Where these came from

4 of the 6 come from auslandsschulwesen.de. The others come from state.gov and aefe.gouv.fr. Germany's Central Agency for Schools Abroad (ZfA) publishes this directory of officially recognised German schools abroad, naming the languages each school teaches in. The US State Department's Office of Overseas Schools publishes fact sheets on the schools it assists abroad, independent schools whose primary language of instruction is English. The AEFE, the French government agency for French schools abroad, publishes this list of schools accredited to teach the French national curriculum in French.

All 6 sit on an official list, published by a body with nothing to sell.
