IB Curriculum International Schools in Egypt

Many international schools in Egypt offer one or more International Baccalaureate programmes - the Primary Years, Middle Years and Diploma - and the IB presence is strongest in Greater Cairo and Alexandria where most international families look first. Instruction is commonly in English, with Arabic taught as a required subject for Egyptian nationals and French offered at a number of bilingual or francophone schools; schools vary in how they balance English, Arabic and other languages. Fees vary widely by neighbourhood and school tier, but many Cairo-area international schools sit in a mid-range around EGP 150,000 a year while both lower-cost and substantially higher premium options exist, so always check the current published schedule and billing currency. Admissions follow an annual cycle with the main intake in September and some mid-year places in January or later; families relocating from overseas should apply early, expect interviews and cognitive or subject assessments, and be prepared to show passports, previous school reports and vaccination records.
