For 140 years, the Lycée Français de Madrid (LFM) has been a center of academic excellence, welcoming more than 4,300 students from preschool to high school across its two campuses in Conde de Orgaz and La Moraleja.
It is part of the global network of the Agency for French Education Abroad (AEFE), which guarantees high-quality educational continuity worldwide.
Combining high academic standards, personalised support, and cultural openness, the LFM offers a comprehensive education that provides students with the tools they need to succeed in their future endeavours, whether in France, Spain, or anywhere else in the world.
A multicultural and multilingual environment
At the LFM, students grow and learn in a bicultural environment immersed both in French and Spanish cultures, and they rub shoulders with students from more than 70 countries, fostering a real international diversity. This multicultural environment is a daily asset which the school is banking on, offering several courses with a strong emphasis on foreign languages: the European Section, the International Section, and the trilingual or quadrilingual BFI (French International Baccalaureate), in French, Spanish, and English, with the extra option of German or Italian.
