Education

There are only two educational establishments on Geoje Island providing an international education up to middle school: ISK and BIA. ISK offers the IPC curriculum and BIA offers the IB curriculum. BIA also offers the CNED curriculum to French-speaking students.

For Primary and lower level, there is IYA SKOLA in Jisepo teaching a Canadian based curriculum. There are also several other kindergartens in which English is the main teaching language and a non-Korean curriculum/standard is used (e.g: GIKA in Gohyeon is using IPC). 

Some other local kindergartens teach a couple of classes using English language. Most of them also have native speaker teachers. Day care is also available as well as special courses in Hagwon (afternoon school) where music, art, sports, etc. are taught.
For higher school years and other schooling options, there are also International schools outside Geoje.
