\"\"Bonjour,<\/p>

A very warm welcome to LIFT (Lyc\u00e9e International de Taipei)!<\/p>

LIFT was just created in 2022, behind a group of parents from the French speaking community with more than 3 years of volunteer work of preparation, as there is a strong need to address the increasing demand of the French, French-speaking and French-lovers communities, also complementary to current offer, in the meanwhile open to Taiwanese community.<\/p>

LIFT is rooted by below values & beliefs:<\/p>

We create a trilingual, culturally diverse learning environment. In pursuing pedagogical excellence, we respect the individual differences of each student and aim to develop the full potential of each student to become a global citizen and socially engaged change agent.<\/p>

With a transparent, inclusive and participatory form of governance:<\/p>

Today LIFT Board is composed of 9 members, with representatives of parents, the Head of\u00a0 School and French business community, to support and define the long-term development roadmap of LIFT in Taiwan. Operational management is entrusted to our passionate teaching & administration team under the leadership of the Head of School.<\/p>

An affordable establishment as a non for profit organization, we don\u2019t have private investment, all capital and operational expenditures are financed by its own revenues, mainly tuition, sponsorship & donations, any potential profit will be reinvested into LIFT development. We put the development of LIFT as the best interest.<\/p>

I take this opportunity to reassure you that LIFT has obtained strong support from many important stakeholders, including BFT, Taipei City Government, Education Bureau, Liu Gong High Establishment, and many business & French communities to make our future success!<\/p>

There is a Chinese saying: \u5341\u5e74\u6a39\u6728\u3001\u767e\u5e74\u6a39\u4eba
It takes 10 years to grow a tree, but a hundred years to rear people.<\/p>

This shows education is a long-term commitment, and continuous pursuit of excellence.<\/p>

Our mission is to make our children the change agents of the future to bring a big impact to our society.<\/p>

In this very meaningful journey, thank you for your support and welcome to be part of us!<\/p>

Welcome to the Lyc\u00e9e International Fran\u00e7ais de Taipei.<\/span><\/p>

LIFT is a school in full development, driven by a simple ambition: to offer every student a quality education\u2014rigorous and attentive to each individual\u2014within a human-scale setting. As the school grows, our goal is to continue building its structure while preserving the closeness that allows us to truly know our students, support their progress, and maintain a strong bond with families.<\/span><\/p>

Our school also has a distinctive feature: it is integrated within a Taiwanese campus. Our students interact daily with Taiwanese students, share certain spaces, and grow up in an environment where multiple languages and cultures naturally meet. This closeness gives a very concrete dimension to the international openness we aim to foster.<\/span><\/p>

LIFT also places great importance on language learning, offering a rich and high-quality language curriculum. In a setting like Taipei, this openness is a real asset for students, allowing them to develop strong language and intercultural skills from an early age.<\/span><\/p>

Being a French school in Taiwan therefore means both upholding the curriculum, methods, and values of French education, while also drawing enrichment from our host country. This encounter between different educational traditions is, in my view, a genuine opportunity for our students.<\/span><\/p>

I also want LIFT to remain a school where everyone finds their place, within a clear, calm, and caring environment. Academic rigor, independence, respect for others, and the joy of learning should all be able to progress together.<\/span><\/p>

Finally, I strongly believe in co-education. School and families share a common goal, while each playing their own role. It is through trust, dialogue, and mutual respect that we can best support our students and continue building LIFT’s development together.<\/span><\/p>

I am very pleased to take part in this new chapter in the school’s history and to contribute, alongside the entire school community, to shaping the next steps of its journey.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
