Reviews of the French High School in Madrid
The Liceo Francés Luis Buñuel is, without a doubt, the leading institution for French education in Madrid. Its history, size, and affiliation with the AEFE network have earned it well-deserved prestige. If you’re researching French schools for your child and have come this far, you’re probably already familiar with it.
This page is not intended to call that reputation into question. We aim to help you understand what families who have sent their children to the Liceo during preschool value, and to explain why some of them have chosen École Pomme d'Api as an alternative or as their first choice for their youngest children.

Parent Testimonials
What parents who have entrusted us with raising their children have to say
The best school for little ones in the entire Community of Madrid! Highly recommended—from day one, the staff has treated the children with great respect and affection, and exceptional, highly qualified professionals have guided them as they grow. A wonderful family you can always count on. Thank you so much for everything, always!
A fantastic school for preschoolers, with a dedicated principal, ideal management given the children’s young age, and a rich cultural environment. The children graduate with perfect French for 6-year-olds and a very high level of cultural awareness; above all, they are VERY well cared for, and the school is completely flexible when it comes to each family’s needs.
My daughters happily went to school every day; they always had a lot of affection for their teachers and teaching assistants. Classes are taught in French, and they have two hours of Spanish per week. The principal, Mathias, is a good person who is always attentive to the needs of the students and their families.
A great little school. It’s a small, welcoming school. The staff is friendly, and the care given to the children is excellent. The teachers are very attentive to the children and are great educators. We’ve been very happy at the school over the years. We highly recommend it.
