The summer months are an ideal time for families relocating to the French Riviera, or planning ahead for the next academic year, to visit schools and make informed decisions. Two of the top schools on the Côte d’Azur – the International School of Nice (ISN) and Mougins British International School – both remain open throughout July and August, offering private tours by appointment.
As proud members of Globeducate—a leading international group of premium schools—ISN and Mougins welcome students from ages 3 to 18, offering distinct yet complementary educational journeys, with a shared commitment to academic excellence, student wellbeing, and global engagement.
Relocating your family to the French Riviera
Moving to the French Riviera comes with many decisions, including where to live and how to find a school that reflects your values, suits your family’s lifestyle, and supports your child’s academic path. Whether you are based closer to Monaco, Nice, Cannes or Mougins, prefer the International Baccalaureate or British curriculum—we have your schooling needs covered.
With ISN and Mougins School working together in the region, families benefit from two high-quality international schools, each with a strong identity and a proven track record.
International School of Nice (ISN)
At ISN, families will discover a well-established IB World School offering the full International Baccalaureate continuum (PYP, MYP and DP), with a strong focus on innovation, personal and holistic development and real-world learning. Facilities include a new Space Centre, modern labs, a Marine Learning Hub, and specialist areas for design, sport and performing arts. The school welcomes children from over 65 nationalities and has been recognised in The Schools Index as one of the top private schools globally.
Mougins British International School
At Mougins School, we offer the English National Curriculum all the way through to IGCSEs and A-levels, combining academic rigour with a strong track record of outstanding results. Set in a beautiful, wooded campus, our school provides a calm and inspiring environment where students feel connected to nature and supported in every aspect of their development. Our holistic approach places well-being and personal growth at the heart of the learning journey, while also encouraging excellence across sport, art, and music — allowing each student to grow in confidence and flourish in their individual passions.
Book a private tour of ISN or Mougins School
During a summer visit, families will be offered a tailored admissions experience. Each tour is led by a member of the school admissions team, offering the opportunity to ask questions, understand the school culture, and explore how your child can grow and succeed in our community.
Places are available for September 2025 in selected year groups at both schools.
