Ecole Belge de Kigali

Located in Kigali, the Belgian School of Kigali is a private international school with a history dating back to 1965. It was created by Belgian cooperation and is now managed by a Rwandan ASBL, with primary funding coming from tuition paid by families. The school serves a multicultural student body from kindergarten through grade 6. All sections follow the programs of the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles, the French Community of Belgium, and Belgian diplomas are awarded and recognized by the Federation, providing graduates with access to universities around the world. The campus emphasizes developing the student's autonomy and places the learner at the center of the learning process, encouraging active participation. The school maintains historical ties with Belgium and collaborates with Rwandan education institutions to support moral, physical, intellectual, and civic education. This combination provides an international, certificate-backed pathway within a small, community-focused setting. Parents appreciate a stable, long-standing Belgian educational tradition.
