Collège des Frères de Jaffa
Collège des Frères de Jaffa (Hebrew: קולג' דה פרר; Arabic: مدرسة الفرير في يافا) is a French international school on Yefet Street #23 in Jaffa, a district of Tel Aviv. A part of the La Sallian educational institutions, it opened in 1882.[1] Originally it was in the Mutasarrifate of Jerusalem, Ottoman Empire, before being in the British Mandate of Palestine; currently it is in Israel.
Hosting one of six French international high school programs in Israel, it serves levels maternelle (preschool) through terminale (final year of high school),[1] with quatrième through terminale under the AEFE.[2] This affiliation ensures that students receive a high-standard French education, preparing them for the French baccalauréat and offering them opportunities to continue their studies in France or other French-speaking countries.
