About Taipei European School (TES)


Taipei European School (TES) is one of a kind, being the first school to have French, German and British curricula running parallel and intertwining. Being situated in Taiwan, TES allows students to also experience and embrace a culture and history outside of Europe, truly enabling them to think globally. Taipei European School is a model for the future and a great representation of the importance of common values and collaboration in a diverse international world.

I used to go to the school. I loved it, they had many great teachers who cared about your education and was easy to make friends because everyone was so friendly. Though would love if they had sports day when I was there.

One of the best international schools in the region offers a truly diverse learning environment. Students are kind and well-mannered, and faculties are generally very helpful. My child enjoys going to school so far.

Used to go to TES for nursery and reception back in 2013-14 (British section). Have since moved to Australia, but it was a great school with friendly teachers and good facilities. It helped with my English a lot.

Simply said : the French section of this school is a joke. Apart from a few pupils ( who all have private tutors ) the general level of their students in French is dreadful, yet the tuition is skyrocketing. Moreover, everything in the organisation of the curriculum and activities is designed to make you paid the highest price as possible. Run from this school.

Taipei European School is a great IB/IGCSE School in Taipei. There are awesome curriculums and very kind pupils and Teachers. Though it would be nice if some facilities such as the Swimming Pool or more IGCSE choices to be added.

My daughter is flourishing at TES, the schools values shine through in supporting these awesome kids. The teachers are really caring and professional. There are opportunities beyond the classroom and the students have chances to develop their own unique journeys.

As a student here, I believe that there is a lot of room for improvement. For example, students here aren't able to defend themselves. Teachers here have their own opinions, and if you don't respect their opinions, you get into a load of trouble. I am most definitely speaking from experience. To be honest, I don't know many good teachers. Another problem is that all sections act like rivals, and it is driving me crazy. I mean, sure, we work differently and have our own systems, but at the end of the day, we are still one school.

Poor school management and attitude! You will see faculty coming late to school trying to pounce card at the side door and then walk slowly to main gate. Very poor example for kids but they always leave the campus on time! Also they took a lot of students photos for marketing in Facebook or website without getting consent from parents even parents has acknowledged the school that students’ photos are not allowed to published . Also very poor Chinese program so that you definitely need to have tutors to cover that.

This school focuses too much on subjects like math instead of incurring students to embrace their creativity. Student are very limited.

Being a student in TES, I believe the education system here is unbelievably bad for an overpriced school. The school indoctrinates students. the teachers force students to give them their phones for them to look through, this school somehow supports invasion of privacy. They're also teachers that do absolutely nothing in class and make me think that they don't even have a teaching license because of how bad it is. Teachers are also very biased. Students have no credibility to talk back if they think the teacher is wrong in this school because this school believes that teachers are always right. I would not recommend this school
