The New Cairo British International School (NCBIS) was established in 1978 by a group of parents, most of whom, were connected with the World Health Organisation (WHO). The school has operated since that time as a non-profit organisation under the auspices of the Heliopolis Society for the Cultural and Social Care of English Speaking Foreigners (‘The Society’), and is managed through a Board of Directors elected from amongst the parent community.

The school itself operates as a non profit, co-educational international school with a vision to prepare students from the ages of 3 to 18 years of age for the challenges that they will face as citizens of the 21st Century.
