About international schools in Paphos, Cyprus

International schools in Paphos are dominated by English-medium provision following the British National Curriculum with IGCSEs and A-levels, alongside a growing local option offering the International Baccalaureate in recent years. Many schools teach English as the main language of instruction while also offering Greek and common European languages such as French and German as part of the programme. Annual tuition varies by age and provider, with kindergarten fees commonly in the low thousands of euros and secondary (pre-university) years typically costing several thousand to around ten-thousand euros a year; parents should check each school’s published fee schedule for the current figure. The main intake follows the Northern-Hemisphere school year, starting in September, though some schools accept mid-year or rolling admissions and will require standard documents such as passport, recent school reports and immunisation records during application.

FAQs for Cyprus

Which curricula are offered by international schools in Paphos?
Most established international schools in Paphos follow the English National Curriculum leading to IGCSE and GCE/A-Level qualifications, and there is now local availability of the International Baccalaureate Middle Years and Diploma Programmes. Parents should check each school’s website for the exact combination of programmes and whether it offers national recognition such as the Cypriot School Leaving Certificate (Apolytirion).
How much should families expect to pay in school fees?
Fees vary by school, age and whether the provision is day or boarding; recent published guides and some schools’ fee schedules show kindergarten and lower-primary fees commonly in the low thousands of euros per year, with upper-secondary years often several thousand to around €10,000 - €11,000 annually at some providers. Fee structures also include one-off registration or admission deposits and possible sibling discounts, so families should request the current published fee schedule and any additional costs (exams, transport, uniforms).
When is the main admissions window and what documents are normally required?
The principal intake follows the Northern-Hemisphere school calendar with the new year starting in September, although many schools accept applications and occasional mid-year entry throughout the year. Typical application requirements are a completed application form, the child’s passport and birth certificate, recent school reports or transcripts, immunisation/health records and proof of residence or visa status; some schools also ask older applicants for assessment or interview.
What languages are used in class and which additional languages are taught?
The language of instruction in Paphos international schools is predominantly English, with Greek taught as either a language subject or as part of local-languages provision; schools commonly offer additional European languages such as French and German. Individual schools publish subject lists showing which modern languages and levels (first language, second language or foreign language) they provide, so parents should review those lists if continuity in a particular language is important.
What ages and external exams should parents expect for school leavers?
International schools in Paphos typically cover early years through to age 17 - 18, with students in Years 10 - 11 preparing for IGCSE/GCSE examinations and older students taking GCE/A-Level or the IB Diploma depending on the school. Graduates holding A-Levels, IB Diplomas or recognised national leaving certificates normally use those qualifications for university applications in the UK, Europe and elsewhere, but families should confirm each school’s exam boards and university guidance services.
