Principal's Welcome"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." School Mission Statement

We welcome you to the British International School, Cairo, a school with a long, illustrious history and proud reputation since being founded in 1976.
BISC provides a British international education, with a proven commitment to the highest academic standards, within a community where the child is at the centre and is nurtured in a warm, caring and safe environment to achieve and be successful.
Our pastoral care supports each and every child as valued and respected individuals to discover and support their individual passions, talents and future growth. Our pupils develop holistically to be exceptional young people who, as the global citizens of the future, will play a valuable and responsible role in society demonstrating the confidence, skills and knowledge to make a difference for the better.
They are articulate, resilient, discerning, compassionate and ambitious, rising to challenges before them, and people who recognise their responsibilities as the leaders and global citizens of the future.
We are a community where all are valued, where every child is known, and their uniqueness celebrated. Our BISC education is ambitious and prepares them for an ever-changing world with curricula rooted in British education, and programmes such as IGCSEs and the IB Diploma tailored to the local context of where we are in the world. We engage with the best international practices and pedagogy led by our expertly qualified and experienced teachers. Our practice is based on current and proven educational research as well as demonstrating the value we place on the individual identity of our children including the following a far reaching programme which embraces the Arabic language and the culture of Egypt and the region.
We are all very proud of BISC and look forward to welcoming you to visit us. Our alumni return and contribute to our school, as well as our parents who play a valued and supportive role in the community. We hope that you too will want to be a part of this exceptional community.
