Welcome to the website of the Taipei European School (TES). The Taipei European School is registered as a legal entity in the form of a non-profit Foundation supervised by the Department of Education within Taipei City Government. |
| |
| Our school has attracted regional and worldwide attention with its unique model for integrating German, British, French, and High School sections in terms of their curricula, administration, finance, buildings and facilities. |
| |
| The Taipei British School (TBS), Ecole Francaise de Taipei (EFT); and Deutsche Schule Taipei (DST) began around 1990 in response to the needs of expatriate families with young children, living in Taipei. The schools soon realised that there was much to be gained by joining forces to establish a combined European campus. This would allow the schools to share some facilities and resources yet teach their own respective national curricula. |
| |
| The integration model has recently taken a much bigger step to finalise the legal arrangements for a single European entity operating through a non-profit making Foundation. In 2002 the High School was opened catering for students from all three school sections. The Taipei European School now comprises four sections: |
| |
- German Section
- British Section
- French Section (including a bi-lingual programme)
- High School Section
|
| |
| Taipei European School has a total enrolment of 1,300 students from 49 countries.Taipei European School is authorised by the International Baccalaureate Organisation to deliver the Diploma programme, and is classed as an IB World School. TES is also a member of FOBISSEA (Federation of British International Schools in South East Asia and Asia) and affiliated to AEFE (Agence pour l'Enseignement Francais a l'Etranger), and BVA-ZfA (Bundesverwaltungsamt-Zentralstelle fuer das Auslandsschulwesen). |
