The Ma’ady Experimental SchoolMa’ady, Cairo
One of our participants, Shawky Allam, invited us to the school where he teaches, the Ma’ady Experimental School, which
houses 1300 students from first to last year, primary through secondary school. Experimental schools are public schools
at which some new ideas are tried out. They often have better funding and better teachers than regular public
schools. Ma’ady is an upper middle class area of Cairo.

I visited classes in the Prep (Middle School age) and Secondary (High School age) sections. Their English was excellent.
Children in all Egyptian schools start English at age 6.

The students were welcoming and involved, and they asked excellent questions.
