Cairo English School Reviews (9)

Horrible school, children tortured in high school by unprofessional teachers. Teacher turn over every term is very high. Just a beautiful campus on the outside and a prison for children on the inside. Teachers are not qualified to teach IG subjects. Management is terrible. Lots of students transfer in high school.

An amazing school where teachers, mostly from the UK are supportive and excellent practitioners. Very happy with the progress my child is making.

The school could be amazing if it were not for the management. They need to focus on the children and employees (mental well-being). Staff turnover is appalling. It states British Curriculum is taught my children have been in a UK school and this couldn’t be further from the curriculum taught there. Facilities could be amazing but just aren’t used to there full potential unless it is to show off to new parents/visitors etc. It is such a shame as this school could have so much potential if in the correct hands and less time tending to the gardens and more focus on children.

The school is absolutely terrible for high school education. This is my experience as a student in this school. I transferred in Grade 11 hoping to find a better education to pursue the IB program and I was completely and utterly disappointed. Most of the teachers had no idea that the IB had a syllabus and were absolutely negligent for the entire 2 years. I will not state names for confidentiality but subjects like French and Math were a train wreck, no practice was made for these subjects, lessons were rushed and the syllabus was finished 2 weeks before the exam, leaving no room for practice. I can't emphasize how badly the syllabuses were rushed or neglected for major subjects like Math and Psychology, especially at the end of the year. For most subjects, I ended up taking private lessons outside the school or self-studying. The school is absolutely not flexible with taking criticism. English teachers were very negligent and did not provide us, the students with any practice for exams. This also applies to A-level students, who also expressed major criticism for the academic quality provided by the school If you are looking for qualified teachers and proper academic quality for high school education, I would recommend Al Hayyah Academy or New Village school, I completely regret not going there as the academic quality would have differed drastically. Under any circumstances if you are a parent DO NOT enroll your children in this school, it is a very poor academic environment for high school.
