SCHOOL MANAGEMENT AND PARENTS’ ASSOCIATION
The Lycée Français René Descartes is accredited by the Agency for French Education Abroad (AEFE).
The LFRD is co-governed by a non-profit association (PA – board of Board of DIrectors) and by the management team (appointed by the AEFE). The respective roles of the Board of Directors members are defined by an agreement signed with the AEFE. The governance of the LFRD is therefore based on a strong partnership between elected parents and the school’s management team.
