French School of Manila

Founded in 1973 in Metro Manila, the French School of Manila (LFM) - formerly French School of Manila - deploys for more than 40 years its know-how and expertise for the education and well-being of students in the small section at the Terminal.

Signed on 22 January 1963 by General de Gaulle and Chancellor Adenauer , the Elysée Treaty defined the organization and principles of cooperation between France and the Federal Republic of Germany in the fields of Foreign Affairs, Defense, Education and Youth.

The Eurocampus project was born in 1992 under the leadership of several French personalities in the Philippines: Olivier Gaussot, Ambassador of France, Alain Chancerelle, Louis-Paul Heussaff and Philippe Gauthier. They formed the group of founding members of this ambitious Franco-German project, the first in the world.

The French High School in Manila (LFM) and the German European School Manila (GESM) are two partner schools, united within the Eurocampus, and jointly using the buildings and services. The courses are independent, each school being attached to the respective supervisory authority for each of the two institutions, but each day cooperating on mutual agreements. Through events and joint projects, the high school, according to its official program, wants to realize and develop this "unique environment, international and multicultural, to the benefit of all."

The Eurocampus welcomes over 600 students and 120 employees in a green and airy environment in an intercultural environment of more than 40 nationalities.

In its vision statement, the Lycée describes its educational program: The French Lycée in Manila, paret of the AEFE (Agency for French Education Abroad) network, promotes academic excellence, critical thinking and autonomy for pupils of different linguistic backgrounds and geographies (29 nationalities).

As part of the dynamics of the Asia-Pacific zone of AEFE and Eurocampus, which it shares with the German European School of Manila, the French Lycée in Manila is carrying out a project with a strong international dimension. Cultural dialogue with the Philippines and access to plurilingualism for all students are two essential axes.
