Lyc'ee Francais International French International School (Tseung Kwan O Campus)

The Tseung Kwan O Campus is located at 28 Tong Yin Street, Tseung Kwan O, in the eastern part of Hong Kong. The area is a modern residential and educational hub with easy access via the MTR Tseung Kwan O Line and nearby bus routes. The campus is close to family-friendly neighbourhoods such as Lohas Park and Clear Water Bay, making it convenient for commuting families. The area also offers green open spaces and community facilities within walking distance.

The Tseung Kwan O Campus accommodates students from Early Years (Nursery / Moyenne Section) through Primary and Lower Secondary. Both the French Stream (PS–3ème) and the International Stream (Nursery–Year 6) operate here, providing continuity from early childhood through lower secondary education before progression to the Blue Pool Road Campus.

The school is co-educational and serves as a day school with no boarding facilities.

The school provides limited support for students with mild to moderate learning differences. Assistance is coordinated through the Student Services team, which works with teachers and external specialists when necessary. It is not a specialist SEN school, and admission depends on the school’s ability to meet a child’s specific learning needs.

The school has affiliation with France via the French national curriculum stream and is linked with the French education system.

The school does not have a religious affiliation.

The school day begins in the morning (around 8:00 a.m.) and ends between 2:15 p.m. for Primary and 4:00 p.m. for Lower Secondary students. Lunch and short recesses are built into the timetable, varying slightly between year groups. Timetables are structured to balance classroom learning with physical education and extracurricular activities.

A school bus service operates for students across Hong Kong, including pick-ups from nearby districts. Buses depart approximately 10–15 minutes after classes end, ensuring safe and timely transport. The service is managed by external transport providers, with route and fare details available through the school’s website.

The Tseung Kwan O Campus offers both the French Stream and the International Stream, serving students from Nursery to Lower Secondary.
In the French Stream, students follow the French national curriculum, approved by the Agence pour l’Enseignement Français à l’Étranger (AEFE). This curriculum emphasizes literacy, numeracy, and cross-disciplinary learning, preparing students for the French national qualifications pathway leading to the Brevet des Collèges.

In the International Stream, Early Years pupils follow the International Early Years Curriculum (IEYC), while Primary students follow the International Primary Curriculum (IPC). Both frameworks are inquiry-based and internationally recognised, focusing on global awareness and thematic learning.
Students in Lower Secondary continue with a curriculum aligned with the English National Curriculum, integrating core subjects such as English, Mathematics, Science, Humanities, and Languages, with opportunities for creative and physical education.

The TKO campus thus provides a bilingual, international education that allows seamless progression to the Blue Pool Road Campus for upper secondary and IB Diploma studies.

Social and emotional development at the Tseung Kwan O Campus is supported through the school’s Student Services and Health Services teams, which serve all campuses. These teams collaborate with teachers to encourage positive relationships, self-management, and responsible behaviour among students. The school integrates topics such as health, citizenship, and anti-bullying awareness into lessons and assemblies. SEL is promoted through daily classroom routines and co-curricular activities that build teamwork and respect.

The school provides limited support for students with mild to moderate learning differences. The Student Services team works with classroom teachers to identify and support students who need additional help. Where necessary, families are encouraged to seek external specialists such as psychologists, speech therapists, or occupational therapists. The school is not a specialist SEN institution, and admission depends on the school’s capacity to meet individual needs.

The school does not publicly disclose information regarding English as an Additional Language (EAL) support for the International Stream.

Student wellbeing is supported by a Health Services team, which includes qualified nurses and counsellors available across campuses. Students can seek confidential guidance for academic or personal issues, and wellbeing education is integrated into school activities and class discussions. The school also promotes healthy lifestyles through topics on nutrition, sleep, and exercise.

Safeguarding is coordinated by the school’s Student Services and Health Services teams, which ensure that all campuses follow clear procedures for child protection and safety. Each campus has designated staff responsible for monitoring attendance, health, and welfare. The school maintains strict communication channels for staff and parents to report concerns and emphasises student safety as a shared responsibility.

1. Application Submission
Parents begin by completing the online application form for either the French or International Stream. Supporting documents such as a copy of the child’s passport, Hong Kong visa, recent school reports, and a passport-sized photo must be uploaded. A non-refundable application fee of HKD 2,200 is required at this stage.

2. Assessment and Review
Once received, applications are reviewed by the Admissions Team. Children may be invited for an assessment or interview, depending on the stream and year group. This process evaluates academic readiness and language proficiency where relevant.

3. Offer of Admission
Successful applicants receive an offer via email. To confirm the place, families must pay a non-refundable deposit of HKD 25,000 and hold either a Corporate Debenture (HKD 250,000) or Private Debenture (HKD 120,000), refundable at nominal value minus an administrative fee.

4. Enrolment and Orientation
Once payment is complete, parents receive enrolment details, uniform and transport information, and invitations to orientation sessions organised by the school and the FIS Community Association (FISCA) for new families.

The Tseung Kwan O Campus does not offer scholarships as it caters to Early Years, Primary, and Lower Secondary students. Scholarships are available only at the Blue Pool Road Campus for senior secondary students in the International Stream through the IB Academic Excellence Scholarship, which covers partial or full tuition for the two-year IB Diploma Programme.

The school operates a waiting-pool system for both streams when no immediate places are available. Students who meet the admissions criteria are placed in the pool, and offers are made as spaces open. Priority is given to applicants with siblings enrolled at the school, corporate debenture nominees, and French nationals in the French Stream. The school does not disclose rankings within the waiting pool.
