IB Curriculum International Schools in Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan is home to a small but established group of IB World Schools that commonly offer the Primary Years (PYP), Middle Years (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP), and in some cases the Career-related Programme; many operate as bilingual or trilingual schools where English is the main language of instruction alongside Kazakh and/or Russian. Several IB schools in the country intentionally blend IB programmes with elements of the Kazakhstan national curriculum or hold national recognition for specific grades, so parents should check how a school aligns with state requirements. Annual tuition varies by city and provider but is typically in the mid-thousands of US dollars, with some schools charging over USD 10,000 a year; additional one-off enrolment or assessment fees are common. Admissions usually follow either annual intake points or rolling enrolment, and DP entry is organised around the two-year programme start, so families relocating should allow time for language assessments, transfer of records and any visa or residency paperwork.
