Welcome to CFBL

"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."

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.

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.
