Narmer American College

Where a detail is not officially published we mark it clearly rather than guess. Always confirm current figures with the school.

Curriculum and academics

Narmer American College is unusual in Cairo for running three pathways side by side. Its main American track, from pre kindergarten to grade 12, is aligned to College Board standards and offers Advanced Placement courses in the senior years. A British section prepares pupils for Cambridge IGCSE, and the school is also an authorised International Baccalaureate World School offering the Diploma.

Teaching is in English throughout, and the breadth of qualifications lets families pick the route that best fits a child and their intended university system. That flexibility, from AP to IGCSE to the IB Diploma, is the school's defining feature.

Families choose Narmer for that choice of recognised pathways on one campus. Read our pillar guide to the American curriculum and use our Cairo city guide to compare it with the other American schools in Cairo.

Narmer American College fees

Narmer American College fees sit in the mid to premium band for Cairo. We describe the band rather than fix the page to a single number, because the school revises its schedule each year and bills differently by pathway and stage. Parents should plan for the surrounding components as well as tuition.

• Registration fees: one off charges applied at enrolment.
• Annual tuition: billed per year and rising through the grades.
• Examination fees: Advanced Placement, IGCSE and IB Diploma entry charges in the upper years.
• Extras: transport, meals, uniform, trips and activities.

For the citywide picture our guide to international school fees in Cairo divides schools into value, mid and premium tiers, and you can compare bands by stage in our Cairo primary fees and Cairo secondary fees breakdowns. Confirm the current figures with the school.

Admissions

The main intake follows the academic year, with applications reviewed ahead of the start of term and mid year entry where a grade has space. Admission runs through an application, previous school reports and an age appropriate assessment, with families choosing between the American, British and IB pathways as part of the process.

Entry into the senior years considers prior attainment given the demands of Advanced Placement and the IB Diploma, and the school encourages families to visit the New Cairo campus before applying. Contact the admissions office to confirm availability, the right pathway and any English language support.
