Cairo - School Report Question and Answers

Are the admissions and placement procedures clearly stated to prospective families, either on the school website or through other means of communication?

We applied for admission while already in Cairo (attended preschool locally). In January they did an Open House and tour. The application process was fairly extensive, but clear. We submitted paperwork (including letters/info from preschool) and then had a parent interview and then in late April our rising kindergartner had an assessment--they watched them play together and then pulled them 1:1 for assessments. It is a bit harder if you are overseas during the application, but people make it work. The website has clear steps for applying. - Feb 2020
