| Qualities and characteristics best defining the school |
Founded in 2006, the Lycée Français International Théodore Monod (LFITM) has established itself as an educational benchmark in Abu Dhabi. Welcoming 1,750 students, it offers outstanding French education, enriched by a multilingual and multicultural approach, preparing students for a future open to the world. Families can choose between two learning pathways: • A French–English bilingual pathway, taught by native-speaking teachers and following the Cambridge curriculum, enabling students to gain a strong command of both languages. • A standard French pathway, aligned with the French national curriculum, ensuring a rigorous and well-balanced progression of core academic skills. |
| Teaching approach of the school |
In a constantly changing world, LFITM believes that education goes beyond the transmission of knowledge. It is also about preparing its students to become the responsible, engaged, and open-minded citizens of tomorrow. This includes, of course, academic excellence, but also social and emotional skills — the ability to cooperate, innovate, and adapt. |
