A family school
EFIK is a small school that keeps a family spirit. The school accepts children from two years old and up to the college (CNED version). In a verdant setting far from noise pollution, we ensure the development of our pupils and their health (our rooms are equipped with air purifiers to reduce significantly the level of pollution).
Our model remains that of a family school that takes into account the needs of students and their parents.

Coming to EFIK means choosing to combine excellence and conviviality, ambition and tolerance, success and sharing.
The school premises
The school is located in the North of Kathmandu, in the quiet area of Lazimpat. The school is composed by two buildings : an old Rana house which constitutes the main body; and a second wing, dedicated to kindergarten. Nepal is a country with high seismic risk. Our buildings take into account this risk. Therefore, the structure of the main building was reinforced in 2011, while the second building, constructed the same year, was made out of earthquake proof materials.
In total, nine classrooms, two large playgrounds, a kitchen, a laboratory, a lounge space for secondary students, a veranda and various spaces for workshops constitute the learning and development environment of our students. Within the library room, the school has more than 3500 books in French and English. Games and sport equipment (sandbox, balloons, bikes, etc.) are also available for our students.
