We value the British education system and know that it builds a solid foundation for any young person aspiring to go onto to study at university. All students, regardless of age and ability, will make exceptional progress, especially given that our core values are to invest in excellent teaching and learning as well as having world-class facilities.

The campus provides education from Early Years right through High School, where students receive excellent support and guidance to allow them to make the right choices for the next stage in their education, as well as the prospect of receiving excellent academic qualifications.

We recognize the commitment to provide a wonderful learning environment and to ensure that all students are relishing their educational experience. Having a high expectation of all students is important to us here at BICC, as well as ensuring that every student reaches their full potential. It is our key focus to ensure that students have every opportunity to excel, both academically and personally.

Our ultimate goal is to be one of the leading schools in Egypt providing an excellent education for all of our learners, and the recruitment of highly qualified and competent teachers has ensured that we are well on track to deliver that goal and we invite you to be part of that journey with us. Our curriculum from Early Years, Key Stage 1 – 5 is rich and offers many routes for students to follow. With a focus on literacy and numeracy, we ensure that students are equipped with the essential skills to become independent learners and motivated individuals.

Our modern learning environment is exceptional, having benefitted from a generous investment, which has enabled the school to provide excellent sports facilities, impressive science facilities, an extensive library and a learning resource centre.

At BICC we believe that the teaching approach and the teacher/student relationship play a major role in the way students perceive education and construct an attitude towards learning. It is our goal to make both teachers and students feel that they belong to the BICC family where all members are striving to assist each student to achieve their full potential academically, emotionally and physically. To that end our teaching philosophy endeavours to foster the following aspects.

By opening space for debates and questioning, students will be able to explore new frontiers and challenge boundaries in order to extract information. This helps build innovative and out of the box modes of thinking and approaches to life queries. With all the technological advancement the world is witnessing, global exposure has become a must. We at BICC believe that students should learn how to understand, tolerate and accept “the Other” even in the case of disagreement. BICC will be keen on providing the students with the option of learning a second language fluently.
