The Lycée Français de Shanghai (Shanghai French School) has published the relevant admissions information on its official website, and from 16 November parents may submit an online enrolment application for their child.

伴随国际教育需求持续增长，怎样给孩子挑选恰当的学校，并且顺利完成申请，变成众多家庭留意的重点。上海法国外籍人员子女学校（Lycée Français de Shanghai）已在官方网站发布相关信息，自11月16日起，家长可为孩子在线提交入学申请。本文汇总其中的关键信息：关键日期、注册条件、校区选择、语言路径、材料准备，以及提交之后的后续流程。
1. Key Dates and the Online Application Window | 关键日期与在线申请窗口
Every year, on 16 November, the school's online application system opens. From that date onwards, parents submit an enrolment application for their child through the school's official website. The entire application process is completed online, so parents should read all registration-related information published on the website well before the window opens. Because the date is fixed and widely publicised, families can plan their preparation around it with confidence.
每年11月16日，上海法国外籍人员子女学校的在线申请系统开放。自该日期起，家长可通过学校官方网站为孩子提交入学申请。整个申请过程全部在线上完成，因此家长应在此日期之前，提前在网站上查阅所有与注册有关的详细信息。由于该日期固定且广为公布，家庭完全可以从容地围绕它规划准备工作。
The table below summarises the most important facts at a glance.

| Item 项目 | Details 内容 |
| Online application opens 在线申请开放 | 16 November each year 每年11月16日 |
| Application channel 申请渠道 | Official school website, fully online 学校官方网站，全程线上 |

