Introduction

Located in Monaco, The British School of Monaco opened in November 2022 as a family‑run school delivering a British Curriculum with English‑language instruction at the heart of every classroom. The school follows the English National Curriculum, adapted for local characteristics, and is accredited and recognised as a Cambridge school. A broad Cambridge pathway for Years 7–11 leads to IGCSEs, followed by A‑Levels, with English as the language of instruction throughout. French is taught from Year 1 to Year 6, and the school offers an Individual Programme to tailor secondary, IGCSE and A‑Level pathways to individual learners. The campus comprises a primary site with indoor spaces and a nearby recreation area at the Modelex site, owned by the school and recognised by authorities, with a planned secondary site atop a cliff beside Jardin Exotique connected by a lift to shorten travel between sites. Facilities include spacious classrooms for up to sixteen pupils, whiteboards and interactive smartboards, a well‑stocked library and access to a swimming pool and local stadia for PE. The school runs a house system, a diverse enrichment programme, and participates in activities such as the Duke of Edinburgh's Award, off‑site trips, and reading initiatives.
