Our mission is to provide a high quality educational program within the framework of multilingual education. We help students to develop self-confidence, respect for others, curiosity and openness to different cultures. Most importantly, we strive to inspire a desire to learn. 

In Tokyo, the LFI Tokyo assures continuity in public educational services for French expatriate children while also contributing to the promotion of French language and culture abroad, particularly by welcoming students of Japanese and many other nationalities.

The LFI Tokyo offers a program of instruction in accordance with the French curriculum, and includes significant linguistic and cultural components in relation to the Japanese context. Diplomas and qualifications awarded by the school are identical to those conferred by institutions in France.

The LFI Tokyo currently accommodates nearly 1555 francophone pupils of French or other nationalities. Our campus houses the primary school (with students beginning petite section at age three) and accommodates students through upper-secondary and terminale (age 18). Most courses are conducted in French, but foreign-language instruction (in Japanese, English, German, and Spanish) also constitutes an important part of the curriculum. French/English bilingual classes have been created in the primary school, while a bilingual Section européenne for Social Studies is on offer in lower secondary. Finally, the International French Baccalaureate is available to Japanese-speaking and English-speaking students (opened in september 2017) in the upper secondary school.
