About international schools in Alexandria, Egypt
Alexandria’s more affordable international schools tend to follow the British or American curricula (with some schools offering IB programmes or Cambridge IGCSE) and teach mainly in English while meeting Egyptian Ministry requirements for Arabic and national subjects. Fee levels vary a lot: budget-friendly options listed in local directories commonly start in the low tens of thousands of Egyptian pounds per year, while long-established British or American schools sit higher and can reach into the mid-to-high tens of thousands (and above) depending on year group and services. Admissions normally follow the Egyptian school calendar, with the academic year beginning in early September and schools opening applications for the following year in the months beforehand; many also offer mid-year entry for relocations. For a relocating family, expect an application, recent school reports, birth and identity documents, vaccination records and an entry assessment or interview as part of enrolment checks, and plan visits or virtual meetings to confirm language support and transport options before committing to a contract.
