Paris is home to the largest concentration of international schools in France — a network of American, British, German, Japanese, Chinese, and International Baccalaureate institutions that serve the expatriate executive families, diplomatic communities, and UHNW families who maintain a Paris residence as part of a multi-city lifestyle. The geography of the Paris international school network is distributed across the western suburbs: the American School of Paris is in Saint-Cloud (Hauts-de-Seine, 15 kilometres from central Paris), the British School of Paris is in Croissy-sur-Seine (Yvelines, 19 kilometres), Marymount International is in Neuilly-sur-Seine (directly west of Paris, bordering the 17th arrondissement), and the major French bilingual lycées are distributed across the 15th, 16th, and 17th arrondissements. FFGR manages the school transport programme as a term-time standing arrangement — a daily pickup and drop-off schedule built around each school's term calendar and the family's programme.
American School of Paris — Saint-Cloud
The American School of Paris (41 Rue Pasteur, Saint-Cloud, Hauts-de-Seine — ASP) is the largest English-language independent school in France, serving approximately 800 students from Early Childhood through Grade 12. The Saint-Cloud campus is accessible from Paris via the A13 autoroute (exit at Saint-Cloud) or the Boulevards des Maréchaux and the Pont de Sèvres, then the N10 south. From the 8th arrondissement hotels and residences, the transit to ASP runs twenty-five to thirty-five minutes in morning traffic.
ASP operates a drop-off and pick-up system at the Rue Pasteur entrance — FFGR manages the school run timing to arrive within the school's designated drop-off window (08h00–08h30 for morning drop-off, 15h30–16h00 for afternoon pick-up). For UHNW families with multiple children at ASP, FFGR coordinates a single vehicle if the children share the same schedule or provides two vehicles for split schedules. The ASP school run, when combined with the family's morning programme (adult activities, work commitments, or leisure), is managed as part of the family's overall daily transport rather than as a standalone school transfer.
British School of Paris — Croissy-sur-Seine
The British School of Paris (38 Quai de l'Écluse, Croissy-sur-Seine, Yvelines — BSP) is located 19 kilometres west of central Paris, accessible via the A13 to the Poissy exit, then the D157 to Croissy. The Croissy-sur-Seine campus is on the Seine waterfront — the approach is from the Quai de l'Écluse, a riverside road with specific drop-off access points managed by the school.
For British School families residing in central Paris or the western arrondissements (16th, 8th), the BSP school run is approximately thirty to forty minutes each way — longer than the ASP transit due to the greater distance and the D157 approach road. FFGR positions the vehicle at the Croissy school gate within the designated drop-off window. For families whose BSP children participate in after-school activities (the school operates until 17h30 for activities), FFGR manages the extended afternoon pick-up as a standing instruction on the days that after-school activities are scheduled.
Marymount International School — Neuilly-sur-Seine
Marymount International School Paris (72 Boulevard de la Saussaye, Neuilly-sur-Seine) is located in the commune of Neuilly-sur-Seine, directly west of Paris — ten to fifteen minutes from the 8th, 16th, and 17th arrondissements. The Boulevard de la Saussaye is a residential street in Neuilly, accessible from the Avenue Charles de Gaulle (the main axis through Neuilly-sur-Seine) or from the Pont de Neuilly direction.
For families residing in the 8th arrondissement or Neuilly itself, the Marymount school run is the shortest of the major international school routes — often fifteen to twenty minutes. FFGR manages the Marymount school run as a single-vehicle programme even for families with multiple children, given the proximity of the school to the major residential areas. For diplomatic families in Neuilly whose children attend Marymount, FFGR provides a vehicle and driver available from the morning school run through the afternoon collection as a standing term-time arrangement.
French bilingual lycées — the Paris city school run
Several major French bilingual and international lycées operate within Paris proper: the École Active Bilingue Jeanine Manuel (rue du Colonel Combes, 7th arrondissement and rue Blomet, 15th arrondissement), the Lycée Français de la Légion d'Honneur (17th arrondissement), the Cours Montaigne (16th arrondissement), and the Lycée Molière (Passy, 16th arrondissement). These institutions are within Paris — the school run from a central Paris hotel or residence to these schools is typically ten to twenty minutes.
For in-Paris school runs, FFGR manages the daily drop-off and collection as part of the family's general vehicle programme — the school vehicle is the same vehicle that handles the family's other daily transport rather than a dedicated school run vehicle. The driver adjusts the morning programme to accommodate the school drop-off before continuing to the adult members of the family's first appointment.
School holidays and activity transport
The Paris international school calendar produces several two-week holiday breaks (Toussaint in October, Christmas, February/Carnival, Easter, and the Grandes Vacances from late June through early September) during which UHNW families may remain in Paris or transition between residences. During school holidays, FFGR provides the activity transport that substitutes for the term-time school run: sports facilities (Institut National du Sport at Vincennes, the Racing Club de France), cultural programmes (museum visits, language classes, music conservatories), and the social circuits of the UHNW family holiday programme in Paris.
For families transitioning between Paris and their secondary or tertiary residence during school holidays (Côte d'Azur, Switzerland, the UK), FFGR manages the transit to CDG or Le Bourget as a family luggage and passenger transport operation scaled to the holiday departure volume.
Booking school transport with FFGR Paris
School transport is booked as a term-time programme rather than on a per-day basis — FFGR establishes the standing instruction at the beginning of each school term with the family's schedule (school address, drop-off and pick-up times, after-school activity schedule, and any variations by day of the week). The school transport programme is managed through a single WhatsApp channel with the family's household manager or personal assistant.
Contact us at reservation@ffgrparis.com or WhatsApp +33 7 43 46 14 91. For new school year start (early September), FFGR recommends establishing the school transport programme in mid-August to allow the driver to familiarise with the specific school access points and the family's morning schedule before the first day of term.

The Paris international school transport circuit — from the American School of Paris in Saint-Cloud to Marymount in Neuilly to the bilingual lycées of the 15th and 16th arrondissements — is a term-time programme that FFGR manages as a standing arrangement, not a series of individual bookings. The school run is the foundation of the family's daily transport, and FFGR builds the full family programme around it. Contact us: reservation@ffgrparis.com · WhatsApp +33 7 43 46 14 91.
