International British School of Alexandria (IBSA) was founded to provide the very best British style of education for the children of Alexandria. It is an adapted curriculum based upon the framework provided by the National Curriculum for England and Wales and modified to include the richness of cultural experiences available in Egypt whilst maintaining the discipline and high standards of achievement synonymous with the British Curriculum. Our pupils come from both the Egyptian and expatriate families of our city and we provide an education that is broad, international and relevant to the times in which we live.
Our mission is to educate all students to achieve their individual potential as well-rounded, lifelong learners and empower them to become compassionate, confident, and responsible global citizens.
We will inspire and guide students to become outstanding citizens of the world, with high aspirations and the drive and determination to advance themselves, for the benefit of others, their community, and their country.
Here at the IBSA, our culturally rich curriculum focuses on, acquiring knowledge, skills, abilities, and character development for the future. This is achieved through a curriculum that facilitates a holistic approach to learning through a breadth of experience combined with a depth of study. It aims to develop the students’ confidence, skills and attributes that will enable them to live happy, healthy, and successful lives as global citizens in the 21st century. Our school vision and mission encapsulate our aims for the students. Here you will find some of our key philosophies that underpin our ideals.
