Choosing an international school in Ivory Coast

The most widely offered are British Curriculum (5), French Curriculum (5), Bespoke Curriculum (4), IB (DP) (3), American Curriculum (3). 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.

How doris stays impartial
doris lists every international school in Ivory Coast 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.
