To help foreign students gain confidence in the Canadian educational system, TFIS initially offers the fee structures as a public school rather than those of a private institution. International students in elementary and high school pay fees to public schools that range from about CAD 8,000 to CAD 14,000 per year (only tuition fees). For your child to participate in extracurricular activities like sports teams or school field trips, schools may charge a small fee. Many high school students pack their lunches, but some institutions have cafeterias or hot lunch programmes where your child can get food.
