Welcome to The International School of Choueifat - Cairo, Egypt, a member of the global SABIS® Network. It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the official website of our school, ISC-Cairo. ISC-Cairo is a fully accredited, co-educational, English-medium, independent day school catering to the complete individual from KG 1 to Grade 12. Since 1995, we have provided our students with a world-class education that prepares them to meet the challenges of the 21st century. Our curriculum is aligned to international standards, allowing students to sit for a variety of external exams, including the U.S.-based (ACT, SAT TOEFL, and AP®) and British-based exams (IELTS, IGCSE, O-Level, and AS & A Levels).
We believe that the success of our school is measured by the value that we add to each student with a balance of academics, life preparation, and self-development. Through our SABIS® Student Life Organization, we strive to instill an international mindset in our students that promotes empathy for others, the acceptance of multiculturalism, and a responsibility for caring for the wider community. Our dedicated teachers and staff help all students achieve their full potential, preparing them for success in college with the ability and desire for lifelong learning.
Furthermore, we believe that parents/guardians are their child's first and most important teachers. Parents/guardians play a vital role in the education of their children, which is why we always strive to build strong parent-school communication that ensures the success of our students.
My commitment to our school community is to lead the school with enthusiasm and passion to enable us to maintain a clear vision for our school and share a set of commitments that bind the community together.
We invite you to visit our remarkable campus set in the heart of District 5, New Cairo, and look forward to welcoming you to The International School of Choueifat - Cairo.
