Founded in 1995, LFT is the only Toronto school to combine the intellectually stimulating education of the French curriculum from France with the inclusive Canadian perspective and values. From PK through grade 12, our students are fully immersed in the best aspects of our two complimentary cultures. We have a co-ed enrolment of over 450 students, and a truly international student body, with nearly half of our students speaking French at home. Many of our students also speak an additional language. The intimate size of the school has allowed us to create a close-knit, integrated and respectful non-denominational community within our school. Most of our teachers, and the school’s headmaster, hail from France’s education system and many have taught internationally producing an enriched and expansive educational environment. LFT offers a quality education recognized by the best North American and international universities.
