The British School in Cairo -BSC

The British School in Cairo (BSC), established in August 2004, has grown significantly in size, facilities, and student numbers, now exceeding a thousand. Renowned for its academic excellence, its graduates secure placements at top universities locally and internationally, often with full scholarships. The school offers a holistic educational experience, emphasizing academic, social, and cultural growth, alongside extracurricular activities like sports, arts, and local and overseas trips. BSC maintains high ethical standards and exemplary student behavior, fostering a close connection with the local community through charitable events and partnerships, such as its agreement with the British University in Egypt. The school is committed to providing a comprehensive international education that prepares students for university, careers, and life, focusing on character building, cultural awareness, and essential life skills.

● BSC aims to offer a high standard of education to both Egyptian and international students in Cairo, through the adoption of the main principles of teaching and learning reflected in the National Curriculum of England.

● We aspire to be an outstanding educational organisation by:

- Striving for excellence;

- Meeting international standards of best practice in all aspects of the educational process;

- Empowering students with the knowledge, skills and attitudes which will enable them to explore hidden talents, and experiment, question, observe and apply what they are learning at their own pace and in their own way;

- Establishing and maintaining a school culture in which each and every student and staff member is valued, esteemed and encouraged;

- Creating a work environment where teachers are motivated to teach with passion and make continuous improvement in the quality of their teaching.

Education is never about only knowledge. It's a character building, personality preparation and mind opening process, so that then at the end of the path, we introduce to the world outstanding individuals that are ready to set their own future and know how to fetch the knowledge and skills they need.

Values

Empowerment: Through the recognition and development of their strengths and talents, our students will learn actively through student-centred approaches, and will develop their skills and be encouraged to achieve learner autonomy.

Lifelong Learning: Students at BSC become active learners and researchers, who are encouraged to make scholarship and the development of new skills a life-time habit.

Citizenship: We are dedicated to the development of the student as an active learner, a collaborator, and as a citizen of his/ her community and the world.  Our students will develop a sense of self-worth and self-discipline.
