About international schools in Greece

International-curriculum international schools in Greece are concentrated around Athens and Thessaloniki and serve a mix of expatriate, returnee and local families by offering pathways that sit alongside - but separate from - the Greek national system. The common offerings are the International Baccalaureate (PYP/MYP/DP), British IGCSE/A-level routes and American-style high-school programmes, with a smaller number of French, German or bilingual Greek - international tracks; English is the dominant language of instruction while Modern Greek and other European languages are widely taught. Fees vary widely by school and location: many established international schools in and around Athens publish annual tuition in the roughly €8,000 - €16,000 band, while some smaller or specialised schools publish lower or higher figures and additional charges such as registration, transport or activity fees are common. Admissions generally run on a rolling basis but popular year groups fill early; expect schools to require an application form, recent school reports, an assessment or interview and evidence of English language ability before enrolment is finalised.

FAQs for Greece

Which international curricula are available in Greece and how do they differ?
The main international curricula offered are the International Baccalaureate (PYP/MYP/DP), the British curriculum leading to IGCSEs and A-levels, and American high-school programmes (sometimes with AP options); a smaller number of schools follow French or German systems or offer bilingual tracks that combine Greek study with an international syllabus. The IB is structured as a continuous programme from primary to diploma with an emphasis on inquiry and global perspectives, British schools typically follow staged GCSE/IGCSE and A-level examinations, and American programmes generally lead to a high-school diploma with optional AP coursework.
What language support and use of Greek should we expect?
Most international schools in Greece teach primarily through English but include Modern Greek in the curriculum either as a language subject or as part of a bilingual pathway; some schools also offer French or German streams or additional language instruction. Families should check each school’s policy on Greek lessons and on support for non-Greek speakers, since provision for mother-tongue tuition, Greek as an additional language and language learning support varies between schools.
How much do international schools in Greece cost and what extras should we budget for?
Published annual tuition varies considerably; many Athens schools list fees in the mid-four-figure to low-five-figure euro range per year (roughly €8,000 - €16,000 at a number of established schools), while smaller or specialist schools may publish lower rates and some long-standing institutions publish higher rates. In addition to tuition expect one-off registration or entrance fees, charges for transport, school meals, uniforms, exams and optional activities or individual learning support, all of which can add materially to the total annual cost.
When should we apply and what does the admissions process usually involve?
Many international schools operate rolling admissions but popular entry years fill months before the September start, so early contact and submission of application paperwork are advisable. Typical requirements include an application form, recent school reports, proof of identity/residency, an admissions interview or assessment (sometimes via video if you are relocating) and evidence of sufficient English; schools will explain any age-specific tests or placement assessments.
Will international qualifications from Greece be recognised by universities?
Yes - qualifications commonly awarded by international schools in Greece, such as the IB Diploma, UK A-levels and accredited American diplomas (often with AP courses), are widely accepted by universities in the UK, Europe and North America, though specific entry requirements vary by country and degree programme. Families should confirm entry requirements for the universities and courses their children hope to apply to, and check with the school whether it provides university-counselling and the particular examinations or subject combinations required by those institutions.
