École Greenfield is a private Franco-English bilingual nursery and elementary school in Lyon, located in Collonges-au-Mont-d'Or, about ten minutes from Place Bellecour. It welcomes children from age 2 to 11 and offers enrollment for 2026/27. The school provides daily instruction in French and English with native English-speaking teachers and French teachers collaborating across languages. The preschool aims to foster a love of learning and the development of each child's personality, while the elementary program prioritises mastery of French and early mathematics. The bilingual program uses half-day blocks in French and English on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays; the school day runs roughly 9:00–16:30 in maternelle and 8:30–16:30 in élémentaire. CM1 and CM2 are under State contract, guaranteeing progression to 6e. Most staff have more than 15 years' experience, supporting continuity and cross-language collaboration through projects. The founder, Isabelle Fiquet, established Greenfield in 1988 to offer early bilingual education in a family-like setting, emphasizing respect, self-esteem, tolerance and openness. Cambridge Primary is integrated, with Movers and Flyers exams for CE2/CM2 and a high success rate.
