The school includes a preschool, a comprehensive school, a high school and a private playschool operated by the Friends of the French School Association, which operates in the same building.[1][2]

History

It was founded by Frenchwoman Catherine Servé in 1938.[5] Originally just a kindergarten, it expanded into a primary school in 1947.[5]

The school's architecture was worked on by Finnish architect Aino Kallio-Ericsson in 1956.[6]

It has been run by the Finnish state since 1977, using the Finnish school system, with the Republic of France paying wages of 7-10 teachers. Students graduating there receive the Finnish matriculation examination and French government give to students the diplomas of equal value of French baccalauréat.[7]
