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. As part of the Agency for French Education Abroad (AEFE) network, the school maintains a specific focus on linguistic integration. Facilities include a daily canteen service providing hot meals and a private bus network for student transportation across the city.
