Choosing an international school in Pakistan

Curricula

There are 61 international schools in Pakistan covering 20 curricula. The most widely offered are Cambridge IGCSE (31), Cambridge (Secondary) (27), Cambridge A Levels (25), Cambridge International AS Levels (24), Cambridge (Primary) (22). If your child may move countries again, an internationally-portable curriculum (IB, or Cambridge/British) keeps options open; if you're likely to settle, a curriculum matching your home or target university system can be the better fit.

Fees & what they cover

Annual tuition across Pakistan runs from about PKR 76,000 to PKR 8,196,559, averaging roughly PKR 1,629,634. Budget for one-off costs on top — application and enrolment fees, a refundable deposit, uniform, transport and exams.

Admissions & timing

Sought-after schools in Pakistan run waiting lists, so apply early — ideally a term or two ahead. Most admissions involve an application, prior school reports and an assessment or interview, with entry points often tied to the school year. Each school's profile shows term dates, open days and how to enquire.

Boarding

4 of the 61 schools offer boarding — useful if you're relocating or want weekly or full boarding.

How doris stays impartial

doris lists every international school in Pakistan we can find — not only those that pay. We take no placement fees and sell no rankings or "top school" spots, so the schools above aren't ordered by who paid most. Details come from the schools' own information and public sources, and you can compare any of them side by side.
