad is not exclusive to French nationals. In fact, 65% of pupils in the AEFE network are of non-French origin. Open to all nationalities, we keep tuition fees reasonable, prioritizing quality teaching in the classroom. Our school offers a unique educational program, ensuring smooth transfer of students worldwide without the necessity of admissions exams.
Valuable
Our students gain access to prestigious universities worldwide, including Harvard, Cambridge, Utrecht University, McGill, and Université Bocconi. Last year, over 1000 graduates pursued higher education studies in Canada, 430 in the UK, 332 in the United States, and 326 in Switzerland, with many also joining renowned French higher education institutions. The globally recognized French Baccalaureat adds distinction to students' profiles, setting them apart from other applicants.
