French International School "Victor Segalen" of Hong Kong (FIS in English, French: Lycée français international Victor-Segalen; LFI; Chinese: 香港法國國際學校) is a French international school in Hong Kong. It is the only accredited French school in HK (linked by an agreement with the Agency for French Teaching Abroad (AEFE). It has over 2,500 students in four different campuses. Since September 2014, FIS expanded its operations to a new campus in Hung Hom, Hong Kong. In September 2018, the FIS will open its new campus in Tseung Kwan O.
FIS offers two Streams, the French and the International. The French stream follows the French National Education curriculum which leads to the "diplôme national du brevet" and the French "Baccalauréat". The "Option Internationale du Baccalauréat" (OIB), which offers advanced level study in English, is also available. The International stream is based on the UK curriculum and leads to IGCSE (University of Cambridge International Examinations) in Form 5 and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in Form 6. FIS was the first international school in Hong Kong to offer an International Baccalaureate programme in 1988.[citation needed]
