Lycée Français du Caire - New Cairo

The school is committed to fostering autonomy, responsibility, respect, and tolerance among its students. It emphasizes the development of intellectual reflection, observation, experimentation, and creativity, while aiming to help students affirm and flourish in their personalities. The institution also promotes civic engagement through initiatives like first-aid training for staff and humanitarian projects.

The school offers a French curriculum homologated by the French Ministry of National Education, covering stages from preschool (petite section) to the final year of lycée. The primary school is organized into three cycles: Cycle 1 (maternelle), Cycle 2 (CP to CE2), and Cycle 3 (CM1 to 6e). Students are introduced to English and Arabic as modern languages from the preschool level, and the curriculum includes arts, physical education, and moral and civic instruction.

The school implements an inclusive education policy and provides academic support through 'activités pédagogiques complémentaires' (AP) and remedial stages for students in the elementary school. These measures are designed to help students master the common core of knowledge, skills, and culture, ensuring progression according to defined program objectives.

The school manages admissions across its four sites. Prospective families can access information regarding registration procedures, tuition fees, and financial regulations through the school's website, which also provides a dedicated online payment portal for school fees.

The school operates on a structured academic calendar, with versions available for download for the 2025-2026 and 2026-2027 school years. The calendar is subject to updates regarding holidays and operational adjustments, which are communicated to families by the school administration.

The school operates across four distinct sites in Cairo: Mearag, Maadi, New Cairo, and Zamalek. The Mearag site features a theater used for school events and competitions, as well as a Fab Lab equipped with 3D printers and laser cutting technology. The school also provides infrastructure for student health, safety, and catering services across its locations.

Students participate in a variety of clubs and associations, including the 'Mission Alizés' humanitarian group, a school choir, and student-led newspapers. The school also hosts an audiovisual workshop and a Fab Lab, where students engage in digital creation, 3D printing, and laser cutting projects.
