Preparatory School

Welcome Message from the Head 

At MILS, we provide high-quality education. The preparatory stage is critical for students because, as teenagers, they need to be inspired to discover themselves and maintain discipline.

My mission is to always be dedicated to creating a positive and welcoming school environment where students can express themselves, develop their personalities, and achieve academic excellence. I believe that advocating for students, parents, and faculty ensures that our main strategic goals are met in the best interests of all. Our school policies, grounded in our core values, serve as a roadmap for us all to follow to achieve the main strategic goals of GEMS/EEP and enjoy our educational journey together

Curriculum Overview

Our curriculum is the Egyptian National Curriculum, and we follow the framework that has been put by the Ministry of Education. This curriculum is multidisciplinary and emphasises the unity of all subjects avoiding repetition. At MILS we teach our students Math, Science, History, Geography, Art and Music, Arabic and Social Studies amongst other subjects as well. Being a language school, we put a huge emphasis on English language to successfully accomplish our learning objectives.

Preparatory Section

Middle school is a very critical phase in a young teenager’s social and emotional development. A deeper understanding is required from the educator’s part in collaboration with the parents and the students themselves. At MILS, we embrace our students for what they are and work on how we want them to be. We promote engagement with peers, teachers and heads through different competitions, team projects, entertainment and field trips. Participating in community service projects through paying visits to hospitals and orphanages and special needs organisations and gathering donations, enhances their citizenship and cultural awareness. We take the well-being of our students to our heart and believe that it ensures smooth academic progress.

The Egyptian National Curriculum is a rich and broad curriculum which requires experienced, qualified teachers to deliver efficiently.  English and French high level instruction covers all aspects of the language including literature study; Drama, Novel and Poetry in depth. Students are now expected to be fluent in foreign languages in addition to their own mother tongue. The differentiation now between the three branches of General Science is evident. Similarly, the Social Studies curriculum becomes more elaborate. Students at this phase can identify their preferences and make plans for their future studies in Secondary Stage.  By the end of this stage students sit for ministerial exams which are set and marked externally.
