Fees

School fees

As a private school and independently-funded charity, we don’t receive funding from the French or UK governments. All fees support the daily operation of the school – salaries, academic resources, equipment – and any profits are reinvested to further improve the school and the quality of teaching.

Our school fees for the year 2023-2024 are:

  • Early years (Nursery, Reception, Year 1 | Maternelle PS/MS/GS): £15,440

  • Primary (Years 2-6 | CP-CM2): £13,420

  • Secondary (Years 7-10 | 6ème-3ème): £13,700

These fees include school lunches (4 lunches per week for early years and primary, 5 lunches per week for secondary). You can find a detailed breakdown of the fees here.

The school fees for the 2025-2026 school year will be announced in December 2024.

New students

New students will also have to pay the pre-registration fee and, if their application is accepted and they are offered a place at CFBL, they will need to pay the first registration fee. This fee only applies to new students, and only for their first year at CFBL.

Pre-registration fee: £135

First registration fee:

  • Maternelle to 4ème: £1350

Other fees

Parents also need to provide their child’s school supplies, PE kit (CFBL kit for all pupils except PSM, MSM, GSM) and textbooks (secondary pupils only).

3ème students will also need to pay the DNB fee (about £40).

School fees are paid in four instalments: a £1000 advance on fees, and the remained to be paid in three instalments (one per trimester).
