About international schools in Vietnam

International Curriculum international schools in Vietnam are schools that deliver externally recognised programmes such as the International Baccalaureate, British (English National/IGCSE/A-level) and US-style or other national curricula in an English-medium environment, with many campuses concentrated in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. Parents will commonly find English as the primary language of instruction alongside Vietnamese language lessons and a growing number of bilingual options; some schools also offer additional modern-language and mother-tongue support. Annual tuition for fully international K - 12 programmes in the two largest cities varies widely depending on curriculum and campus, and families should budget for extra one-off enrolment or development levies plus transport, meals and exam fees. Admissions follow an academic year that most international schools set around August - June; spaces in popular year groups can fill early, so begin enquiries well before your planned move and check each school’s document checklist and visa/work-permit requirements.

FAQs for Vietnam

Which international curricula are commonly available in Vietnam and how do they differ at a glance?
Vietnam’s international sector typically offers the International Baccalaureate (PYP/MYP/DP), British programmes (EYFS/English National Curriculum, Cambridge IGCSE and A-level pathways) and US/Canadian or other national curricula with AP options; some schools follow Singaporean or Australian syllabuses as well. The IB emphasises inquiry and an international learner profile across age ranges, British/Cambridge routes use staged assessments such as IGCSEs and A-levels, and US/Canadian schools tend to provide a broader credit-based approach and AP options; choice usually depends on your family’s university destinations and your child’s learning preferences.
What is the typical language of instruction and will my child learn Vietnamese?
Most international schools teach primarily in English while offering Vietnamese lessons as a subject and, in many cases, a Vietnamese-bilingual stream for families who want stronger Vietnamese language and culture provision. Schools also increasingly provide mother-tongue or additional language support (for example Chinese or French) and English language learning (EAL/ESL) for newcomers, but the extent of bilingual provision varies by campus so you should check each school’s published language policy.
How much should we expect to pay and what extra costs should we plan for?
Tuition for fully international K - 12 schools in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi ranges widely; published guides and fee surveys show established international campuses commonly charging in the mid-five to mid-six-figure US dollar range per year at the upper end, while smaller or regional schools can be markedly lower. Beyond annual tuition, parents should budget for non-refundable application/registration fees, one-off development or capital levies, annual deposits, school transport, uniforms, meals and external exam fees - these extras can add materially to the total cost.
When does the school year usually start and how far ahead should we apply?
Most international schools in Vietnam set their own calendars and commonly start the academic year in mid-August (public schools follow a nationally set early-September date), and term structures vary by curriculum. Because demand is strong in major cities and some year groups have waiting lists, families are advised to start enquiries and the application process several months - and often up to around a year - before their intended start date so you can secure a place and complete visa, health and school paperwork.
What documentation and assessment should we expect during admissions?
Typical admissions requirements include a completed application form, the child’s passport or birth certificate, recent school reports or transcripts, up-to-date immunisation/health records and proof of parental identity or employment; many schools also require an entrance assessment or interview and may request English-language evidence where relevant. Exact checklists and any conditional offers differ between schools, so confirm the required documents and timelines with each school’s admissions office early in the process.
