A SEPARATE ENTRANCE FOR KINDERGARTEN CLASSES AND INDEPENDENT ACCESS FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

The Lycée Français de Séoul  (LFS) has a campus with two main entrances / exits:

THE ASAN ENTRANCE LOCATED AT 89, SAPYEONG-DAERO 22-GIL, for Kindergarten students: parents drop students off at their classroom between 8:20 and 8:30 am and pick them up at their classroom between 3:05 and 3:15 pm. If dropped off with Kindergarten students, older elementary school students may also join their class – on their own – via this entrance

THE MAIN ENTRANCE LOCATED AT 7, SEORAE-RO for elementary, middle and high school students, as well as for visitors. Elementary and secondary school students enter the facility unaccompanied to attend classes. Elementary school hours are 8.30 am – 3.15 pm with student reception starting at 8.20 am, while secondary school hours depend on the class schedule..

Elementary and middle school students are not allowed to leave the school outside of school hours, except in the case of a request from the parents in writing to the School Life (Vie Scolaire) office and to the teacher. High school students are free to enter and leave the school subject to parental permission given at the start of the school year.

LATE ARRIVALS AND ABSENCE

If their child is due to miss school, parents should notify the school first by phone (02-535-1158) or by email (viescolaire@lfseoul.org), then on Pronote (Link) in the “Absences, Punishments” section.
In the event of late arrival, the student must report to the School Life (Vie Scolaire) Office and he or she will be guided to the  classroom by an Education assistant. In case of absence due to illness, please also notify the nurse and specify symptoms at infirmerie@lfseoul.org.

Punctuality and attendance are an essential part of French education. Late arrivals and absences are therefore recorded in the student’s file throughout their education from Petite Section to Terminale. In the case of repeated late arrivals or absences, the Dean of Students (CPE) or the Primary School Director may request an appointment with the parents.

APPROPRIATE COMMUNICATION TOOLS

The LFS endeavors to provide optimal and relevant communication for each situation and message. Several tools with different purposes are available:

Pronote portal

serves as a schooling management tool for parents of children from Petite Section (Pre-K) to Terminale (grade 12).. Useful information include timetables, names and contact details of teachers and staff, assessments throughout the year, guidance feedback sheets, school reports, school lunch menus, assigned homework, information on school and class events, as well as, an absence and late arrival notification tool and an online chat with class representatives.

The LFS website

provides general information about the school, its educational approach and current events.

Eduka portal

allows parents to register / deregister students and hosts family contact details and data, extra-curricular activities and services booked, invoices and payments status, as well as a messaging tool to contact the school’s administrative services. Also available on Eduka is general school documents such as internal rules, minutes of board meetings, BCD / CDI charters, etc.

Instagram and Facebook

pages highlight daily students’ projects and school news.

Your child’s teacher or homeroom teacher is best able to answer any questions you may have regarding your child’s education. Their emails are to be found in your Pronote account under your child’s profile.
