Private schools in Iran offer an alternative to the public education system, providing various curricula and teaching methods. These schools often emphasize academic excellence and may include international programs, such as the International Baccalaureate or British and American curricula, catering to diverse student needs. While private schools can provide better resources and smaller class sizes, they also come with higher tuition fees. Many families choose private education for its perceived quality and the opportunity for their children to learn in a more flexible environment, which can include a focus on foreign languages and technology.
