A-Levels are a rigorous, globally recognised qualification that prepares students for university in the UK and beyond. Students typically take three or four subjects in depth over two years, completing AS content in the first year and full A2 papers in the second.
In Cairo, A-Levels are part of the British system offered by international and language schools across the city, from long-established schools in Heliopolis, Maadi and Zamalek to newer campuses in New Cairo and Sheikh Zayed. Students usually complete IGCSEs or O Levels first, then add AS and A-Level subjects, and the whole set counts towards the certificate equivalency used for Egyptian university admission. Most schools follow Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel International, with some on OxfordAQA International. Our tutoring supports students at these schools and those sitting as private candidates, with plans built around both the exam board and the subjects a student needs.
With tailored learning plans built around each school's syllabus and exam series, we help students across Cairo reach their full potential in the A-Level curriculum.
Schools we have supported in Cairo
So far, we have helped students achieve A*/A grades in their chosen subjects from the following schools in Cairo:
- Cairo English School
- Malvern College Egypt
- New Cairo British International School
- El Alsson British International School
- British Ramses School
- Manchester International School
British-system schools: Cairo has a large number of schools offering IGCSE and A-Level, from long-established schools in the city to newer campuses in New Cairo and Sheikh Zayed, most on Cambridge or Edexcel International.
Students building their equivalency: Students planning which IGCSE, AS and A-Level subjects to sit so they meet the eight-subject equivalency rule and the subject requirements for faculties such as medicine and engineering.
Families planning to study abroad: Families aiming at UK, European or North American universities who need grades and subject depth that stand up internationally.
Private candidates: Students entering exams independently through the British Council in Cairo, including homeschoolers, retakers and students adding a subject to complete their equivalency.
A-Levels are the standard entry route to UK universities and are recognised for admission worldwide. In Egypt, British-system certificates are converted by the equivalency committee into a score used for public university admission, and they are accepted by private and international universities including the American University in Cairo, the British University in Egypt and the German University in Cairo. That gives families one qualification that works for both local and overseas applications.
- Direct UCAS route to UK universities
- Counted towards Egyptian certificate equivalency for public university admission
- Accepted by AUC, the British University in Egypt and the German University in Cairo
- AS and A-Level subjects both count, giving flexibility in how students build their subject set
Why students in Cairo choose us
Cairo has a very large private tutoring market, but much of it runs through crowded group centres focused on drilling past papers at IGCSE level. Specialist A-Level tutors, particularly for the sciences and maths that medicine and engineering faculties require, are much harder to find, and few can also advise on how AS and A-Level choices affect a student's equivalency. Families often end up choosing between a crowded group class and going without specialist support altogether.

I tutor English at A level and IGCSE, across both Cambridge and Pearson Edexcel. One to one, built around what the mark scheme actually rewards rather than what students assume it does.Tell me where you are and where you want to be, and we'll work out how to get there.

I'm a Business, Economics and Accounting teacher with over six years' experience preparing students for A Level, IGCSE and O Level exams. I teach to the Cambridge (CIE) and Pearson Edexcel specifications, so lessons are built around what each mark scheme rewards: precise definitions, application to the case, and well-supported evaluation.
At A Level, I focus on the skills that lift grades: structuring extended essay answers, applying theory to case-study data, and handling calculation-heavy Accounting questions. At IGCSE and O Level, I build secure foundations so students go into their exams confident.
My lessons are interactive and exam-focused. We work through past papers, examiner reports and mark schemes, and I connect every concept to real business examples so it sticks. Students leave with better grades and the confidence to think analytically and apply their knowledge independently.

Which boards and exam sessions
British-system schools in Cairo mostly follow Cambridge International and Pearson Edexcel International, with some on OxfordAQA International. The international boards run more than one series a year, so students can sit, or resit, without waiting a full year, which matters when an equivalency deadline is approaching. Your exact papers and dates depend on the board your school has chosen.
- Cambridge International: Two exam series each year: May/June (results in August) and October/November (results in January).
- Edexcel and OxfordAQA International: Edexcel International runs January, May/June and October/November series, and OxfordAQA International runs January and May/June series. Both are modular, so students can spread units across sittings.
Exam centres and private candidate registration
In Cairo, as across Egypt, the British Council administers school exams on behalf of Cambridge, Pearson Edexcel and OxfordAQA, and most students sit through their own school. Those studying independently, resitting after leaving school, or adding a subject to complete their equivalency can register as private candidates through the British Council. Registration deadlines fall several months before each series, and exam fees are paid to the centre, not to us.
- Through your school: Students at a British-system school are entered by the school. Nothing to arrange.
- As a private candidate: Register through the British Council in Egypt, which handles private entries for all three international boards. Keep every statement of results, as you will need them for your equivalency file.
- Registration deadlines: Entry deadlines close several months ahead of each series. Plan early, especially for resits or if you are completing subjects ahead of university applications.

FAQs
We have answers to your most frequently asked questions. Anything not answered here, please reach out to our team.
Yes. In Cairo, British-system students almost always take IGCSE, and those grades count towards the equivalency, so IGCSE tutoring is by far the more common request. We also offer GCSE tutoring for families following UK specifications. Both start from $50 USD (£38) per hour, with tutors matched to your board from the first lesson. Professional tutors (qualified teachers and examiners) cost from $75 USD (£56) per hour.
A-Level and AS tutoring starts at $60 USD (£45) per hour with an academic tutor. We charge in US dollars at one worldwide rate, so Cairo families see the same prices as anyone else. Longer packages are discounted by 5% for 10 to 20 hours, 10% for 21 to 30, 12.5% for 31 to 50 and 15% for 51 hours or more. Pay as you go is invoiced after each lesson, and there are no lock-in contracts. Professional tutors (qualified teachers and examiners) cost from $85 USD (£64) per hour. Details on our pricing page.
Late cancellations and no-shows are charged at half the lesson fee. That applies if you cancel less than one hour before the start time, or don't turn up. You can still change a session time whenever you need to, as long as you give your tutor notice.

Yes. In Cairo, as across Egypt, the British Council administers Cambridge, Pearson Edexcel and OxfordAQA exams and handles private entries for all three, so independent students, resitters and those completing their equivalency register there. Keep every statement of results for your equivalency file. Deadlines close several months before each series, and exam fees go to the centre. See A-Level resits and retakes.
Cambridge International runs May/June and October/November series, with results in August and January. Edexcel International offers January, May/June and October/November, and OxfordAQA International runs January and May/June; both are modular, so units can be spread across sittings. Multiple series help when an equivalency deadline is approaching. Confirm entry deadlines with your school or centre. See our OxfordAQA page.
