THEIR FIRST DIPLOMA:
THE BREVET
At the end of Level II (Grade 9), our students write
a series of exams in French known as Brevet des
collèges, in subjects including French, math, history and
geography, and sciences. Marked externally by French
examiners, these are the same exams taken by their
peers at French schools around the world. Each year
when results are announced, TFS students consistently
surpass the average, even though French is not the first
language of 90% of them. The Brevet Diploma, presented
to our students by the Consul Général of France in
Toronto, not only acknowledges their exceptional
command of the French language and curriculum but
also serves as excellent preparation for their IB exams.
