American Academy Larnaca

The American Academy Larnaca is a private, co-educational school in Cyprus offering a British-style curriculum for ages 2–18. The programme integrates Cambridge IGCSE in the middle years and Cambridge A Levels in the upper years, with the Apolytirion diploma fully recognised by the Cyprus Ministry of Education and Culture. From the early years, students engage in a broad, multi-disciplinary curriculum with French or German from Year 2. In Middle School (Years 4–5) they study 10 GCSE/IGCSE subjects—six compulsory and four optional; in Upper School (Years 6–7) they can take four A Levels from a broad list. A distinctive feature is the Greek School option, offering four A Levels with language support for UK, EU and US university entry, plus a Greek track for Pan-Cyprian exams. Founded in 1908, the school operates as a non-profit under the American Academy Alumni Foundation. Facilities span three campuses—Weir Hall, Memorial Hall and Centenery Building—featuring 39 classrooms, eight science laboratories, four IT laboratories, a sports centre, art and music spaces, and a library. Extracurriculars cover health and wellbeing, STEM, performing arts and community service, with clubs including Model United Nations and F1 in Schools.
