Other Amenities
Collège Français Bilingue de Londres (CFBL) operates as an inclusive mainstream school that prioritizes the early identification and tailored support of pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). Guided by a dedicated on-site SENCO and a multidisciplinary team—including a speech and language therapist and a school psychologist—the school implements Personalized Support Plans (such as the French PAP or PPRE frameworks) to provide reasonable adjustments within its bilingual curriculum. Support is delivered through a graduated approach involving high-quality differentiated teaching, small-group interventions for core subjects like French and Maths, and close collaboration with external agencies for more complex needs. While the school manages a wide range of conditions, including dyslexia, dyspraxia, and ADHD, families are encouraged to share existing documentation during the admissions process to ensure the bilingual, French-national framework can adequately meet the child’s specific requirements.
