History
Formerly the École Française de Shanghai,[6] it was established in 1995 as an elementary through high school in Changning District, adjacent to the Xijiao State Guest Hotel. The initial enrollment was 13. The German School Shanghai and LFS began collaborating and having a common campus circa 1997, and around that same time the school began its relationship with the AEFE. The Qingpu campus opened in 2005, and the Yangpu campus opened in 2019.[7]
Formerly there was a Pudong campus, on the property of the Shanghai Gold Apple Bilingual School.[8][9] The Yangpu campus replaced the Pudong campus.[10]
The school became a testing center for Cambridge examinations in 2017.[10]
The prestigious Concours Général des Lycées et des Métiers brings together the best students from France and French international schools to compete across various disciplines. In 2024, Shanghai French School proudly secured the 10th spot among 24,453 students from all participating schools! [11]
