🇵🇭 International Schools in Manila

4 schools, profiled on verifiable public data.

Metro Manila has a mature international-school market anchored by the Philippines' oldest and largest international school (International School Manila, founded 1920), concentrated heavily in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. The mix spans American-into-IB (ISM, Brent), British-into-IB (British School Manila) and Catholic American-curriculum (Everest). The Philippines has no graded public inspectorate, so quality is anchored on international accreditation — WASC, CIS, the IB and Cognia — rather than a state rating band. Fees are often quoted as a combined US-dollar + Philippine-peso charge, a local convention.
