Testimonials

I want to express my appreciation for all ISC-Cairo has done. For the first time, I feel that my child really likes going to school. He wakes up early and now fulfills his promise to his teacher by attending the morning assembly line and completing all assigned homework. I am really happy and I cannot believe that with a bit of encouragement he would change. Thank you all for your cooperation and for taking the time to listen and find a solution. Thank you so much and I wish you all the best.
ISC-Cairo parent - May 06, 2010

I don’t have to look far to know how successful the SABIS^® system is. My daughter, Sevan, graduated from ISC-Dubai in 2006 and she enrolled in McGill University at the age of 17, as a second-year student given her AP credits. She graduated in 2009, with first-class honors, from the computer science program, with a minor in philosophy - just two months short of her twentieth birthday. Currently, she is working on her master’s thesis after finishing all required coursework. All this and she is not yet 21! She was brought up in the Choueifat system which taught the students to not only excel but to be leaders.

I believe there are few places like the International School of Choueifat-Erbil in Kurdistan. I have enjoyed the international environment and the opportunity to work hard and immediately see the results. We are doing very important development work in this school, and it has been very satisfying for me personally to be part of the Iraqi nation-building on a different level.

ISC-Erbil Hosts Sports Tournament

ISC-Erbil Hosts Sports Tournament

The International School of Choueifat-Erbil proudly hosted its 1st Annual Sports Tournament for all its staff working for SABIS ® Managed Schools and SABIS ® University on Saturday, June 6th, 2009. Held on the ISC-Erbil campus, the event brought together staff from ISC-Erbil, Fakhir Mergasori International School, Sardam International School, and the SABIS ® University.

The one-day event attracted an audience of locals and students, as well as honorable spectators, most notably Mr. Taha Berwari, the Minister of Youth & Sports, who threw the jump ball to start the first basketball game.

In true athletic spirit, teams competed in soccer, volleyball, and basketball and showcased their skills and talents. In individual events, staff participated in swimming (men and women) and 1000m and 2000m running (men and women). Excitement reached its peak on and off the field during the finals as staff and school administrators cheered on their teams.

The tournament concluded with the distribution of trophies and medals by the Directors of the participating schools and the SABIS ® Representative in Iraq, Mr. Raed Mahmoud.

In this respect, Dr. Humaira Bokhari, ISC-Erbil Director, seized the opportunity to thank the staff for their participation and team spirit and the coordinators for providing a well-organized, entertaining atmosphere.

This has been another great success for the SABIS ® School Network in Kurdistan. Staff returned home with a store of memories, looking forward to next year’s tournament.

Through the active support of the Kurdistan Regional Government, SABIS ® schools in Kurdistan - Iraq, whether PPP or private, have been playing a major role in improving the standards of education in Iraq by preparing students to face the challenges that lie ahead.
