"Established in 2011, Collège Français Bilingue de Londres welcomes 700 pupils from Nursery to Year 10 in a magnificent Victorian building in Kentish Town, at the heart of London.
Our school is a real incubator for our pupils. The warm and friendly environment helps them to gain confidence and our committed teachers encourage them to excel in every domain. Throughout their schooling, they master the French curriculum in both languages, become caring and responsible citizens, and open up to the world through trips, exchanged and a community of over 60 nationalities."
David Gassian, Headteacher
CFBL’s mission is to provide students with the best of French and British educational cultures, while preparing them for life in the modern world.
We strive to create a relationship of trust with parents, who see their children flourish at CFBL.
As an English speaker whose French is limited to ordering meals and buying train tickets I was cautious about joining CFBL, but motivated to support my son's French. I - and he - could not be happier here: his French is excellent and he is supported by a truly bilingual, approachable team who ensure that I never feel out of the loop.
Striking a fine balance between the high expectations of a French education and a more rounded approach, this small school in the heart of Kentish Town is cherished by families for its vibrant cultural and super bilingual environment. Bravo!
CFBL has enabled my two daughters to achieve their full potential in secondary; between kindness and firmness, this school has found the right balance to give our children confidence in the future and a thirst for learning.
We are leaving our “home of learning” with a heavy heart, but we are happy that CFBL turned out to be everything we’d hoped for, with all the qualities necessary to our children’s progress and well-being.
And above all, our children are happy to go there every morning.
Our team guides and supports students every step of the way.
CFBL is now closed for the Summer holidays until Thursday 4 September.
Our Admissions team will be available all summer for any queries or late registration for September 2025. Please contact them on Admissions@cfbl.org.uk.
For 2026/2027 school year, registrations will open on Friday 10 October at 10 am.
