Board of Directors

NCBIS is a non-selective, non-denominal international school serving Cairo’s international community and is the sole operational activity of the Heliopolis Society for Cultural and Social Care of English Speaking Foreigners (Registration 2643 on Sept 15th 1979) otherwise known as ‘The Society’. The NCBIS operates under the auspices of the Society, which in turn is an independent, non-profit organisation registered with the Ministry of Social Affairs of Egypt.

NCBIS has a Board of Directors made up entirely of NCBIS parents (society members) and ensures a close connection to the school community. Each year at the Annual General Meeting the elections for the Board are normally held and voted upon by the school community*. All parents are welcome to run for election and offer many amazing and useful areas of expertise to help the school continue to improve and grow.

The Board of Directors oversees the strategic direction and financial viability of the school while taking a support role for the Senior Management Group.
