The International French School (Singapore) (IFS) offers two educational routes: French-English bilingual learning and an English International Stream (EIS). Students can work towards internationally recognised qualifications, including the French Baccalaureate and IGCSEs. Children who are new to French can benefit from dedicated language support, helping them build their skills and confidence while settling into school life.
As a non-profit school, IFS reinvests its resources into education, facilities and teaching. Its approach supports students’ academic progress, creativity and physical development, while encouraging them to become open-minded, globally aware members of a diverse international community.
