About international schools in Warsaw, Poland

British-curriculum international schools in Warsaw teach in English and are built around the English National Curriculum or Cambridge syllabuses, normally leading to IGCSEs at 14 - 16 and then either A-levels or the International Baccalaureate in the final two years. These schools routinely offer Polish lessons alongside modern foreign languages such as French, German or Spanish, and they provide English-language support for pupils joining with limited English. Annual tuition varies by age and provider but many British schools in Warsaw publish fees in the range of roughly PLN 50,000 to PLN 125,000 per year, with extra charges for enrolment, initial assessments, language support and some activities. The main intake is for the September term; applications open and offers are typically processed in the months beforehand, and popular year groups often operate waiting lists and entry assessments, so families relocating should start enquiries several months before arrival.

FAQs for Poland

What does a 'British curriculum' school in Warsaw usually teach and what qualifications do students take?
A British-curriculum school generally follows the English National Curriculum or Cambridge frameworks through primary and lower secondary, with pupils sitting internationally recognised IGCSE (or GCSE) examinations at about age 16. After IGCSE many schools offer either A-levels or the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme for ages 16 - 18, so families should check which pathway each school offers and how that matches their university plans.
Is instruction in English and will my child learn Polish?
Instruction is typically in English for day-to-day learning, and schools also provide Polish lessons either as a subject for all pupils or as separate mother-tongue and beginner tracks. Most British schools in Warsaw publish modern language options such as French, German and Spanish alongside Polish, and they offer English as an Additional Language (EAL) support for newcomers.
How much should we budget for British international school fees in Warsaw?
Annual tuition depends on the year group and the school; published fee schedules for leading British schools in Warsaw show figures that commonly start in the tens of thousands of zloty for Early Years and rise for older pupils, with upper-secondary fees often exceeding PLN 100,000. In addition to tuition, expect one-off enrolment or assessment charges, refundable deposits, costs for targeted language or learning support, exam entry fees and optional extracurricular or transport charges.
When should we apply and what does the admissions process involve?
The principal intake is the September term, so families moving to Warsaw should begin enquiries and submit applications several months in advance; many schools run their main application windows in the autumn and winter before the next school year and issue offers in the spring. Admissions commonly include an online application, provision of school records, an English language assessment or interview and, for some year groups, standardised cognitive testing or subject checks; popular year groups may have waiting lists.
What practical things should relocating parents check when comparing British schools in Warsaw?
Look beyond brochure claims: confirm the exact curriculum pathway (IGCSE → A-levels or IBDP), the school’s approach to English language intake and Polish provision, published class sizes, pastoral support and SEN/EAL services, and the full fee schedule including extras. Also check term dates, transport options and the admissions timetable so you can line up paperwork (residency/registration questions often affect timing) and minimise the chance of losing an available place.
