Ecole Francaise de Londres Jacques Prévert

What Ecole Francaise de Londres Jacques Prévert does

Ecole Française de Londres Jacques Prévert is a private French primary school operating from a single campus at 59 Brook Green, Hammersmith, London. It enrolls approximately 285 children aged 3 to 11 across the French national curriculum levels from Petite Section (preschool) to CM2 (Year 6), with a Pre-reception nursery added in September 2024 that extends the age range downward. The school is homologated by the French Ministry of Education (Ministère de l'Education Nationale) and conventioned with the AEFE (Agence pour l'Enseignement Français à l'Etranger), placing it within a global network of roughly 500 French schools serving 350,000 students across 137 countries.

The educational product combines the homologated French national curriculum with comprehensive English-language instruction, a dedicated PSHCE curriculum with an empathy programme (launched May 2024), and digital learning tools centered on Google Classroom. Extracurricular offerings include Radio Prévert (a school radio programme), language clubs (Chinese, Spanish, French FLSco, English), Mini First Aid workshops, drama workshops via Perform, emotional resilience workshops, sports and arts programming, and after-school garderie (childcare). Pedagogical oversight is provided by an Inspecteur de l'Education Nationale based in London through the French Embassy, and a transition pathway partnership with Lycée français Charles de Gaulle ensures secondary-school continuity for graduating CM2 students.

The business model is a direct-enrollment, tuition-funded private school with annual recurring fees billed to individual families. Distribution is entirely direct — families apply through the school's admissions office, with scholarships/bourses available through the French state bursary programme for eligible French-national families. The school markets primarily via its website, social media (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn), open days/school visits, word-of-mouth within the French expatriate community, and referrals from the AEFE network. Revenue figures are not publicly disclosed. The school received an Ofsted Outstanding rating in June 2022 and is led by Directrice Sylvie Wanin with a deputy head, English Department Head, Student Life Manager, SEN/EBEP coordinator, and PSHE lead among the documented leadership team.
