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 in 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.
