College De La Salle

A Catholic Lasallian school in Jabal Al-Hussein, opened in 1950 and the oldest international-track school in this batch. Around 1,400 students, mostly Muslim, with Christian and Muslim teaching running in parallel.

Run by the Brothers of the Christian Schools, part of a global Lasallian network across 80 countries. The academic offer is unusually broad for Amman: IB Diploma since 2018, IGCSE and A-Level, the Jordanian Tawjihi and SAT prep, with English, Arabic and French in the language mix.

Fees are not made public, signalling a locally oriented intake. The school's identity is interfaith and community-rooted rather than expat-facing, and most parents choose it for the values and the long Lasallian tradition rather than for an international peer group. Useful option for families who want a religious-ethos school with a credible IB route.

• Long-running Lasallian Catholic school in Amman, often referred to locally as Frères, offering IB Diploma, IGCSE/A-level, Tawjihi and SAT.
• Parent and student opinion that surfaces is polarised. One Jordanian Reddit comment names Frères as one of the better Amman options on price-quality grounds; another former student describes it as one of the better Jordanian schools but still inadequate, framing the broader Jordanian school sector as weak.
• A separate Jordanian Reddit thread alleges that Muslim students at College De La Salle have faced harassment from Christian peers, presented as a counterpoint to similar accusations made about Muslim-majority schools.
• Independent directory reviews are thin and split between unattributed positive blurbs and a sharp negative review citing a 20-minute wait at a scheduled interview.
• The school's institutional positioning emphasises diversity across faiths; that frame doesn't fully reconcile with the lived-experience comments online.
