Lycée Français du Cap

Lycée Français du Cap is Cape Town's French international school, affiliated with the AEFE (Agence pour l'Enseignement Français à l'Étranger) network, offering French families curriculum continuity at the southern tip of Africa. The high school is located in Gardens, Cape Town, while the primary school campus is situated in Sea Point — two of the city's most desirable and centrally located neighbourhoods. The school delivers the complete French national curriculum from maternelle (nursery) through terminale (Year 13), culminating in the French Baccalauréat. The curriculum is also aligned with Cambridge International standards, providing students with dual-pathway qualifications for French and British university entry. The school year follows three terms starting in September, aligned with the French academic calendar. Annual tuition fees range from approximately R60,000 to R112,000 per year. The Lycée du Cap serves the French diplomatic community, Alliance Française staff, French business executives, and Francophone families from across France, French-speaking Africa, and other countries. Its central Cape Town locations and AEFE affiliation make it the natural choice for French-speaking expatriate families relocating to the Western Cape.
