Enrolment is organised annually for European School Luxembourg I. For 2026-2027, the Enrolment Period runs from 2 March to 27 March 2026. Rules on admission to and operation for the European Schools of Luxembourg 2026-2027 exist; each of the two Luxembourg European Schools organises its admissions independently and gives priority to undersubscribed language sections; admission is decided on a case-by-case basis. Application forms for admission for categories I, II and III will be published; for 2026-2027 the documents will be published at the end of February 2026. Language-section routes: BG, ES, ET, FI, LT, LV, NL, PL, PT, SV should be sent to European School Luxembourg I; DE, EN and FR sections may be sent to either Luxembourg European School, with analysis by the two Schools. Documents to attach to the enrolment file include two passport photos; a birth certificate; school reports (and interim reports as applicable); custody documents if relevant; attestation from employer; certificate of residence; the Medical Service form and vaccination record; and documentation for any required educational support. A School Medical Questionnaire is provided and information about fees is available in the memorandum for parents.
Financial assistance from the CAS (Comité des Activités Sociales) supports families of pupils at the European School Luxembourg I. The CAS provides an annual budget to fund assistance for school trips and educational projects approved by the director, with the school acting as fiduciary and assistance being deducted from trip invoices. Eligibility includes household income below a defined threshold, proven financial difficulties, lack of other full coverage, and no outstanding debts to the school. The amount of aid depends on net disposable income and family size, ranging from a minimum of EUR 150 plus up to a share of trip costs (up to 50% for one child, up to 62.5% for two children, up to 83.5% for three or more children). Applications must be submitted between 15 January and 15 March for trips and travel projects; required documents include a signed application, household composition, the last three payslips for each parent, proof of child benefit, unemployment certificate if applicable, custody documentation, and any relevant educational documentation. Processing is conducted by the school's accounting department and final decisions are made by the Director; if the budget is exceeded grants are prorated and there is no administrative appeal.
