The Lycée Franco-Allemand de Strasbourg ( German: Deutsch-Französisches Gymnasium Straßburg, abbreviated as DFG / LFA Strasbourg) is a French-German public secondary school opened in September 2021. It is the fifth DFG / LFA to open [2] and the second of its type in France.
The school is run by the school authority ( académie) of Strasbourg. It is situated on the premises of the Collège Vauban, an international school with Korean, Polish, and Portuguese international branches (sections internationales). [3] The LFA Strasbourg replaced its German branch. [2]
The French minister of education Jean-Michel Blanquer announced the opening of the LFA Strasbourg at a French-German ministerial meeting on 25 January 2021. [4] [5] The French director of the other DFG / LFA in France, at Buc near Paris, learned of the Strasbourg LFA on the same day. [6] [7]
Students who wanted to join the LFA Strasbourg in the 2021–22 academic year had to sit an oral and written exam in German in March 2021. [8] [9] The school opened with the beginning of the school year of the Collège Vauban on 2 September 2021. [10] The LFA Strasbourg started with around 60 school beginners, [1] among around 170 enrolled at the Collège Vauban. [10]
The DFG/LFA Strasbourg was previously the German Section Internationale of the Lycée Vauban and as such, its students entering until the 2020-21 academic year graduate with a French Baccalauréat with German Option Internationale du Baccalauréat (OIB). It is also possible to switch to the Lycée International des Pontonniers in Strasbourg and do the AbiBac. [11] The first Strasbourg students will graduate with the French-German Baccalaureate in 2029.
Shortly after the opening, the French education minister at the time, Jean-Michel Blanquer visited the school and said that his goal was to have more schools of this type in France. [12] [13] Metz, the capital of the French Moselle border region, is a candidate for a sixth French-German School. [14]
