Lycée Français Saint Louis de Stockholm

The school is a foundation-led institution that promotes the values of liberty, equality, fraternity, secularism, and inclusion. Its educational project aims to form plurilingual, critical-thinking global citizens by combining the French national curriculum with an appreciation for Swedish culture and society. The school emphasizes both academic excellence and the personal development of its students within a supportive, international environment.

The school offers a comprehensive French curriculum, including pre-school (förskola), elementary school (CP to CM2), and secondary education (collège and lycée). Students prepare for French national exams such as the DNB and the Baccalauréat, with options for the Swedish OIB and the trilingual French-Swedish-English International Baccalaureate. Teaching is conducted primarily in French, with integrated Swedish language and culture studies.

The school consistently achieves high academic results, with 100% success rates in the Diplôme National du Brevet (DNB) and the Baccalauréat, including a high proportion of honors (mentions). Students also earn the Swedish Gymnasieexamen and various linguistic certifications. These outcomes reflect the school's focus on building solid knowledge and critical thinking skills, preparing students for higher education.

The school provides dedicated support for students with special educational needs, coordinated by a special pedagogue. During periods of distance learning or for students facing academic difficulties, the school implements support groups and personalized accompaniment to help with work organization, motivation, and planning. The health team, including school nurses and counselors, remains available to provide psychological and educational support.

The school follows a selective admissions process managed via the Eduka platform, with priority given to students already within the French school system, children of French families living in Sweden for a limited time, and siblings of currently enrolled students. All applicants who have not previously attended a school within the French system must undergo a level assessment. For the pre-school (förskola), families must register through the City of Stockholm’s portal, which requires a Swedish personal identity number.

The school operates on a standard academic year, typically beginning in late August and concluding in June. The calendar includes scheduled breaks, such as winter and spring holidays, and is managed in accordance with the school's educational requirements and local health guidelines. Specific dates for terms and holidays are communicated to families through the school's official channels.

The campus is located at Essingestråket 24 in Stockholm and includes classrooms, administrative offices, and a school dining facility. The school also maintains a library (CDI) with access to digital resources like E-sidoc. Sports and other activities are supported by the school's infrastructure and, where necessary, external facilities in the Stockholm area.

The school offers a range of extra-curricular activities, including music programmes such as end-of-year concerts and collective singing projects that form part of the Arts and Cultural Education Pathway (PEAC). Students also participate in various pedagogical projects and trips. Additionally, the school provides a "Périscolaire-Fritids" leisure centre for students, which operates under the City of Stockholm’s fee structure.
