The International School of France, or Ermitage, is an international day and boarding school in Maisons-Laffitte, just outside Paris, France. The school was founded in 1941 by Anne-Marie Thommeret, a woman seeking to improve conditions of students during Nazi occupied France World War II. It offers an English bilingual education up to French Baccalaureate / International Baccalaureate (IB) level. This is a day school with 5- and 7-day boarding houses. In 2009, the school began offering the IB Diploma Programme. In 2018 the school was also authorised to offer the IB Middle Years Programme. The school is headed by Jim Doherty. Enrollment was 1500 students in 2023. Student ages range from 3⁠1/2⁠ (TPS) through 19 (Terminale, equivalent to Year 13 in Great Britain or grade 12 in the US). In September 2023 it was recognized in the Carfax's The Schools Index as one of the top 15 schools in Europe (excluding UK and Switzerland).
