Fees
Overview of fees

- The BG/BRG Klosterneuburg is a public school and charges no regular tuition or school fees for general enrolment.

Application / assessment fees

- Bilingual programme entrance assessment fee: €25 per child (one-off charge to cover the costs of the two-part assessment). Payment details and deadline are provided at registration.

Tuition and programme-specific fees by year group

- General school instruction (all year groups): no tuition charged; standard public-school provision is free of school fees.

- Bilingual Programme (for pupils enrolled in the bilingual stream): a voluntary membership contribution of €50 per month per pupil to the “Verein zur Förderung der bilingualen Klassen” to cover extra teaching materials, English coursebooks and native-speaking teachers. This contribution is collected by direct debit/standing order; the contribution is taken in five instalments per year, each instalment covering two months' contribution. (Equivalent annual total for the voluntary contribution: €50 × 10 months = €500, collected in five payments of €100 each.)

- International Baccalaureate (IB) students: in addition to the voluntary €50 monthly association contribution, IB students are liable for a one-off set of IB examination fees (listed as €534 at the school for the IB Diploma assessments).

After-school care, supervised lunch and other recurring charges

- Nachmittagsbetreuung (afternoon supervised care) — available for lower-year pupils with monthly rates as follows:
- 5 days/week: €88 per month

- School trips, sports weeks, language trips and other extracurricular events are charged separately; the parents' association can provide confidential financial assistance for such events. The parents' support fund and social fund may provide immediate assistance amounts (examples noted: one-off immediate assistance amounts and a social-fund ceiling for ad-hoc support when required).

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Bilingual programme contribution: collected by standing order/direct debit five times per year; each collection covers two months' contribution. Deadline and bank details are supplied at registration and at the time of the assessment.

- Bilingual assessment fee: payable by the deadline stated for the assessment process (the registration/assessment notice specifies a payment due date). Bank details for the association are provided for that payment.

The bilingual programme contribution is a voluntary association membership payment collected by the association; the one-off assessment fee is charged to cover assessment costs. The parents' association and a school social fund provide confidential financial assistance for families in need. Specific refund or cancellation terms for particular paid services (for example, refunds for cancelled trips or withdrawn care enrolments) are handled on a case-by-case basis through the school or the parents' association.

Other notes on costs

- Where optional or external assessments, official IB examination fees, extracurricular trips, special project fees, or optional certified tests occur, those costs are charged in addition to the items listed above and are billed individually. Financial assistance via the parents' association and school social funds is available to help families meet such costs.

Academics

Gymnasium Klosterneuburg International School teaches Bespoke Curriculum, IB (DP) for students aged 10 to 18.

Curriculum
The Bilingual Programme follows the Austrian curriculum for secondary schools. English begins in Grade 1 and is gradually used in more subjects; by Grade 4 students can follow lessons taught entirely in English. In the upper school, students may complete the Austrian school leaving exam and can also earn the International Baccalaureate Diploma as part of the bilingual track. The programme teaches a third foreign language from Grade 5, and Latin is offered in a reduced form that still meets university requirements. The IB component includes six subjects with higher and standard levels, plus core elements such as Theory of Knowledge, the Extended Essay, and CAS; the timetable is tailored to integrate both curricula and at least seven hours of IB courses are chosen according to the student's interests.

Higher Education Progression
There is a dedicated university counselling service that guides and assists pupils in applications to colleges and universities in the UK and USA.

Gifted and Talented
A broad range of IB electives and the option to study three subjects at higher level allows advanced students to tailor their learning; tutorials, support programmes, and native English-speaking teachers are available to support bilingual and enhanced study.

Admissions

Admissions
The Bilingual Programme uses English and German in the Lower School. The IB Diploma Programme is taught and examined exclusively in English. For the 2026/27 school year there are currently no places available in Grades 1, 2, 4, 5, and 8. In January/February of the entry year, the legal guardian must register the student using the online form for general enrolment and select the preference for the Bilingual Programme. The online general enrolment form requires you to select the Bilingual Programme as the preferred option; after submitting, you will be invited to enrol on one of the three specified registration days. The school provides links for online pre-registration on Sokrates (select 'Interesse am Bilingual Programme') and for online appointment booking for registration at the school office. After registering at the school office, interviews with the head of school and members of our teaching staff take place in mid-February for all new pupils. A two-part consultation procedure is then necessary and takes place in the language of choice (German or English) at the end of February/beginning of March. If you register during the general enrolment process, you will receive all necessary information; if the child wishes to join the Bilingual Programme later, there is a consultation procedure as well. All placements into grades 1 to 7 are administered by the Bilingual Office. It is a legal requirement to live in the Klosterneuburg catchment area, which includes central Klosterneuburg and surrounding districts. There is an orientation day in late February to determine the most suitable candidates for the 50 places in Year 1, with invitations issued accordingly. In cases of oversubscription for admission into grades 2–7, the admissions policy sets the criteria and a waiting list is used for the Bilingual Programme; if a bilingual place is not allocated, a place in a regular class is guaranteed.

Waitlist
Oversubscription criteria and a waiting list exist for the Bilingual Programme; if no bilingual place is available, a regular class place is guaranteed.
