Schools by curriculum
Schools teaching an international curriculum to internationally mobile families. The profiles below are the records with verified detail; the page also explains how to compare schools in this category properly.
In short
There is no universal ranking of schools in this category, because 'best' depends on the curriculum, the language, the qualification the next country requires, the child's needs and the family's budget. This page therefore lists the schools with verified detail and sets out the criteria that should drive the decision.
No institution is described here as universally "the best". Each list states the criteria behind it, and the right choice depends on the student's objective. Criteria applied:
