IB Curriculum International Schools in Guangzhou, China

Guangzhou’s International Baccalaureate schools are a mixed group that includes purpose-built international campuses and international divisions inside larger Chinese schools; many offer parts of the IB continuum (PYP, MYP and/or DP) while a smaller number run the full PYP - MYP - DP sequence. Instruction is most commonly English-medium with structured Mandarin language programmes and several bilingual or dual-pathway options, and some schools combine IB with other credentials such as Cambridge or national diplomas. Fees vary widely by campus and programme level - families should expect typical annual tuition across the city to fall roughly between RMB 140,000 and RMB 330,000, with an average near RMB 178,000, and should budget additionally for registration/capital payments, transport, meals and exam charges. Admissions generally open many months ahead of an August/September intake, involve an application and assessment (and usually a non-refundable registration fee), and individual schools differ on whether they admit Chinese passport holders or only foreign passport holders, so check each school’s entry rules early in your move planning.
