IFS has been welcoming students for over 50 years. Our story begins with a passion to educate a small group of French expatriates arriving in Singapore and stretches to today, where we’ve grown into a vibrant and multicultural international school. Our students now come from all across the world, learning from each other every day.

The exceptional quality of our teaching faculty creates a learning environment in which each teacher builds meaningful connections with each student and fosters their participation, involvement and passion for learning. Your child’s success in their academic, social and personal development is at the centre of our teaching philosophy.

It takes an active community to equip and prepare our students to excel in an ever-changing and uncertain world. At IFS, we are very grateful to have an engaged parent community whose trust we have earned and who believes in the school. Parent participation in steering groups, committees, the Board and our Groupe Humanitaire, to name just a few, are an essential part of the school’s culture and learning environment.

We endeavour to empower our students through our multilingual French curriculum to reach their full potential. Always willing to try and try again, students at IFS are encouraged to participate in all areas of learning, including sports and the arts, all within an academic structure focused on language acquisition. We seek to inspire our students to enjoy learning by doing, build self-confidence, motivated and driven to succeed. Individuals adaptable to an ever-changing globalised world.

What makes IFS so distinctive is our membership to a unique global network of schools through the Agence pour l’Enseignement Français à l’Etranger (AEFE). Our association with the AEFE provides us with an unmatched opportunity to offer globally mobile families an enriching, hassle-free, transferable French education worldwide. Students can also benefit from the ADN-AEFE exchange programmes and a growing number of peer-to-peer resources through the AGORA.

At IFS we are committed to making sure every student not only feels at home in a multicultural environment but are given the opportunities and support they need to reach their full potential. Our vision and mission are shaped by our belief that students excel when they are enjoying themselves, as well as when they are helping and learning from each other. At IFS we provide:

  • A multilingual education in a multicultural international environment

We’ve been so happy with IFS for kids over the years! The bilingual program is truly top-notch, and the teaching standards are incredibly high. We love that the school focuses on learning without screens in primary, which makes a big difference in their development. It’s been an amazing experience watching our children thrive in such a supportive and enriching environment. Highly recommend this school to anyone looking for quality education!

The French school in Singapore from pre-school to high school.A sprawling campus with many top notch facilities. There is a bilingual curriculum from pre-school onward that is run in coordination with Cambridge University.The security staff is the nicest in town and there is even a cafe for parents to socialize and wait for the kids.The bus service is large and covers most of the island.

The Lyçée Français de Singapore, commonly known as the Singapore French School and/or LFS is a pre-K through 12 school that is open to native French speakers from all over the world. It has a world-class campus and strictly adheres to the French program as defined by the French Ministry of Education. It also offers advanced English for bilingual students. Graduates of LFS have some of the highest marks of all french schools around the world. They also gain access to the most elite post secondary schools. Tuition at the Singapore French School, considered expensive compared to other french schools, is nonetheless far less expensive than nearly all other international schools in Singapore. This school has excellent facilities, personnel, community, and most importantly, students.
