Northbridge International School Cambodia offers year‑round placements, and the admissions process is described as simple, personalised and fast. The school is academically non‑selective, though non‑native English‑speaking students may be required to take language tests as part of enrolment; an English as an Additional Language (EAL) programme is available to support language development. The admissions team provides support in English, Khmer and Chinese. The enrolment process begins with a school tour (on campus or virtual); Early Years applicants participate in an in‑class assessment; families meet with the school head for Primary and Secondary; and you will meet with the admissions team to discuss next steps. Applications are accepted year‑round and the admissions team will respond within 24 hours of submission. If a fit is identified, a place is offered and securing the placement requires a small deposit. Key school dates and the academic calendar are published, and tuition fees are listed with payment options. The FAQs cover the purpose of the application fee, a typical two‑week timeline to move from first contact to offer, whether a company pays the fees, the possibility of a waiting list, mid‑semester starts, and details about assessments and interviews.
There may be a waiting list for some grades; the admissions team will inform you at the time of application whether a waitlist exists and whether a place is likely to become available for your preferred start date.
Northbridge International School Cambodia is an all-through International Baccalaureate (IB) World School serving students aged 2–18 on an 8-hectare campus in Sen Sok, Phnom Penh. The school first opened in 1997 in a then-rural area of western Phnom Penh; the website describes the campus as now being a leafy oasis within a rapidly expanding part of the city and notes facilities including an Aquatics Centre, covered basketball and tennis courts, a dedicated Early Learning area and performing-arts spaces. Students follow the full IB continuum (PYP, MYP and DP) and the school connects to Nord Anglia's Global Campus for international projects and exchanges. Instruction is in English with additional language teaching (Khmer, Mandarin, Korean, French and Japanese at DP). The IB Diploma includes a CAS programme that works with local NGOs. Admissions information on the school website notes EAL support for non-native English speakers and a year-round, non-selective admissions process.
