Expats moving to Vienna with children will be glad to know that there are a number of international schools in the city. These schools are well equipped to deal with the challenges faced by students who have relocated to a new city and country. International schools follow the national curriculum of their home country or globally recognised programmes such as the International Baccalaureate.
While international schools typically offer a high level of education in a diverse setting, they are also often prohibitively expensive. Expat parents moving to Vienna for work purposes are advised to try to negotiate an education allowance into their relocation contact.
