The International French School (Singapore) is a private, non-profit organization affiliated with the Agency for French Education Abroad (AEFE) through an institutional agreement (établissement conventionné). Governance is provided by two bodies: the Executive Committee, which oversees operations and long-term strategy, and the Educational Committee, which represents the parent community in educational matters. Elections for the Executive Committee and participation in General Meetings are open to parent and corporate members, who may serve as representatives on the committees.
The International French School (Singapore) offers a bilingual French-English education for students aged 3 to 18. It follows the French National Curriculum, culminating in the French Baccalaureate (Bac) and the French International Baccalaureate (BFI). The school facilities include libraries, performance halls, sports pitches, and arts studios. A distinctive aspect of IFS is its vibrant community events, such as the annual Walkathon, which successfully brings together students, parents, and staff for a day of fun and fundraising. With strong ties to French-speaking communities globally, the school also facilitates cultural exchanges and partnerships for a richer educational experience.
