Our school
As one of the most prestigious international schools in Cairo, MBIS has been
delivering the best in British international education for almost ‎30 years.
MBIS serves a truly international, English-speaking body with over ‎61
nationalities represented. MBIS resides on purpose-built premises, combining
modern and Arabic architecture, in leafy Maadi, historically an ex-pat area of
Cairo. Our school site incorporates a fully equipped theatre, indoor swimming
pool and athletics track as well as specialist classrooms, labs, library, and
music rooms. Our not-for-profit school has developed a vibrant and welcoming
environment that provides a world-class British education for every pupil who
enters its doors. The core purpose of MBIS is to ensure that every single
pupil develops themselves to the best of their ability through the support and
challenge offered by our inclusive school environment. We cater for students
from ‎3 up to and including IGCSE and are busy with plans to expand our
provision post ‎16 due to demand. We are fortunate to work with a lovely,
supportive school community and class sizes are far below what might be
expected in the UK. Our results are also significantly above UK averages at
all levels.
In ‎2021 we were rated 'Excellent' in all categories by our BSO inspection,
and we are proud to also be members of several international and British
school organisations. The school enjoys the patronage of the British Embassy
and is a member of the British Schools in the Middle East (BSME). MBIS is
fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young
people, and adults. All applicants must be willing to undergo child protection
screening, including checks with past employers and Disclosure and Barring
Service checks and international equivalents.

Cairo is one of the world 's most renowned cities and contains everything
anyone might want. With an unrivalled history, culture and geography the city
also offers opportunities for so much more including excellent dining, sports,
theatre, modern malls and the opportunity to live in a thriving, exciting
city. The Gallup Law and Order ‎2019 report ranked Egypt as the 8th safest
country internationally and 2nd safest at the Middle East after the UAE.
Cairo also has a beautiful climate with a mild winter season and a hot dry
summer. Just a short journey also brings you to some of the best diving and
beach resorts in the world as well as culture in world heritage sites such as
those found in Luxor. Easy travel means that the city also provides a spring-
board to visit either the Middle East or Africa with little effort.
