International Schools in Abidjan, Ivory Coast

Abidjan’s international schools form a small, concentrated market - most are located in Cocody and the Plateau/Riviera neighbourhoods - and they offer a mix of French-national, British (Cambridge/IGCSE/A-Level), American and International Baccalaureate pathways, with several bilingual French - English options. Annual tuition is published in both West African CFA francs and US dollars depending on the school; published examples range from roughly XOF 1.6 - 3.0 million a year at some Abidjan campuses to schools that invoice in USD and publish fees in the mid-five figures. Admissions are managed by each school but commonly follow a re-enrolment and application rhythm in the spring with places confirmed ahead of the September school year; individual schools publish registration deadlines and instalment schedules. Relocating families should check the language track they need, whether the school invoices in XOF or USD, transport options and re-enrolment deadlines, and contact admissions early because demand and differing invoicing/curriculum models make planning essential.
