About international schools in Paphos, Cyprus

Paphos is served by a small group of English-medium private and international schools that most commonly deliver the British National Curriculum (leading to IGCSE/GCSE and A-levels) and, increasingly, International Baccalaureate programmes as an alternative pathway. Instruction is usually in English; Modern Greek is taught across schools and is often a compulsory subject for Cypriot or Greek nationals, while other modern languages such as French or German are commonly offered. Tuition levels vary with age and programme, but private and international school fees in Cyprus range widely - from a few thousand euros a year in some cases up to mid-five figures for older year groups or specialised programmes - so expect nursery and primary fees to be substantially lower than senior-school or IB/A-level provision. Schools in Paphos follow the island’s academic rhythm (most schools publish calendars that centre on a September start) and operate an enquiry + assessment + interview admissions process with deposits and limited places, so begin enquiries several months before you need an offer.

FAQs for Cyprus

What curricula will my child find in Paphos international schools?
The most common route in Paphos is the British National Curriculum, with schools delivering Key Stages, IGCSE/GCSE and A-levels; some schools also offer the International Baccalaureate programmes (MYP and/or Diploma) as an alternative. Each school publishes the exact subjects and examined qualifications it offers, so check a school’s curriculum pages to confirm which years and final qualifications match your child’s needs.
How much should we budget for tuition and extra costs?
Tuition varies by school, year group and programme; across Cyprus published private school fees span from a few thousand euros a year to much higher sums for upper secondary or specialised international provision. In addition to core tuition expect to budget for registration or enrolment deposits, capital levies or development fees, school uniform, exam fees and optional extras such as school transport, wrap-around care and extracurricular activities.
When should we start the admissions process and what does it usually involve?
Begin enquiries several months before you want a place because international and private schools commonly have limited spaces and waitlists. Typical steps are an initial enquiry, submission of records and IDs (translations sometimes required), a placement or entrance test and an interview, followed by an offer that is often secured with a deposit; exact timelines and assessment dates are set by each school.
What language support and language requirements can we expect?
English is the language of instruction in international schools, but schools also teach Modern Greek - often as a compulsory subject for Cypriot or Greek nationals - and offer other modern languages such as French or German. Many schools provide English-as-an-additional-language (EAL) support or screening at entry; if your child needs learning-support or language therapy, bring current reports to the admissions meeting so the school can assess provision.
What should we prioritise when visiting a school in Paphos?
Look for curriculum and qualification matches to your family’s long-term plans, clear information about how the school supports English learners and children with additional needs, and evidence of pastoral care and day-to-day routines such as class sizes, supervision and transport. Also ask for the school calendar, written fee illustration (what the tuition covers and what it doesn’t) and recent school policies on safeguarding, behaviour and assessment so you can compare objectively before you enrol.
