LFHED is a bilingual French–Greek lycée in Agia Paraskevi, Athens, serving ages 3 to 18. It follows the Greek Ministry of Education curriculum with exemptions that reflect its dual orientation, preparing students for Greek higher education through panhellenic exams and for French universities via Parcoursup. The school is the only Greek establishment where French-language instruction is certified by the French state. It operates two worlds in one: a French curriculum from preschool to terminale and a Greek curriculum from Gymnasio to Lykeio, on a campus. A strong Vie Scolaire supports well-being, with a CPE and eleven education assistants, and guidance on studies in France. Facilities include a large dining hall and the Bibliothèque Centre Documentaire (BCD) with about 12,000 works. The AES after-school program provides activities in French and Greek, including sport (swimming, tennis), arts, and robotics. Erasmus+ exchanges and a Model United Nations program enrich student life for all.