2. Registration Conditions and the Official Website | 注册条件与官方网站信息
Before applying, parents must study carefully the specific registration conditions and the necessary steps listed by the school. These are published on the school's official website, and they should be treated as the single authoritative source. Requirements can differ according to entry level and campus, so second-hand summaries circulating in chat groups should never replace the official list.
申请之前，家长务必细致地了解学校所罗列的特定注册条件以及必要步骤。这些内容发布在学校官方网站上，应被视为唯一权威来源。不同入学年级、不同校区的要求可能并不相同，因此聊天群里流传的二手总结，绝不能替代官方清单。
Reading the conditions early also allows a family to judge realistically whether the school is a good fit: language level, entry year, campus distance and the family's own timeline all come into play. A short list helps keep the process organised.
提早阅读注册条件，也能让家庭现实地判断学校是否合适：语言水平、入学年份、校区距离以及家庭自身的时间安排，都会产生影响。把要点列成清单，有助于让整个流程更有条理。
- Check the entry-level requirements for your child's year group. 核对孩子所在年级的入学要求。
- Confirm which campus accepts applications for that year group. 确认该年级由哪个校区受理申请。
- Note the document list and any translation or notarisation rules. 记下材料清单以及翻译、公证方面的规定。
- Record the opening date of the online system in your calendar. 把在线系统开放日期记入日程。
3. Campus Choice I: Puxi and Pudong for K1 to Grade 6 | 校区选择之一：浦西与浦东（幼儿园小班至小学六年级）
The school has two main campuses, one located in Puxi and the other in Pudong. Both campuses open applications for children from the Petite Section of kindergarten (K1) up to Grade 6 of primary school. This arrangement brings genuine geographical convenience to families living in different parts of Shanghai, since a long daily commute is one of the factors that most affects a young child's experience.
这所学校具备两个主要校区，其中一个校区在浦西，另一个校区在浦东。针对幼儿园小班（Petite Section，K1）直至小学六年级的学生，这两个校区都开放申请。这样的安排给居住于上海市各不相同区域的家庭带来了地理上的便利，因为每天漫长的通勤，恰恰是最影响低龄孩子体验的因素之一。
When comparing the two campuses, families typically weigh travel time, sibling arrangements and after-school logistics. The choice of campus should ideally be settled before the application is submitted, because applications are processed for a specific campus rather than for the school as a whole.
在比较两个校区时，家庭通常要权衡通勤时间、兄弟姐妹的安排以及课后接送等实际问题。校区选择最好在提交申请之前就确定下来，因为申请是按具体校区受理的，而不是笼统地面向整所学校。
4. Yangpu Campus: Applications from Grade 7 to Grade 12 | 杨浦校区：初一至高三的申请
From Grade 7 (the first year of lower secondary) all the way through to Grade 12 (the final year of upper secondary), applications are accepted only at the Yangpu Campus. Families with older children therefore have a single, clearly defined application point rather than a choice between sites.
从初中一年级开始，一直到高中三年级，申请只限于杨浦校区。因此，孩子年龄较大的家庭只有一个明确界定的申请入口，而不必在两个校区之间选择。
This concentration has practical advantages for secondary students. Subject teaching, option blocks, examination preparation and pastoral support are gathered on one site, which makes progression through the secondary years more coherent. For families applying for a secondary place, the key question shifts from "which campus?" to "is there a vacancy in this particular year group?"
这种集中安排对中学生而言具有实际优势。学科教学、选修组合、考试准备以及学生关怀都汇聚在一个校区，使中学阶段的衔接更为连贯。对于申请中学学位的家庭来说，关键问题已从"选哪个校区"转变为"这个具体年级是否有空缺名额"。
5. Rolling Admissions and Seat Availability | 全年滚动招生与学位空缺
The school operates a rolling admissions policy throughout the year. However, whether a place can actually be offered is determined by the real seat availability in the relevant year group for that particular year. The school therefore generally advises families to submit their applications early so that a place can be secured.
学校执行全年滚动招生的政策，然而最终能不能被录取，是由当年相关年级实际的学位空缺状况来决定的。所以校方一般情况下会建议家庭尽早提交申请，从而锁定名额。
Rolling admissions does not mean that seats are always open. It means that applications are reviewed as they arrive and measured against the vacancies that exist at that moment. Popular year groups can fill quickly, and a vacancy that exists in October may be gone by December. The process can be pictured simply:
滚动招生并不意味着始终有学位。它意味着申请按到达顺序随时被审核，并与当时的空缺名额进行对照。热门年级可能很快满额，10月份还存在的一个空缺，到了12月也许就已经没有了。整个过程可以简单表示为：
n submitted → Document check → Seat availability review → Assessment (if required) → Offer
提交申请 → 材料核查 → 学位空缺审核 → 评估（如需要） → 录取通知
6. The French Immersion Pathway for Non-French Speakers | 非法语母语学生的法语强化融入路径
From the kindergarten stage onwards, the school accepts students who are not native French speakers, as well as students who have never been exposed to the French education system. To help these children make a smooth transition, the school has established a dedicated French language support programme - an intensive course designed to raise French proficiency quickly, so that students can integrate better into the French academic environment.
从幼儿园阶段起，学校所接收的学生中，包含法语非母语的，或者未接触过法国教育体系的学生。为帮助这部分学生顺利过渡，学校设立了专门的法语强化支持课程。该课程旨在快速提升学生的法语能力，从而帮助他们更好地融入法国的学术环境。
The school states this policy in its own words:
学校用官方表述说明了这一政策：
"From the Petite Section of Kindergarten (K1) on, we welcome non-French speakers with a dedicated support and a specific program to learn French and integrate better into the French curriculum."
Students who join through this pathway are not expected to arrive fluent. The support programme is precisely the mechanism that bridges the gap between a beginner's French and the demands of a French-medium classroom, and it works best when a family applies early enough for the child to benefit from it at the natural entry points.
通过这一路径入学的学生，并不需要在入学时就已流利。强化支持课程正是弥合"初学者的法语水平"与"法语授课课堂要求"之间差距的机制；而只有在家庭申请得足够早、孩子能在自然入学节点上受益时，这套机制才能发挥最好的效果。
7. Limited Non-Native Seats: First Come, First Served | 非母语学生名额有限：先到先得
It is important to note that the number of places the school reserves for non-native speakers is limited. Places are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, which makes the timing of a complete application extremely important. Families in this category should therefore begin the process as early as possible - ideally before the online system opens on 16 November, by gathering and checking documents in advance.
需留意的是，学校针对非母语学生所预留的学位名额数量是有限的。学位分配依照先到先得的原则来进行，所以提交完整申请材料的时间先后，是极为关键重要的。因此这类家庭应当尽早开启申请流程——最好在11月16日系统开放之前，就提前收集并核对好各项材料。
Two practical points follow from this. First, "first come" refers to a complete application, not to a partially saved draft; missing documents push an application back in the queue. Second, because the pool of reserved places is small, a family that delays by a few weeks may find that the relevant year group has already reached its limit.
由此可以得出两个务实结论。第一，"先到"指的是完整提交的申请，而不是保存了一半的草稿；材料缺失会让申请在队列中的位置后移。第二，由于预留名额的池子较小，若家庭拖延几周，可能会发现相应年级已经达到上限。
8. The Trilingual Curriculum Framework | 三语课程体系构成
The school treats language education as a core element of its identity. In the early childhood stage, it begins teaching French, English and Chinese in parallel. This trilingual model is intended to build a solid language foundation for every student, rather than to treat languages as separate, isolated subjects.
学校把语言教育当作核心。在幼儿教育阶段之时，就着手同步教授法语、教授英语、教授汉语。这种三语并行的模式，目的在于为学生筑牢扎实的语言基础，而不是把几种语言当作彼此孤立的学科来看待。
Learning three languages from an early age develops cognitive flexibility, strengthens listening accuracy and gives children the confidence to move between cultural contexts. For families who expect to relocate internationally in the future, this breadth is one of the most transferable assets a
