Introduction

The International School Warsaw is a private international day school delivering a multilingual curriculum for ages 5–14 across two Warsaw campuses. Grades 0–3 study at the Działkowa Street campus and grades 4–8 at Jagielska Street, both near Kabacki Forest. The school runs a bilingual program that combines Poland's core curriculum with a Canadian program validated by international standards, taught in five languages: English, Polish, French, German and Spanish. English is taught through full immersion to support bilingualism; Polish is taught by qualified teachers and English-speaking staff contribute to language development. The Canadian program emphasizes project-based learning, communication, information management and debate, with CEFR-aligned instruction and preparation for international exams. A double primary school diploma is awarded, recognized in Poland, the USA and Canada. Facilities include modern classrooms, a sports hall, computer lab, art room, international library and 3D printers, with parallel age-appropriate spaces and a focus on hands-on learning for students.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Tuition is billed in either 10 or 12 installments depending on the grade; the schedule for each grade is specified above (examples: grades paid in 10 installments for many grades; some grades offer 12). Installment frequency and number define the per‑installment amount and annual total.
- Certain items are charged as one‑time payments (see "Other costs"). In some years a reservation fee (applied e.g. to Grade 1) was non‑refundable and counted toward the first tuition installment.

Boarding fees
- Boarding is not applicable; The International School operates as a day primary school (grades 0–8) and does not publish boarding or residential accommodation fees.

Other costs and recurring additional charges
- Field trips / program trips: 500 PLN (one‑time, per year) in the most recent published schedule; amounts for specific class trips (e.g. Green School) are charged separately and are paid directly to the trip operator — typical Green School range shown as 1,500–2,500 PLN.
- Textbooks and workbooks not covered by grants: deposit/advance 500 PLN (one‑time), to be settled once books are purchased.
- School supplies (Wyprawka): 300 PLN one‑time in the first semester and 300 PLN one‑time in the second semester (total typically 600 PLN per year in the 2023/24 schedule).
- Insurance: one‑time group insurance fee around 90 PLN (covers Sept 1–Aug 31, 24/7; includes school and out‑of‑school sports activities, excluding extreme sports) — shown as 90 PLN in recent published schedule.
- Example (earlier year) program charges: program trips 360 PLN and Green School 980 PLN were listed in the 2021/22 schedule; amounts vary by year and by trip.
- Additional activities (optional extracurricular clubs) have separate fees paid per activity or per semester; pricing and payment terms for these activities are published in the school's additional‑activities documents.

Uniform costs
- School uniform items are sold via the school's online uniform store; example price list items (PLN): short‑sleeve polo shirts from about 64–76 PLN depending on size; navy bomber sweatshirts from about 109–120 PLN; plaid skirts about 124–146 PLN; formal white shirts about 85–95 PLN; tie 50 PLN. Parent purchases of uniform pieces are paid separately at the listed prices.

Refunds and cancellation terms
- A reservation fee applied in earlier published materials was explicitly non‑refundable (example: 2,500 PLN reservation fee for Grade 1 in 2021/22, credited toward the first tuition installment). Beyond that specific item, a clear general refund schedule for enrollment or tuition (for mid‑year withdrawals or other cancellations) is not published in the fee tables; such terms are governed by the School's Enrollment Regulations and the Education Agreement signed at admission and by any specific billing notes. Parents should assume deposits or reservation installments may be non‑refundable when stated in the applicable fee document or agreement.

Fee payment options and accounts
- Bank transfer (PLN) is accepted for school fees; the school publishes dedicated bank accounts for the preschool (grades 0) and for the primary school (grades 1–8). Example account numbers shown for payments are: 60 1910 1048 2258 9665 5331 0001 (preschool / grades 0) and 65 1090 1883 0000 0001 5734 7561 (primary school / grades 1–8). Payments are therefore arranged by bank transfer to the appropriate account.
- Meal ordering and payment is handled through a prepayment meal system; parents prepay for lunches using the meal‑ordering application specified by the school.
- Uniform purchases are processed through the school's uniform supplier/online store.

Brief note on availability of fee schedules (summary of findings)
- The school's most recently published comprehensive fee schedule available on the school site is for the 2023/24 school year (detailed installment amounts and one‑time charges are listed above). Earlier published schedules for 2021/22 are also available and show similar categories with smaller numeric amounts. No explicit 2025/26 or 2026/27 published fee schedule was found in the school's downloadable documents at the time of this check; parents should expect annual updates and that some fees (field trips, Green School, optional activities, insurance, uniform) are billed separately from core tuition.

Admissions

Admissions
1. Submit the online enrollment form to enroll your child or book a trial day. The form requires information such as the grade to which the child will attend (0-8) and the school year (2024/2025, 2025/2026, 2026/2027, 2027/2028, 2028/2029). It also collects the child's name, date and place of birth, nationality, native language, previous school, and the parent's contact details. The process states that the trial day is free of charge and that submitting the form does not guarantee admission. 2. Attend a trial day. During the trial day, the child spends the full day with a class as a guest, integrates with peers, and participates in activities. The day includes several meetings to diagnose Polish core curriculum knowledge (Polish language and mathematics) and a Canadian program teacher verifies the level of English. A school psychologist also provides support during the day. 3. Review admission documents. Admission is open year-round. The school provides Enrollment Regulations and Applications for admission to grade 0-3 and grade 4-8. The enrollment form and related documents are listed under the Documents section. 4. Graduation and post-education options. Graduates receive a Polish primary school graduation certificate under the new Ministry of National Education curriculum, a Canadian certificate (including learning score report cards) recognized in the U.S. and Canada, and language certificates such as YLE, PET, KET, and PCE. A double diploma and language proficiency enable continued education not only in Poland but also abroad.
