What schools are in Monaco?

Monaco's school landscape is compact but the options for internationally mobile families are broader than the Principality's size suggests. The International School of Monaco offers the IB curriculum from early years through to the diploma and is the primary choice for English-speaking families. Lycée Albert Premier follows the French national curriculum and is well regarded academically. Many families also consider schools across the French border in Nice and the surrounding area, or Swiss boarding schools within easy reach.

Which curriculum is best for my child in Monaco?

This depends on the child's academic profile and longer-term university aspirations. The IB at the International School of Monaco suits families with an international outlook or those considering a range of global university destinations. French curriculum schools suit families committed to the French system. For families planning UK university applications or UK boarding school entry, British curriculum tuition alongside local schooling is often the most effective approach.

Can you help with mid-year or urgent school placements in Monaco?

Yes. We regularly support families who need a school place outside the standard admissions cycle. Monaco's school market is small and mid-year availability can be limited, so it is important to move quickly and explore cross-border options in parallel. We advise honestly on what is achievable within the timeframe and manage the process accordingly.

Do you provide private tutors in Monaco?

Yes. We place British-trained private tutors across Monaco and the Riviera, working across all age groups and curricula. Tuition is available in-person or online and can be arranged on an hourly basis or as part of a structured academic programme.

Why do Families Choose Monaco For Education?

A stable, discreet base for family life on the Riviera.

Monaco is one of Europe's most discreet and stable bases for internationally mobile families, offering strong schooling options within the Principality and across the wider Riviera, with Switzerland's boarding schools and the French Riviera's international schools all within easy reach.

Treberys Private works directly with families in Monaco and the surrounding Riviera, placing tutors and education consultants on the ground across the Principality. We have supported families navigating the Monaco school market, placed residential tutors on the Riviera, and guided students through competitive UK and US university applications.

What is the education landscape in Moanco?

A small but international school market, with strong cross-border options.

Monaco's school landscape is compact by comparison to larger markets, but the options available to internationally mobile families are broader than the Principality's size suggests. The cross-border dimension is significant: many families based in Monaco send their children to schools in nearby France, particularly in Nice, Antibes, and the surrounding area, or consider Swiss boarding schools within comfortable distance.

Within Monaco itself, the key institutions for English-speaking and internationally mobile families are the International School of Monaco, which offers the IB curriculum from early years through to the diploma, and Lycée Albert Premier, the state school which follows the French national curriculum and is well regarded academically. For families seeking a more British educational experience, private tuition and homeschooling programmes are a common supplement to or replacement for the local school offer.

For families considering UK boarding schools from a Monaco base, our school placements page covers that pathway in detail. Many families we work with in Monaco are simultaneously managing education on the Riviera and preparing older children for entry into UK boarding schools.

Curriculum choice in Monaco requires particular care given the cross-border complexity. We advise families on the right approach from the outset, ensuring decisions made in Monaco align with longer-term university aspirations and potential school transitions elsewhere.
