Les Ateliers FL Nice

Les Ateliers FL Nice is located at 3 rue Alfred Mortier in Nice, close to Place Masséna and the seafront. The school is part of a five-campus network operated by the same organisation across Paris, Nice, Bordeaux, Biarritz and Lyon. The Nice campus rebranded as Les Ateliers FL in 2023, having previously operated as France Langue Nice, following its integration into the International House network.

French for life in Nice

The school is an official TCF IRN examination centre, administering the Test de Connaissance du Français pour l'Immigration, la Résidence et la Nationalité — the test required by French authorities for long-term residency and nationality applications. Regular monthly examination sessions run from March through December.

The French-language curriculum is structured to serve a broad learner population. Standard and intensive General French programmes form the core weekly timetable, running Monday to Friday from 08:30 to 17:00 for most of the year, from January through December 2026. Specialist courses address particular student profiles: French for Expats supports newly arrived residents integrating into French daily and professional life; the Club 50+ programme caters to older adult learners; and French for Au Pairs serves young people in live-in childcare roles. English-language courses are also available on campus. Professional and academic French pathways complete the offer for learners with specific vocational or study goals.

For someone already living in Nice, a course for residents or au pairs may be a closer fit than a short intensive stay. Working hours, the permitted time away from a host family and the length of the stay all affect that choice.
