Phnom Penh’s private schools found the least costly in region

A study released by the International Schools Database (ISB) has found  international school fees in Cambodia’s capital city are the least costly among major cities in Asia. However, observers say the level of credentials some of the international schools hold, as well as the education being provided, could be the reason.

In Phnom Penh, tuitions charged by international schools range between $1,855 and $25,000 per year, the lowest among 19 major cities surveyed across various Asian countries. The cities surveyed included Beijing, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Seoul, Singapore; Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe, Hong Kong, Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Yangon, Bangkok, Phuket, Taipei, Jakarta, Manila and Kuala Lumpur.

Beijing is the most expensive with fees averaging between $8,097 and $41,389 per year. It was followed by Shanghai, Shenzhen, Seoul and Singapore. Phnom Penh is now home to more than 50 international schools and is considered a good option for Western families looking to relocate to Asia where there is inexpensive schooling.
