New Cairo British International School

NCBIS was established in 1978 by a group of parents, most of whom were connected with the World Health Organisation (WHO). The school has operated since that time as a “not-for-profit organisation” under the auspices of the Heliopolis Society for the Cultural and Social Care of English Speaking Foreigners (‘The Society’), and is managed through a Board of Directors elected from amongst the parent community.

NCBIS is a truly international community with more than 70 nationalities represented in its student population. The school prides itself of its close-knit community and is widely recognised for its welcoming environment.

The school boasts a highly qualified and experienced team of educators, carefully selected from some of the best schools in the UK and around the world. Renowned for its impressive academic track record, the school offers advanced educational programs, including A-levels and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program in the sixth form, paving the way for students to join prestigious universities globally. The learning environment is distinguished by small class sizes, ensuring individual attention for each student, alongside a comprehensive extracurricular program that fosters well-rounded development. The school also benefits from a strong community bond between parents and administration, creating a supportive and impactful educational atmosphere.
