The recent ExpatFinder International School Fee Survey 2016 has found that Singapore is the 7th most expensive country for international education. Designed to provide guidance on navigating cost challenges relating to global relocation, the study bases its ranking on a comprehensive market survey of 707 international schools across 98 countries.
The annual survey also captures sentiments around international school fees to not only highlight challenges for expats, but also opportunities for companies to remain attractive to foreign talent.
Based on the median of the 6th grade (for ages 11 to 12) tuition fees per country, the top three most expensive countries for international education are China (US$36,400 per annum), Switzerland (US$28,300 per annum) and Belgium (US$27,800 per annum).
Not far behind with fees above US$20,000 per annum, the countries that make to the top 10 out of 98 countries (in descending order) are United Kingdom, Hong Kong, United States, Singapore, Malaysia, Austria and Australia.
