Outstanding teaching and academic standards

We pride ourselves in our serious approach to education and our excellent teaching record. We believe in the education of the whole child and we ensure that teaching goes on beyond the classroom. We are also proud of our excellent study facilities and our team of highly qualified and committed staff. Our teachers are innovative and dedicated professionals who actively engage students in a stimulating classroom environment to make the whole learning process lively, enjoyable and memorable.

Creative approach to learning

In a nutshell, we believe that learning should be an enjoyable activity and not a daunting task. At The Continental School we provide every student with a broad and balanced education in a safe and supportive environment that promotes an enjoyment of learning and creates a strong motivation to succeed. We focus on students understanding concepts rather than merely memorizing facts and figures.

Working in close harmony with parents, we enable students to reach their full potential academically and socially and develop skills to become independent, self sufficient adults who will succeed in future and take their place in society as educated, thoughtful and responsible citizens.

A vibrant international experience

We welcome students of all nationalities and backgrounds and provide a supportive and tolerant community in which individuals are respected for who they are. The students experience a vibrant international community every day and learn quickly to accept and respect others and integrate naturally with different cultures. Our support for individuals, and our learning approach enable students coming from other schools in Egypt or abroad, to settle and integrate easily and quickly.
