British Curriculum International Schools in Philippines

British-curriculum international schools in the Philippines typically deliver an adapted English National Curriculum through primary years and the Cambridge IGCSEs, with many schools continuing to A-levels or offering the IB Diploma as an alternative, taught largely in English to an international intake. Parents will commonly find English as the language of instruction while Filipino (and sometimes Filipino history/civics) is taught to meet national requirements and support local students’ language development. Annual tuition in Metro Manila varies widely by school and year group but commonly runs from the mid-hundreds of thousands of pesos up to around PHP 1.5 - 1.8 million at the high end, with some schools publishing fees in a mix of pesos and foreign currency. Admissions follow the Philippine school calendar influences (many international schools align intake with the June/August academic year and use age cut-offs and age-appropriate assessments), and schools normally assess academic level and English proficiency as part of their enrolment process. Families relocating should budget for application/entrance deposits, possible dual-currency payments, and extra costs such as learning-support or EAL programmes, exam and activity fees, and transport or lunch services when comparing offers.
