How to choose a school in Berlin for your family

Start with your child's year group, teaching language and daily journey. Then compare the full bill. A school can be a good fit for one family and a poor fit for another. The list above is a directory, not a best-school ranking.

  1. Check the class, not just the school name. Ask which language teachers use for maths, science and other subjects in your child's year. An English lesson does not mean an English-taught school.
  2. Check the next qualification. Ask what the course leads to and what earlier study your child needs. A move during secondary school may affect subject choices.
  3. Ask about support before accepting a place. Discuss language help and learning needs with the school. A programme name alone does not confirm the support available in a particular class.
  4. Try the school journey. Check the correct campus, the start time and the trip home after clubs. Compare the journey from your planned home.

School fees in Berlin: read the date before the price

Use the same year and year group when you compare fees. Separate tuition from entry fees, meals, care, materials and other charges. A monthly amount only gives a yearly total when the school states how many payments are due.

For example, Moser Schule's published fee table is dated March 2024. It lists 12 payments of €400 for Grades 5–6, €430 for Grades 7–10 and €445 for Grades 11–12: €4,800, €5,160 and €5,340 a year in tuition. These are historical examples, not confirmed 2026/27 prices or a Berlin average. The listed €500 entry charge and extras add to the bill. Official fee and admission page, checked 21 September 2026.

Build a shortlist, then confirm the details

Open the profiles of Berlin British School, Berlin Cosmopolitan School and Moser Schule to check their recorded programmes, fees and sources. These links are starting points, not recommendations or a claim that all three offer the same teaching language.

Use the comparison buttons in the school list to put your choices side by side. Treat “not confirmed” as a question to resolve, not as “no”. Ask each school for a written fee breakdown and confirmation of the right class and start date.

Follow the school application checklist, read about English-language support, or compare schools across Germany.

Curricula represented: AbiBac, Abitur, American, British, German, German Abitur, IB Diploma, IB PYP, IGCSE. Labels describe the published programmes; qualifications and entry points vary by stage.

Reported teaching languages: English, French, German. Check the language of instruction for the specific class; a language subject is not the same as a bilingual programme.
