IB Curriculum International Schools in Pakistan

IB Curriculum international schools in Pakistan offer one or more IB programmes (PYP, MYP, DP and, in some places, the Career-related Programme) and are concentrated in the country’s major cities such as Lahore, Islamabad and Karachi. English is the typical language of instruction while Urdu is widely taught alongside other language options; Pakistani students who need a national equivalence certificate should expect to meet Inter-Board Coordination Commission (IBCC) requirements for Urdu, Pakistan Studies and Islamiyat or to sit deficiency exams if those subjects are not included in their programme. Fees vary widely by campus and the level of provision: published data show median international-school tuitions in Pakistan in the low hundreds of thousands of PKR, with IB schools typically above the national median and some international campuses charging substantially more. Admissions are usually handled by an online application followed by age-appropriate assessments, interviews and document checks, and most schools operate an academic year that starts in late summer or early autumn; families relocating should allow several months to secure a place and to complete paperwork such as previous school records, ID and vaccination evidence.
