International school detail of The British School Al Rehab

Welcome to The British School's Web-site,

The British School Al Rehab is a friendly school where every child is known and valued as an individual and parents are welcome guests and partners. We offer a traditional "British School" education teamed with the best of new ideas and technologies. We are a registered centre for Cambridge International and London Edexcel and we offer the full range of IGCSE and A level examinations.

The British School follows the English National Curriculum. This means that the Mathematics, English and Science is the same as that taught in schools in the UK. In addition we teach History, Geography, Art and Information Technology using the International Primary Curriculum (IPC).

We have started this exciting new development because we believe that helping children learn - academically, socially, spiritually, emotionally and physically - is the real purpose of schools. What your children learn should respect the past but must also prepare them for a world in which they are going to live. That's why the IPC focuses on academic and personal development, and the development of a global awareness. Learning should be active and engaging, and, above all meaningful to children.

We provide PE, Music, French and Arabic taught by specialists. We have excellent sports facilities, two Music rooms, two ICT rooms and three specialist Science laboratories.

All class teachers are UK qualified and have taught in schools in England so that we can offer genuine British Curriculum education with its two key features:  The language of instruction is English and the teaching style emphasises the application of knowledge to problem solving and the use of imagination and discussion to help understand our world.

We are very aware of our position in Egypt and respond to the wishes of our parents by also offering a full Arabic Language curriculum based on the Egyptian syllabus together with Islamic Studies and Christian Studies. Finally in recognition of its major role in Egyptian history, we offer French.

British education is renowned for concerning itself with the development of the whole personality. We believe that Learning is important, but not enough in itself.

We aim to encourage and challenge pupils to develop into well-educated confident people ready to lead fulfilled lives in whatever sphere they choose. We value all pupils equally as individuals and provide a safe and civilised environment in which they can develop.  Above all we want to inspire in pupils a love for learning which will sustain them throughout their lives.
