About international schools in Vietnam

Australian-curriculum international schools in Vietnam typically deliver either the Australian national curriculum or an Australian state curriculum (commonly Western Australian programmes) in English, while also teaching Vietnamese language and cultural studies and, at some campuses, running bilingual or integrated programmes. These schools follow Australian year levels and subject frameworks but may pair them with Vietnamese Ministry content or offer alternative senior pathways, so the exact credential on leaving (state certificate, IB, etc.) varies by campus. Published fee schedules show a wide spread depending on location and programme type, with younger years commonly billed at lower annual tuition and senior secondary years charged at higher rates. Relocating families should expect English as the working language in most classrooms, admissions to include age/grade verification and literacy/English checks, and separate published charges for tuition, enrolment and optional services such as meals or school bus provision.

FAQs for Vietnam

How is the Australian Curriculum delivered in Vietnam and how does it compare with other international curricula?
Schools either follow the Australian Curriculum (ACARA) or adopt a specific Australian state curriculum framework, which sets year-by-year subject content and achievement standards similar to other national curricula. Delivery is usually in English with specialist subjects and assessment modelled on Australian practice, but some campuses blend in Vietnamese national content or offer international alternatives such as IB for senior years. This means learning sequences and reporting are broadly Australian in style, even when schools operate hybrid or bilingual programmes.
What languages are used, and how much Vietnamese will my child study?
English is the primary language of instruction in the Australian-curriculum programmes, and Vietnamese is taught as a subject and cultural programme at most campuses; some schools offer a bilingual track where Vietnamese is used for additional subjects. The level of Vietnamese instruction varies by school and by programme (international versus integrated/bilingual), so check each school’s published curriculum and language policy to see how many lessons a week and whether Vietnamese is offered at mother-tongue or foreign-language level.
How much do Australian-curriculum international schools in Vietnam cost?
Fees vary widely by city, campus, age and whether the programme is fully international or an integrated bilingual pathway; published system-level summaries for recent academic years show primary tuition commonly in the low-to-mid hundreds of millions of VND per year with senior secondary years generally higher. Many schools list separate charges for one-off entry or facilities fees and optional services such as meals and transportation, so compare the full published fee schedule rather than headline tuition alone.
When can I apply and what admissions checks should I expect?
Intakes differ by school but many accept applications on a rolling basis for early years and hold limited annual intakes for older years; places become harder to find at Years 10 - 12. Admissions commonly require proof of age and prior schooling, an English-language assessment or interview, and documentary evidence (passports, previous school reports, vaccination records); some schools also use standardised placement tests or AEAS-style checks to map international ages to Australian year levels.
What should I check when comparing Australian-curriculum schools in Vietnam?
Ask which Australian curriculum or state authority the school follows and what senior qualification it offers, whether teacher registration and international accreditations are in place, how Vietnamese language and local curriculum requirements are handled, and what the published fee schedule covers. Also review support for English learners and special educational needs, class sizes, extra costs for exams or excursions, and the school’s pathway descriptions for university or vocational options so you can compare likely outcomes and total annual cost.
