Inside Europe’s schools.
Closer to the right choice.
James Liu visits schools in Luxembourg, Switzerland and the Netherlands, meeting heads, owners and teaching teams and exploring classrooms, boarding, dining and activities. LEP turns that first-hand understanding into school choices, applications and arrival plans for your child.
We support families already living in Luxembourg, families planning to relocate, and international students coming to Europe independently.

A school decision.
A whole family to consider.
I have over 20 years of experience in international education. I live and run businesses in Luxembourg, and I am a parent myself. I consider the classroom, daily life, how a child will settle in and what comes next as parts of the same decision.

How LEP supports your familyGet to know the school
Repeated visits and direct conversations help us compare teaching, school culture, accommodation and everyday life against your child’s needs.
Turn conversations into practical next steps
With heads and owners we stay in contact with, we can discuss the student’s circumstances directly and coordinate assessments, documents and application timing.
Connect admission with daily life
We coordinate with schools, parents and host families in Luxembourg, and boarding schools in Switzerland and the Netherlands. This includes school and accommodation documents for the applicable visa process, alongside arrival preparation.
Keep the next stage in view
We consider IB, A Level and other routes alongside future university plans and the family budget. We organise school visits each quarter so families can explore further.
A family’s experience · Luxembourg
From an urgent school search
to the first day in class.
A student needed a special short-term placement after term had started, with parents unable to stay locally. LEP coordinated school discussions and a trial visit, then aligned the family’s existing host-family arrangement with the school’s requirements.
7 SEP 2026
The work begins
Direct contact with the Head to discuss year placement and a trial visit.
14 SEP 2026
A formal offer
School assessment completed and family documents put in place.
16 SEP 2026
The first day of class
A school meeting with the host family took place before the start.
“Finding a suitable school place was the decisive step that allowed us to make the stay in Luxembourg happen.”
Excerpt from a parent’s email, translated from German
Nine days from paid engagement to the start of classes, in a case involving a family within the EU. This did not include an overseas visa process; the full account explains the circumstances.
Decisions that matter
Start with the question on your mind.
What if my child’s English is still developing?
Explore entry assessments, language support and preparation for an English-medium school.
Can a child study here while parents live abroad?
School admission, host-family arrangements and daily support need to be considered together.
What should we budget for a full year?
Consider tuition, accommodation and other necessary expenses as a complete family budget.
When should we apply? Is a mid-year move possible?
Understand availability, assessment timing and how the student’s courses will fit.
IB or A Level for the next stage?
Match subject strengths and workload with future university requirements.
Who pays for LEP’s application support?
Partner schools fund the application support. School and host-family services for children in Luxembourg have a separate fee arrangement.
Can school and regular riding fit together?
Explore Eerde and Saint-Charles through training needs, school programmes and the annual budget.
How do IMI internships connect with a career?
Understand course placements, career preparation and LEP’s professional network in Europe.

Speak directly with James Liu
We can talk in English, French or Chinese.
Schools pay for LEP’s application support, so families pay no LEP application-service fee. School applications, host-family matching and ongoing local support for children studying in Luxembourg are a separate paid service. We explain the scope and fees for each family.
