Admissions Process

Admissions

N.B With regard to the “förskola” (pre-school structure), you access the waiting list through the registration portal of the city of Stockholm: https://forskola.stockholm/hitta-forskola/forskola/lycee-francais-saint-louis-forskola/

To do this, you must be registered in Sweden and have a Swedish electronic legitimation.

LYCÉE FRANÇAIS SAINT LOUIS, ITS MISSION:

The mission of the Lycée Français Saint Louis, which is part of the AEFE international network, is triple:

• to educate French children resident in Sweden,
• to educate children in Sweden whose families have chosen to follow the French school system,
• to educate school children with another citizenship, whose family has chosen the French school system

Our goal is to promote the French language and culture at school, as well as to enable students to discover our hosting country Sweden and its culture.
We follow the French Ministry of Education’s national curriculum and are thus entitled to offer the French degrees such as DNB – Diplôme National du Brevet – at the end of 3ème, the Baccalauréat and the Swedish OIB at the end of Terminale (last year in high school).

At the school, teaching is also given in Swedish: Swedish teaching at LFSL

Important:
All children who do not come from the French school system must undergo a level assessment, which determines the possibility of enrolment.

ADMISSION FEE

Together with the place offer you will receive:

• An invoice for registration fee of SEK 1500
• An economic regulation (see explanations below)
The enrolment comes into effect when the payment of the registration fee and the approval of the financial regulation have been submitted to LFSL.

The admission is based on our capacity (number of students) where the students who are already following the French school system and who are approved at the level stated on the certificate of termination (exeat) and with approved grades are prioritized.

APPLYING FOR A PLACE

To put your child in the queue for our preschool, please go to: https://forskola.stockholm/sok-plats-pa-forskolan/. In order to register your child for the queue, the child must have a Swedish personal identity number. The application is made digitally via Bank ID or in writing on a form.

The allocation of places is based on the capacity of the preschool and according to the following priority criteria:
1) Sibling priority (brothers and sisters already attending the preschool)
2) Registration date in the queue

N.B Families who are not registered in Sweden can call or email Kontaktcenter Förskola i Stockholms stad for more information. Phone: +46 (8) 508 11 550
E-mail: forskola@stockholm.se

The preschool fee is calculated according to the City of Stockholm’s “maxtaxa”, which is linked to the family’s income.

Important:

• A place at the preschool does not automatically guarantee a place for the child at the International school.
• As the preschool enrolment process is separate from the International school, this means that siblings may be offered a place at the International school, but not always at the preschool.
