Lycée Libanais Francophone Privé Meydan is a French school in Dubai's Meydan district taking a child from the age of two to the final year. One subtlety a parent should know: the AEFE homologation covers the stages from Petite Section to the final year, while the youngest group - Toute Petite Section - sits outside it, with a French-speaking environment and separate support for the very young. Teaching is in French; Arabic runs from the youngest group and is split into mother-tongue and foreign-language levels as the Emirati authorities require, English runs from the first years, and from the fifth year of collège pupils taking Arabic as a foreign language may add Spanish. The campus is large and new: 35,686 square metres, seven green buildings with solar panels linked by walkways among landscaped courtyards; the Dorsch Gruppe design won two 2021 awards - Sustainable Project of the Year and Design Education Project of the Year. Wellbeing is taught as a curriculum of its own, in which pupils work through its intellectual, social, emotional, physical and environmental dimensions.

AEFEAgency for French Education Abroad
It runs the network of French schools worldwide, while the accreditation itself, the homologation, is granted by the French education ministry and inspected by French state inspectors. A leaver from a homologated school moves into a school in France without an entrance examination. Homologation is granted stage by stage, so it sometimes covers only part of the year groups.
What the badge means for this school. The school has been through this organisation's accreditation. It was judged as a whole: governance, safeguarding, staff, premises, teaching. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it.

The state programme of France. A school is homologated by the French ministry of education, and a leaver may move into a school in France without entrance tests. Homologation is granted stage by stage, so it sometimes covers only part of the year groups.
What this means for this school. Which year groups of this school are covered by homologation - only the primary ones, or all the way to the final year - is not stated here. The difference matters: it decides whether the school takes a child through to the French baccalaureate or hands them on to another school halfway.
Exams and destinations from the school's official website
The school publishes nothing about where its leavers go: no share going on to university, no exam results, no list of universities.

A low score here means the school does not write about this, not that the school does not have it: a school with good security and a sparse site will score low. A school can fill in its profile, and the score will be counted again.
The score is counted from 8 of the 9 criteria.Only those with checkable data count: programmes and accreditations from official registers, the fee from a published price list. Where it says "scored on the median", the school has no data and the middle of the list is put in its place, so that a gap gives no advantage. Admissions, teaching staff and reviews come in as their data arrives.
