The Best Cambridge Schools in Addis Ababa (2026)

If you have decided on the Cambridge pathway, the next question is simply: where? Addis Ababa has a growing set of Cambridge and British-curriculum schools to choose from.

Why families choose Cambridge

Cambridge is structured, subject-focused and built around recognised exams, and its qualifications transfer cleanly to universities worldwide. For families who value clear progress and global portability, it is a natural fit.

Cambridge and British options in Addis

Schools following Cambridge or British curricula include Cambridge Academy Ethiopia, Bingham Academy, Reach (RICE) and One Planet, with Sandford offering a mix. Nucleus joins them with a Cambridge pathway from age 2 through Grade 8 at Vatican, near Mekanisa.

How to compare Cambridge schools

Which Cambridge stages are actually taught at your child’s grade today?
What is the school’s track record and teacher quality?
What is the all-in cost, including one-time fees?
How secure and well-run is the campus day to day?

A name on a list means little until you have walked the halls. Nucleus would welcome your questions and a visit. See the Cambridge pathway in action before you decide.
