Multilingual pathways for every family
International schools - English-led with bilingual depth
Andorra has two international schools that teach mainly in English while building strong Catalan, Spanish and French.
Agora Andorra International School offers an IB pathway that includes the Primary Years Programme and the Diploma Programme, alongside a boarding option for older students that can help with logistics. The campus above La Massana makes the outdoors part of school life.
The British College of Andorra follows the English National Curriculum and is an IB World School for the Diploma Programme, with a green, wooded campus minutes above the capital that fits Andorra’s outdoor lifestyle. Both schools publish current curricula and admissions details openly.
Andorran system - Catalan-first and truly multilingual
The Andorran public system teaches mainly in Catalan and brings Spanish and French in early, with English added as students progress. It is designed for practical multilingualism and close contact between teachers and families, and it sits within a wider public network that coexists with the French and Spanish systems across the country.
“Roots and wings - in four languages”
French system - French-first within a public network
The French public system in Andorra follows France’s curriculum, led locally by the French education delegation and connected to the AEFE network of accredited schools worldwide. Children study primarily in French with Catalan and Spanish present, and English as they advance. Families who value continuity with France often choose this route.
Admissions, day to day and fees
Admissions are straightforward once your residency plan is clear. Public systems enrol locally by age and catchment, while international schools handle admissions directly with families. Public schooling is tuition-free for resident families in the Andorran and French public networks, with families paying for materials, canteen, transport and activities. International schools are fee-paying, with annual tuition and enrolment charges that vary by stage - we can obtain the latest schedules for your child’s year and language track.
What this means for your family
Whichever path you choose, your child will hear and use Catalan, Spanish, French and English every day - in town, on the slopes and in the classroom. Confidence grows quickly when language is lived as part of ordinary life, and the short distances and small communities keep everything personal and manageable.
