← London league tableThe cheapest international schools in London
The 10 lowest verified annual fees in London at age 16, on 2026/2027 published fees. Tuition and entry costs are separate: a school can be cheaper per year and dearer to join.
Not every school in this UK selection is an international school
Britain is the one market where the two overlap. Alongside the international schools — IB or American curriculum, internationally accredited, multinational intake — this ranking includes long-established British independent (private) day schools that teach the National Curriculum of England to a largely British intake. They are here because families relocating to London weigh them against the international schools, and their published fees compare directly. The curriculum column is the quick guide: on this list, “British (National Curriculum of England)” marks a UK private school.
