The Continental School of Cairo operates a three‑school campus on one site, comprising CIS (a British international school), CLS (an Egyptian National Curriculum school taught in English), and CSC (a British Special Education school). It serves pupils aged 4 to 17, with approximately 1,000 students across the three schools. The English‑medium curriculum follows the British National Curriculum, with core subjects English, Mathematics and Science and additional subjects including Arabic, History-Geography, Music, Computer Studies, Art and Craft, and Physical Education. Cambridge Secondary, Cambridge IGCSE, and Pearson BTEC Vocational qualifications are offered for older students. The school is licensed by the Egyptian Ministry of Education and authorized by UCLES to prepare students for IGCSE examinations. The campus features custom‑built classrooms with displays of student work, a dedicated Lower School Library, a health centre with a full‑time doctor, outdoor play areas and a shallow pool for younger students. Sports facilities include a football court, basketball and volleyball courts, and a swimming pool; teams compete regionally. An Autism Unit with tailored programmes and therapies supports diverse learners, and each student receives an Individual Learning Plan after a six‑week observation, discussed with parents.
