Located in Hamburg’s Lokstedt district, École Française de Hambourg (EFHH) serves students from age three through eighteen. The school follows the French National Education curriculum, leading to the Diplôme National du Brevet and the French Baccalaureate. A defining feature of the primary years is the Parity Bilingual Stream, where students receive equal instruction hours in French and German. The campus at Hartsprung features specialized science laboratories, a dedicated multimedia library (BCD/CDI), and indoor sports facilities. A unique initiative at EFHH is the "Sextant" program, which provides individualized guidance for students planning higher education pathways in France, Germany, or other international destinations.

Facilities include a daily canteen service providing hot meals and a private bus network for student transportation across the city.
The Lycée Franco-Allemand Hamburg (LFA Hamburg) is a Franco-German high school co-financed by France and Germany and part of the AEFE network. It serves pupils aged 10 to 18 and offers a bilingual curriculum that blends French and German educational traditions.

From 4th grade, more subjects are taught jointly in both languages, and from 2nde German and French students study in mixed classes with about half the courses in each language. The school supports bilingual learning across subjects and collaboration across languages; the Franco-German Baccalaureate enables entry to higher education in both countries, and Erasmus+ exchanges are conducted with partner schools. The campus opened at Hartsprung in 2020, with a planned Altona campus near the Elbe in late 2025.
