Education and Schools
Back to top Back to main Skip to menuCyprus - Education and Schools
The Cyprus Government also has a policy of ensuring that the children of EU citizens can continue with their education while they live in Cyprus. Intensive Greek language classes are provided for them, so that they can attend state schools, and training is also provided for teachers to assist them in teaching children whose first language is not Greek.
In Cyprus, children attend compulsory pre-school education from the age of 4 to 5, primary education from 5 to 11 and secondary education from 11 to 18. Cyprus then offers the University of Cyprus (established in 1989), private colleges and schools and state training institutions such as the Higher Technical Institute, the Forestry College, the Higher Hotel Institute and more.
There are no international schools in Northern Cyprus, but at Sunny Lane private school (primary and secondary) teaching is in English and Turkish, and the programme of education closely follows the British curriculum.
