Academic Ethos

Academic Ethos

At New Cairo British International School (NCBIS), we pride ourselves on providing a holistic education that places students at the centre of everything we do. Every student is valued, nurtured, and cared for, ensuring that they are happy, balanced, and enjoy their time at school. At NCBIS we follow the principles of High Performance Learning (HPL) which emphasises developing students’ cognitive abilities, character, and creative and critical thinking skills, as well as encouraging students to become independent learners, to take risks, and to persevere in order to achieve their full potential academically.

We are committed to providing an inclusive education that is intrinsically linked to success where achieving one’s potential is the norm and exceeding expectation is commonplace. We recognise and celebrate the diversity among our student body and endeavour to create an inclusive environment where every student feels valued and supported. We believe that every student has the ability to succeed academically and provide the necessary resources and support systems to ensure this happens for each and every child.

While academic achievement is highly valued at NCBIS, it does not solely define our academic ethos. NCBIS aims to provide an excellent learning environment for every child, an environment that fosters international mindedness, and produces global citizens who can make responsible and informed choices. Our commitment to a holistic education ensures that every child has the opportunity to develop, patience and understanding towards others, demonstrate clearly defined values, a diligent work ethic and leadership attributes that will be vital for our students as they take their place in an ever changing and challenging world.
