There is a wide choice of international schools and kindergartens, each with its own unique approach to education. Some schools offer an Internal Baccalaureate and General Certificate of Secondary Education. There are also schools that provide a non-English education (e.g. French, Japanese, German) that can help an expat student feel more at home. Space is often limited and preference may be given to students based on nationality. You should research the curriculum ahead of time, and ensure it is appropriate for your child's background and future. Admission and enrollment procedures vary from school to school.
International schools are very expensive, but usually offer high standards of learning, boast smaller class sizes, first-rate facilities, and extracurricular's. Expect to pay 40,000 EGP per term, with fees for enrollment, testing etc.
