The Nefertari International School Graduate Profile defines Empowered, Engaged, and Authentic learners who are well educated, self-confident and able to communicate effectively. Students are encouraged to contribute to their community, build positive relationships, and respect diversity, working collaboratively and showing integrity. Intercultural education and global citizenship are embedded in the curriculum, with local and international activities and events, student and teacher exchanges with Denmark and Germany, MUN and community service. This framework fosters empathy, collaboration and global awareness across subjects and activities.
Mental wellbeing is supported through a designated safeguarding lead (the School Counselor) and a safeguarding team. The policy includes assemblies addressing bullying and promoting positive behavior, a structured reporting system, and measures to maintain a safe environment (including CCTV, bus matrons, and staff duties). Staff are trained to respond to concerns, and safeguarding procedures emphasize confidentiality and timely action. Online safety and digital citizenship are highlighted as part of safeguarding and student welfare.
NIS provides a safe and secure environment for staff and students, with adherence to Egyptian Child Law no. 12 (1996, amended 2014). The policy aims to reduce abuse risk, protect pupils, and ensure appropriate procedures are in place for safety. A Child Protection & Safeguarding Policy establishes a Child Safeguarding Management Team (including the Designated Safeguarding Lead/School Counselor, the principal, a governing body representative, HR, a legal advisor, and a community representative). The policy defines abuse and outlines procedures for reporting and handling allegations, as well as rules for visitors, staff and student privacy. Online safety and digital risk management are integral to safeguarding.
