Metropolitan School

Metropolitan School was founded by the Habib family, who have over 60 years of experience in private education in Egypt, starting in 1954 when Mr. Fouad Habib established one of the first private schools. He received several honors for his contributions to education, including recognition from Presidents Gamal Abdel Nasser and Anwar Sadat. In 1983, his son, Dr. Samah Fouad Habib, modernized the curriculum by integrating technology and innovative teaching methods, as well as introducing a bachelor's program in Computer Science. In 2015, his grandson, Mr. Seif Samah Habib, reopened the school, launching an entrepreneurship program aligned with global standards, in collaboration with educational consultants from Dubai, reflecting their commitment to providing exceptional education that blends Egyptian values with international perspectives.
