THE AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL SECTION STARTS IN CP (grade 1)

Elementary, middle and high school students have the opportunity to engage in the exciting and challenging language path provided by the American International Section (SIA).

In elementary school, part of the curriculum is taught in English and stronger focus is put on learning the language.

In secondary school, the History-Geography curriculum is partly taught in English, and students benefit from additional classes on American language, literature, and culture.

LFS is the only school in South Korea to offer this bilingual French-English program.

WE WELCOME STUDENTS FROM NON-FRENCH SPEAKING BACKGROUNDS

In Kindergarten (PS to GS), students join the regular class directly according to their age (calendar year) and learn French with their teacher, and with the help of the assistant teacher who speaks both French and Korean.

In elementary school (CP to CM2), LFS has a Bridge Class dedicated to students who speak little or no French. The students alternate between Bridge Class and the regular class during their normal school day so that they can quickly adjust to the school program.

In secondary school (from 6ème to Terminale), students must have at least a B1 level to enter LFS. Support in French class is then offered to reinforce learning and mastery of French.
