British Curriculum International Schools in Costa Rica

British-curriculum international schools in Costa Rica are a small group of mostly English-medium or bilingual schools that typically offer Cambridge programmes (Primary/IGCSE) and, in several cases, combine those with the IB Diploma for the final two years. Instruction is usually in English with Spanish taught throughout the school and many institutions offering explicit English - Spanish bilingual pathways; some schools add a third language option. Published annual costs at established international schools in the greater San José and Guanacaste areas commonly fall in a broad mid-four-figure to mid-five-figure US dollar band once enrolment, materials and transport are included, although fees vary markedly by school and by age. Admissions practice differs by provider: some schools publish rolling enrolment and accept applications year-round while others follow either the Costa Rican national calendar (roughly February - December) or an international (August - June) academic year, so families should check each school’s calendar and apply several months before the intended start date.
