Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
1. Applications for admission can be submitted at any time. Knowledge of German or English is not a prerequisite for admission. The Admission Process includes three steps: Initial Meeting, School Visit, and Enrollment Fee & Semester Fee.
Initial Meeting – A get-to-know-you meeting with the parents or guardians, either in person at the school or via an online video conference. This step is the first step of the Admission Process. It starts the process of evaluating the family and child for enrollment.
School Visit – The School Visit gives the children the opportunity to visit the school and meet the teaching staff. This step is the second step of the Admission Process.
Enrollment Fee & Semester Fee – After the signed school contract, an enrolment fee of €600 per child and an invoice for the semester fee are issued. Only after we receive both fees will your child have a reserved place at the school. Compulsory schooling in Austria begins at the age of 6. The cut-off date for a child's 6th birthday is 31 August.
The Foxhill International Bilingual School is located in Zirl, 10 km west of Innsbruck, in a natural setting. It serves children aged 2 to 14 and offers bilingual education in English and German. The curriculum combines Advanced Placement (AP) with the Austrian curriculum to support progression from Kindergarten through Primary. Class sizes are small, with a maximum of 15 students, enabling individualized support in a family‑like learning environment. The program emphasizes language development, intercultural understanding, and personal and social growth, with learning shaped by daily life and outdoor settings. Full‑day care and afternoon care are available. The school promotes cross‑age learning to strengthen social skills and provides a continuous educational pathway in a familiar setting. Extracurricular activities include a Chess Club and an Afterschool Spanish class taught by a native speaker. Seasonal programs and events supplement academics, and a Nature Playground is planned to open in Spring 2025.
