About international schools in Lithuania

IB international schools in Lithuania are concentrated in the larger cities (particularly Vilnius, Kaunas and Klaipėda) and offer a mix of IB programmes from the Primary Years and Middle Years up to the Diploma Programme, so families can find full PYP - DP pathways as well as schools that offer only the DP. Instruction in the private international schools is commonly in English, but Lithuanian language and national-curriculum elements are required across the system and some municipal schools run English-medium IB Diploma classes as well. Tuition varies widely: most English-medium international schools in Vilnius sit in the mid-to-high range for the country, while a few schools charge significantly more when one-off capital or admission fees are included. The school year follows the national calendar (usually starting 1 September) and the main intake is for the August/September term, although many international schools accept mid-year transfers subject to places and assessments, so families should contact admissions several months before an expected move.

FAQs for Lithuania

Which IB programmes are commonly available in Lithuanian international schools?
You will find the Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP) and the Diploma Programme (DP) in Lithuania, though not every school offers every programme; some schools provide only the DP for upper secondary students while others provide a seamless PYP - MYP - DP progression. Check each school’s IB authorisation status to confirm which programme(s) are authorised on site.
What is the language of instruction and how is Lithuanian language covered?
Many international schools teach primarily in English, particularly private international providers, but Lithuanian language and culture are integrated into timetables across licensed schools and some public schools offer English-medium IB classes. Expect Lithuanian-language lessons to be part of the curriculum for residents and for schools to offer additional language support for non-native speakers.
How much should we budget for tuition and extra charges?
Tuition levels vary significantly between schools; in Vilnius most international-school tuitions commonly fall in the mid range for the city, with many schools charging in the several- thousands of euros per year and examples clustering roughly in the €8,000 - €15,000 band, while a small number of schools add separate one-off admission, capital or registration fees that raise the total cost. Always request the full fee schedule (tuition, enrolment deposit, capital/construction fees, exam and activity charges) before committing, because headline tuition figures frequently exclude these extras.
When should we apply and what does the admissions process usually involve?
The main intake follows the national school calendar with the academic year starting around 1 September, so families relocating for the new school year should begin enquiries and applications several months earlier; many international schools also run rolling admissions and accept mid-year transfers if there is space. Admissions typically require an application form, previous school records, an English placement assessment and sometimes an interview, and oversubscribed year groups may have waiting lists.
How does the IB Diploma fit with Lithuanian university entry and international options?
The IB Diploma is widely recognised by universities in Lithuania and internationally; holders of the DP typically meet entry requirements for Lithuanian higher education provided they also satisfy any specific subject prerequisites set by a university. Families should check the admissions rules of particular Lithuanian universities if they plan local entry, and DP students aiming abroad should confirm country- or university-specific recognition and any additional application requirements.
