Lycée franco-libanais Alphonse de Lamartine

What Lycée franco-libanais Alphonse de Lamartine does

Lycée franco-libanais Alphonse de Lamartine (LADL) is a private, non-profit K-12 educational institution headquartered in Kfar Kahel, Tripoli, in North Lebanon, operating 47 employees across a main campus and a separate maternelle annex in Tripoli. The school is affiliated with the Mission Laïque Française (MLF) global network, with the Ambassade de France au Liban and AEFE (Agence pour l'Enseignement Français à l'Étranger) providing institutional oversight and access to the official French national curriculum (Éducation nationale française). It delivers trilingual instruction in French, Arabic, and English from maternelle through Terminale, preparing students for the French Baccalauréat and Diplôme National du Brevet (DNB), with Parcoursup orientation support for post-secondary admission in France.

The academic offering is anchored on the French national curriculum and supplemented by differentiated pedagogical programs: the Dominos student-run quarterly newspaper (CE1/CM1/CM2 editorial committee), a primary-school Webradio program producing interviews and audio content (hosted on SoundCloud), philosophy workshops (Atelier-philo) starting at CE2, and an E3D (Établissement en Démarche de Développement Durable) sustainable development curriculum featuring a school garden, chicken coop, and beehives. Operational technology consists of Pronote for grades, attendance, and parent communication; Book Creator for digital publishing; and Scratch for coding education. Student enrollment and re-enrollment are processed through the Eduka platform (mlflflt.eduka.school).

Revenue is generated primarily through recurring annual tuition fees (écolages) billed per academic year, with additional paid services including school bus transport and canteen services (provided by Hallab 1881 under the La Cafette by Hallab partnership, established 2025-09-25). French national scholarship programs (Bourses scolaires AEFE) are available to eligible French-national families. The school markets itself through MLF/AEFE institutional channels, its official website, social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, SoundCloud), and community events including the Semaine des Lycées Français du Monde. Customer concentration is diffuse across individual North Lebanese families, with no enterprise customers.
