International Curriculum International Schools in Kenya

International-curriculum schools in Kenya are concentrated around Nairobi and Mombasa and serve a mix of expatriate and Kenyan families, so they typically offer curricula designed for international progression rather than the national system. British (Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level), International Baccalaureate and US-style High School programmes are commonly available, with a smaller number of German, French and other national-curriculum schools also operating in the market. English is the usual language of instruction while Kiswahili and modern foreign languages (French, Spanish, German, etc.) are widely taught alongside language-support classes where needed. Annual tuition varies a lot by school, location and year group, but typical published fees for Nairobi schools sit in the mid-to-high hundreds of thousands of Kenyan shillings per year, with a broad band from more modest day-school fees to significantly higher fees for premium campuses; expect additional costs for enrolment, transport, uniforms and exam entries. Admissions follow the school calendar (many schools start the academic year in August/September and hold their largest intakes then), and offers commonly require an application, assessment, registration payment and sometimes a deposit or waiting list placement, so early contact is advisable when relocating.
