We at Lycée believe that an essential need of our society is for a community of people with deep faith, sound knowledge, intellectual and emotional maturity and more integrity to build a truly humane society.

We accept students from every caste, creed and community and strive to educate them in the high ideals of humanism. The purpose of this school is not only to impart instruction but also to educate and help the students to become mature human beings, to encourage them continually to strive after excellence in every field, without however neglecting the development of moral character, self-esteem and a sense of responsibility.

The school was started in 1982 by Rector, Sri Somnath Mitra with 35 students, main idea being propagation of education in English medium among middle class children. Very soon LYCÉE became one of the most sought after school amongst the guardians of school going children and with its affiliation to the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examination in 1993, there was no looking back. The school was handed over to a society in 1992 and is run by Suneha Education Society wherein Mr. Somnath Mitra being the Chairman and Sharmila Mitra is the Secretary.

Today LYCÉE is a big family of approximately 2000 students, 75 dedicated & competent teachers and 30 hardworking non – teaching staff headed by the Rector Mr. Somnath Mitra and the Principal Sharmila Mitra.

The school is housed in three separate buildings. Nursery and Primary departments run from 19, Mahanirban Road and 139, R. B. Avenue, while the middle school and Secondary classes are held at 10/1, Hindusthan Road.
