La Martinière Calcutta (informally known as LMC) comprises two single-sex private schools in Calcutta, India. The school is one of the oldest in India, having been established in 1836 in accordance with the will of the French soldier of fortune and philanthropist, Major General Claude Martin. They are both Christian schools, controlled by the protestant Church of North India and independent from the Government. While classified as day schools, both have a small number of boarders as well.
