Korean Curriculum International Schools in Vietnam

Korean-curriculum international schools in Vietnam are schools set up to teach the South Korean national curriculum for elementary, middle and high school students and are most commonly found in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City to serve Korea-origin expatriate families. Instruction is predominantly in Korean, with English offered as a foreign-language subject and Vietnamese usually available as a local-language class or elective to help students live in-country. Fee structures and extra charges (entrance fees, meals, buses, uniforms and materials) are published by each school and vary widely; more expensive international schools in Vietnam give a sense of the local market range, but Korean-national schools publish their own specific tuition notices on their websites. Admissions commonly prioritise Korean nationals or Korean-speaking children and follow each school’s calendar - some align with Korea’s spring-entry rhythm while others adapt to a local or international academic calendar - so parents should allow several months for applications, language assessment and document translation.
