In our Middle and High school, you can expect an Education that:
- Fosters a diverse, multifaceted worldview
- Motivates modern solutions to emerging and 21st century problems
- Develops the values of global citizenship, equality, human rights and diversity
- Provides standards and outcomes-based assessments which are rigorous enough to cause the standard university entry exam (such as an SAT) to be waived for our graduates
- Employs qualified and experienced educators working to the Canadian standards of instruction and assessment
- Sustains an ethos of community, inclusion and achievement
- Continues the elementary trajectory of focusing on achievement in literacy and numeracy
High School Assessing and Reporting
- Mid-term exams in year long courses (Ex. English Language Arts).
- Final exams in semester long courses.
- 2 semesters.
- Each semester has the following:
A – An Interim report, to give parents a sense of how students are starting off (a few weeks into each semester)
B – A Mid Term report, with assessment data, attendance information, and comments on progress as well as learning behaviors.
C – A Final Report, with the same structure as the Mid Term report but which includes final course information and details. - Students will also complete the same Arabic ministry exams at the same ages as any other school in Egypt.
- Mid Term or Final exams are held in the last weeks of January and Final exams on the second or third week of June.
- Student progress is updated and reported to parents regularly through the Engage platform.
