ITACC opened in 1997 as a division of Thebes Schools, which was established in 1984. It delivers American-style education in Cairo and prepares students for success at top universities in Egypt and around the world. ITACC holds Cognia accreditation for 20 years, reflecting adherence to international standards. The school provides coursework from Kindergarten through Grade 12. It is centrally located in Cairo for easy access from city and suburban areas.
ITACC describes itself as a community and a family, with a partnership among parents, students, teachers, staff and administration to support each student's success. The learning approach emphasizes interactive methods such as discussions, debates, teamwork and community service projects. Students participate in activities including swimming, singing, arts crafts, ball games, performing arts and visual arts, and benefit from facilities such as a clinic, transportation, uniforms, sports facilities, Art Island and a horse riding center. A commitment to curiosity and lifelong learning guides the school's ethos and its engagement with a diverse community.

Integrated Thebes American College in Cairo offers an American Diploma to students from Kindergarten through Grade 12, providing a 12-year program that culminates in college admissions worldwide. The school follows an American curriculum with Arabic, national education and religion taught as part of the timetable but not counted toward the final GPA, which is calculated on a 4.0 scale. Final grades combine traditional diploma components (40%) with ACT, EST or SAT results (60%), and core subjects are aligned with students' intended majors. The campus is centrally located in Cairo and houses a clinic, transportation services, a uniform program, extensive sports facilities and dedicated facilities such as Art Island and a horse riding center. ITACC operates under Cognia accreditation and emphasizes inquiry-based, student-centered learning through projects and presentations. Extracurriculars include swimming, singing, arts and crafts, ball games, performing arts and visual arts, along with community service and leadership activities for success in university life.
