Which Paris private schools take TEFA?
2 of the 3 schools on this page are on the state’s official TEFA list. They are marked with a green check and listed first. Schools marked “TEFA school” here appear on the participating-school list the program publishes on its toolkit page (file updated September 28, 2026, with 2,758 entries; about 1,600 of them are pre-K and child-care centres, which we do not add as new listings). We match by school name and city, or by phone or street where the names differ, or by a name that appears only once in the state. A school without the mark may have joined since, so check the official Vendor Finder too.
Will TEFA cover the whole tuition bill?
Sometimes, but do not count on it. TEFA pays $10,474 per private school student for 2026-27, and schools set their own prices. Ask each school for tuition plus fees, then use the calculator on this page to see what is left for you to pay.
