Hi and welcome to the forum.

Cairo is about 500km from Hurghada.

Have you looked at the El Gouna International School http://www.elgounaschool.com/cma/cms...cat=59#Szene_1

The fees dont seem too bad see http://www.elgounaschool.com/cma/cms...ient=1#Szene_1

There is a German school around the corner from here and I hear the school is very good but not as expensive as El Gouna International.

Can't for the life of me remember the name but maybe someone on here can help me out.

There are also a couple following the english curric in Hadaba which are more reasonable

I've found another school in Hurghada called the French School of Hurghada.

Prices seem much cheaper then El Gouna, 1700 euros for first child and 1200 for each subsequent child.

no we are seriously considering it, my oh is egyptian and we have bought a villa in solmenia golf on outskirts of cairo (almost ready ) 2 years late completion of villa, and we have serious concerns re moving to cairo ie healthcare, number of road traffic incidents and schools of course british cairo schoolis relocating to 6th October not too far from villa but fees are approx £6 k per child wondering if hurgarda can offer us better quality of life and traffic not as mad as cairo - but can still easy fly to cairo and we can all travel during holidays
which is why I am asking about schools as major point for us and seems so many british happy with life in Hurgarda so maybe it offers something that cairo doesnt

El Gouna will take about a 20 minute drive. There is a school bus that stops near Regency every morning.

Hi Scooby,

I have a friend who teaches in the International school in El Gouna and travels there from Hurghada every day. She's been happy for me to give her phone number to another forum member and I could ask her to do the same for you. She also knows a lot about the other schools in the area too. Like you (and me) her OH is Egyptian too. Seems there's a lot of us about
