Head of School

The Danielle Mitterrand French School, founded in 2009, is proud to uphold the values and excellence of French education. Located in the heart of Erbil, our school warmly and kindly welcomes nearly 150 students, from preschool to grade 12, representing more than ten nationalities.

 

We offer our students a rich multilingual education: French and English on a daily basis, complemented by Kurdish and Arabic classes. Starting in middle school, they can also discover Spanish, allowing them to broaden their linguistic and cultural horizons even further.

 

Rooted in a strong history and a tradition of openness cherished by the network of French schools abroad, our school is a true place of encounters and exchange. Every day, we strive to create a warm, safe, and stimulating environment where each child can fully flourish, both academically and personally.

 

Whether you are a local family, newly arrived, or long-established, we are committed to supporting every student and providing them with the solid foundations for a promising future.

 

We are delighted to share this new school year with you and your children, in a spirit of trust, mutual respect, and excellence. Welcome to our community.
