IB Curriculum International Schools in Hungary

Families looking at IB international schools in Hungary will mostly find them concentrated in Budapest and operating either the full IB continuum (PYP - MYP - DP) or the Diploma Programme for older students; instruction is commonly English, with a number of schools offering Hungarian - English bilingual streams and additional modern languages. Annual tuition at anglophone international schools in Budapest typically sits in the low thousands to low tens of thousands of euros, rising with age and often with separate capital or enrolment fees, so compare “all-in” costs carefully. The main intake follows the Northern-Hemisphere school year (August/September) and many schools also accept mid-year places or run rolling admissions, so begin enquiries 6 - 12 months before your preferred start date and have passport, recent school reports (with translations if needed) and vaccination records ready. If you are open to local schooling, state schools are largely free for residents but teach in Hungarian, which makes international schools the usual choice for families needing English-medium provision.
