IB Curriculum International Schools in Beirut, Lebanon

Beirut’s international schools that follow the IB curriculum include a mix of schools offering the Diploma Programme (DP) and smaller numbers authorised for the Primary Years (PYP) and Middle Years (MYP), and several schools run an IB continuum from early years to DP; programmes are commonly delivered in English with Arabic and French taught or used alongside English in many schools. Annual tuition varies a great deal across the city, with directories and school publications showing a wide spread of fees and many schools publishing prices in Lebanese pounds (LBP) or US dollars. Admissions typically follow the academic year calendar: expect to submit reports and passport documents, sit admissions assessments or attend interviews for some year groups, and pay a registration deposit when a place is offered; families relocating should contact admissions early because availability and requirements differ by school and year group.
