Choosing the best private school for your child

The goal of private schools in Tbilisi is not only to ensure the acquisition of knowledge in core and additional subjects, but also to nurture leadership qualities, communication skills, and the ability to work in a team. Primary school education is the first stage in the process of acquiring knowledge, and it is during this time that an active interest in learning, homework, and reading books is formed.

Professional and qualified teachers work at the school, finding an individual approach to each child. This makes it possible to earn the highest authority, respect, and honesty from the students.

All relationships in a private school in Georgia are built on friendliness and honesty, and the administration always takes into account the wishes and needs of both students and their parents. An important part of the educational process is the establishment of a friendly and supportive atmosphere for developing communication skills with peers and teachers. Moral upbringing is supported through regular themed celebrations, cultural events, and field trips.

The program includes not only lessons with highly qualified teachers, but also sports activities, and the development of creative and musical abilities. A daily walk is also part of the schedule for primary school children.

Languages of instruction, international programmes, and costs

For families who have recently moved to Georgia, one of the first practical questions is what language their child will be taught in. State schools operate in Georgian. Private schools offer considerably more options: some teach entirely in English, others combine Georgian, English, and additional languages.

The IB programme (International Baccalaureate). Schools in Tbilisi are accredited to deliver IB programmes — a widely recognised international educational standard whose diplomas are accepted by universities worldwide. IB suits families who plan to relocate again or want their child to apply to a European or American university without needing to have a certificate re-validated. Check which specific programme the school delivers: PYP (primary), MYP (middle), or IB Diploma (senior).

Multilingual instruction. A number of Tbilisi private schools offer bilingual or trilingual programmes — Georgian plus English, sometimes plus French or German. For children arriving without Georgian, some schools offer transition classes or intensive language support.

Tuition fees at Tbilisi private schools vary widely. Schools with standard programmes cost considerably less than internationally accredited IB schools, which can be comparable in price to European private institutions. When choosing a school, check what is included in the fee: meals, transport, learning materials, clubs, and after-school activities are often charged separately. You can find and compare private schools by city in the Madloba catalogue.
