Top 7 A Level Schools in Cairo
This guide is written by Tutopiya’s education experts to help families compare A Level options.
Cairo has a wide range of international and language schools, many of which offer Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel A Levels beyond IGCSE/GCSE. This guide highlights those A Level routes and deliberately excludes full IB-only and American-only schools, even when they are popular.
How this list is ranked (and what “A Level results data” really means)
When comparing A Level options in Cairo, helpful datapoints include:
- A*/A and A*/A/B rates over recent exam series
- Subject breadth, particularly in STEM and Business/Economics
- Number of entries per subject and cohort size
- University destinations in Egypt, the UK, and abroad
- Accreditation with and track record under Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel
Where detailed data is limited, parents rely on reputation, inspection reports, and exam-support structures.
