Lycée Michel Lucius LML (also known as Lycée Technique Michel Lucius, 1979–2013 and Le Collège d’Enseignement Moyen de Luxembourg, 1965–1979) is a high school in Luxembourg City, in Luxembourg.[1] It is located on Campus Limpertsberg, along with several other educational institutions, including the University of Luxembourg, in the quarter of Limpertsberg, in the north-west of the city.[2]
In July 2013, the school adopted the name Lycée Michel Lucius, reflecting a broader programme which now includes English-language A-Level/IGCSE studies.[3] [4] The revised school name was requested by Luxembourg's Ministry of Education.[5] While the government acknowledges the new name, its official recognition has been delayed by older, conflicting legislation concerning the naming of secondary schools in Luxembourg opened prior to 2004.[6] With the law of 23 December 2016, the school legally takes the name "Lycée Michel Lucius" with the start of the academic year 2017/2018 when it will also offer International Anglophone primary school education, key stage 1 and 2, years 1 through 6.
The school is named after Michel Lucius: a teacher, author, Doctor of Geology, and the founder of the Service Géologique de Luxembourg.[7]
The school is served by four local buses (numbers 2, 8, and 30), providing a direct connection with the surrounding Limpertsberg quarter, the city centre, the railway station, the suburbs of Strassen, Belair and Merl, and the southern suburbs of Bonnevoie and Hollerich.[8]
