The British International School, Cairo

The School was established in 1976 to provide a balanced and challenging education based on British principles and curricula to meet the needs of the children of the expatriate British and Anglo-Egyptian communities; children from the Commonwealth and other countries with educational systems based upon British standards; children of the English-speaking Egyptian community and other nationalities tied to British-type schooling. In 1989, the School further strengthened its commitment to its international outlook by the introduction of the International Baccalaureate Diploma course which provides entrance to universities and colleges worldwide. BISC is a flourishing international school which has competitive pressure for places in all year groups. Academic results are strong, making the school one of the best in the Middle East. Parents are therefore encouraged to register their children for admission a year in advance of the entry point. This is particularly advisable in the Foundation Stage of the Junior School. Please refer to the admission section of the website for further details and contact information. In 2008, BISC opened its new, state-of-the-art campus in Beverly Hills. The campus has first-rate arts and science facilities and IT labs, together with excellent sporting facilities. Mission Statement The school’s mission is to be a vibrant international community offering an outstanding British-style education, focused on independent learning and the promotion of global citizenship. Vision Statement Our vision is to inspire all members of the school community to be curious, courageous, engaged and resilient learners, respecting diversity and motivated, as global citizens, to effect a positive change in society.
