On the academic side the biggest practical advantage of a IGCSE school is portability — the syllabus and assessment pattern are identical nationally, so a job transfer mid-year doesn't cost your child an academic year. In Kolkata specifically, the density of IGCSE options means you can usually find a long-standing school inside a 6–8 km radius rather than committing to a long daily commute.

Fees and what they cover

Published fee schedule rarely tell the whole story. Ask each shortlisted school for the one-time admission charge, the annual development fee, transport by route, and the fee for the highest grade you plan to stay through — that last figure is what you're actually signing up for. Schools in Kolkata that quote a single all-inclusive annual number are usually the easiest to budget against.
