A message from Sophie Wierre, LFIR director

Welcome to the French International School of Yangon Joseph Kessel!

The LFIR, part of the AEFE (Agency for French Education Abroad) network, offers a fully accredited program by the French Ministry of Education, starting from preschool (small section) to CM2. From there, CNED continues up to 5th grade.

We are proud to be the only AEFE-affiliated school in Myanmar. With over 580 schools across 139 countries, AEFE represents the largest global network of international schools.

Choosing LFIR means choosing a school that values a family-like environment while holding great ambitions. We strive for excellence, not only in welcoming students and families but also in offering a rich and varied educational experience.

Our ambition extends to providing a multicultural environment that enriches students’ perspectives. In the Primary section, language learning is enhanced through additional courses and specialized support for new French-speaking students, ensuring they receive the full benefit of French educational excellence.

At the heart of LFIR’s mission is the success of each student. Our focus is on academic progress, personal growth, multicultural appreciation, eco-responsibility, and citizenship development. These values guide both our teaching and administrative teams every day.
