The British educational system is globally acknowledged for promoting high academic standards through a hands-on teaching and learning approach. It is recognized as a valid university entrance qualification by all Egyptian universities, both public and private, as well as by the majority of institutions worldwide.
Parents and guardians often face uncertainty when choosing the most suitable educational system for their child. Even when a decision is made regarding the system itself, families frequently remain concerned about which school will deliver the highest quality of education.
- Summative assessments are tailored in the UK and graded in the UK.
- Formative assessments do not have any bearing on the end of year results of our children. They are simply in place as performance indicators so that we can adequately guide their instruction.
But, this is the case in all British schools. So, how do you know where to enroll your child? It’s simple, really. Ask the schools to talk to you about their data disaggregation and the results of their students’ test scores.
At TMS-British, students not only score an A* in multiple subject areas, but over 50% of our currently enrolled students and alumni, continually score(d) an A* in all their subject areas.
TMS-British is a leading contender of quality British education in El Delta. It’s been our pleasure to form partnerships with our students and their families. The spirit of success and celebration has been a gift that we have continually received in the contending scores of our highly skilled students.
Textbooks serve as the vessels that carry targeted knowledge to students. The dream of the future, through the eyes of adolescents, has been explored by a number of different researchers. While there are many variances in their methodologies, locations and samples, they uncover a considerable number of recurring themes. A close examination of these research studies indicate that, for the most part, children’s views are structured around elements of social and personal identity, material development, career, and educational advancement. These themes are taken into consideration by the academic deans, here at TMS-British, when it comes to the selection of student resources.
Textbooks are both the medium and the message. As such, we at TMS British, we ensure that all the textbooks we use are officially approved and endorsed by Cambridge, providing our students with trusted and high-quality learning resources.
The Primary Checkpoint stage (Year 6) and Lower Secondary Checkpoint stage (Year 8) curricula include three core subjects: English, Mathematics, and Science. All textbooks used for these subjects are officially recommended by Cambridge University. In addition to the Cambridge curriculum, students are required to study the Ministry of Education subjects—Arabic Language, Religion, and Social Studies—and must pass the corresponding national exams.
Throughout the academic year, students are expected to attend classes regularly. At the end of Years 6 and 8, students sit for the Cambridge Checkpoint assessments in the three core subjects. These assessments are provided by Cambridge International Examinations and serve as a benchmark for academic progress.
Upon completion of the Checkpoint exams in Years 6 and 8, students receive a Statement of Achievement issued by the school, along with a detailed score analysis for each subject, as provided by Cambridge University.
Exams are offered by Cambridge, and cover five subjects at the Core level, English as a Second Language, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry & Physics. Students are also required to study the Ministry of Education curriculum for Arabic Language, Religion & Social Studies & pass the Ministry exams.
Students are required to attend their classes on regular basis during the academic year. The passing grade is grade C which is equivalent to 100% to grade G which is the lowest & this is equivalent to 50% in the Egyptian National system. Students should pass the five IGCSE subjects in order to be promoted to Grade 10.
In year 10, all students have to study four IGCSE main subjects: English Second Language, Math, Chemistry, Biology or Physics. Students may choose a fifth subject if they want as this is optional. In addition to this, students have to pass the Arabic Language, Religion & Social Studies of the Egyptian Curriculum.
In year 11 & 12, students choose their subjects as per the requirement of the faculty they will join later. Students in these two years have also to pass the Arabic Language and Religion of the Egyptian Curriculum.
