Why Study At Regent International School?
RIS is following the National Curriculum of England, which is one of most coveted and accepted school curricula worldwide. This curriculum is supported by a strong research-driven syllabus in all major subjects and gives our pupils the ability to acquire a resilient educational foundation as well as the opportunity to pursue a higher education and career of their choice.
Early Years at RIS
Our Early Years programme follows an international, play-based curriculum designed to spark curiosity, build confidence, and lay a strong foundation for lifelong learning. It combines the best practices from global early childhood models, preparing children to transition smoothly into either the British or American curriculum pathways.
Children learn through purposeful play, guided exploration, and hands-on experiences that develop essential early literacy, numeracy, and social skills. The environment is warm, nurturing and language-rich, with a strong focus on communication, creativity, and personal development.
Our approach supports the whole child — emotionally, socially, physically and intellectually — helping them become independent, motivated learners. Through carefully structured activities, children begin to make connections across subjects, explore their interests and build the skills they need to thrive in their next stage of education.
The British Curriculum
The British Curriculum is one of the most respected and widely recognised education systems in the world. Rooted in high academic standards, it offers a structured and balanced approach to learning, with a strong focus on core subjects such as English, Mathematics and Science.
What makes the British Curriculum unique is its emphasis on critical thinking, creativity, and personal responsibility. Students are encouraged to ask questions, explore ideas and apply their knowledge in meaningful ways. Assessment is ongoing and purposeful, helping students understand their progress and build confidence in their learning.
Character development is at the heart of the British system. Alongside academic achievement, the curriculum promotes values such as respect, integrity, resilience and teamwork — preparing students not just for exams, but for life.
The British Curriculum leads to internationally recognised qualifications such as the IGCSE and A-Level, opening doors to top universities around the world.
The American Curriculum
The American Curriculum is a flexible, student-centred education system that focuses on developing the whole child — academically, socially, and emotionally. It emphasises creativity, collaboration, and independent thinking, helping students build the skills they need for success in school, university, and life.
One of the key strengths of the American Curriculum is its broad and balanced structure. Students study a wide range of subjects including English, Maths, Science, Social Studies, and the Arts, with opportunities to explore personal interests through electives and enrichment programmes.
Assessment is continuous and varied, supporting different learning styles and encouraging students to reflect on their progress. A strong focus is placed on inquiry-based learning, problem-solving, and real-world application.
The American Curriculum promotes values such as respect, responsibility, perseverance, and citizenship. It prepares students to graduate with a High School Diploma and pursue further education in leading universities around the world.
Egyptian Ministry Curriculum
At RIS, we proudly deliver the Egyptian Ministry curriculum in Arabic, Religion, and Egyptian Social Studies as part of our core programme. These subjects play a vital role in helping students understand and appreciate their heritage, values, and cultural identity.
We believe that a strong connection to one’s roots builds confidence and a sense of belonging. Through the Ministry curriculum, students develop a deep understanding of Egyptian history, traditions, and Islamic or Christian principles, fostering respect, tolerance, and moral responsibility.
These lessons complement our international curriculum, creating well-rounded learners who are proud of their identity and prepared to engage confidently with the wider world.
