Lome - Post Report Question and Answers

What is the availability of international schools? What has been your general experience with them, if any?

There are several good school options in Lome including the Lycee Francais, the British School of Lome, Arc-en-Ciel and Cours Lumiere. Most have a good variety of education options, sports, international teachers and links to different curriculums. If your child has any special needs, this could be more challenging so it's important to reach out to the schools before coming to Togo to make sure they will have the right support. - Aug 2025


There are a few schools I've seen but I can't comment since I do not have children here. - Mar 2019


Our kids are grown. There are several schools, including the French school (I hear it's ok), Arc en Ciel (has both English and French programs) and what's called the British School. I haven't heard anything particularly good about this latter. There's also an American Overseas school that doesn't seem like it will last much longer. - Feb 2019


I dont have kids but I know there was a British school and a very good French one. - Sep 2017


There are three main choices for expats: the British School, the French School, and Arc-en-Ciel. We've been very pleased with the British School, which is inside our gated community. - Aug 2015


The British school is the best. The French school is also considered good as well. - May 2014
