lastupdate=October 26 2007 The Toronto French School (TFS), founded in 1962 , is an independent, bilingual, co-educational, non-denominational school in
Toronto . Elizabeth II, as Queen of Canada, is the royal patron of the school.Students are taught mainly in French from pre-kindergarten through Grade 10. From Grade 11 on, the students have a choice of doing their courses in English or French. The school is accredited by the Ministry of Education of France through Grade 10 and by the Ministry of Education of Ontario throughout its entire range. Students are offered an expanded choice of courses in English in high school, though many courses are offered in French during the high school years as well. Students may study Latin, Spanish,German or Ancient Greek as well. All students study French throughout all of their years at the school. TFS requires its students to enrol for the International Baccalaureate Diploma (an externally moderated curriculum offered by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO)). Examinations are taken in May of students' graduating year. The school covers the normal Ontario Grades 6, 7 and 8 curricula in two years (Grades 6 and 7), thereby allowing students to start high school (Grade 9) at the age of Grade 8 students. Like other students in Ontario, TFS students graduate in 19 years, as the high school extends over five years, the last two of which are the IB years.
