Welcome Message from

Head of Kent College Canterbury

Mr. Mark Turnbull

Hello. My name is Mark Turnbull and I'm the Headmaster here at Kent College, Canterbury.
I want to welcome you all into the family of schools that now make up Kent College. We have a history that stretches back over 135 years, and in that time, we have developed a reputation for excellence in education.
We are regularly ranked as one of the top IB schools in the UK, and our A level results are also excellent.

This year, we have sent children to the top universities across the UK, including Oxford and Cambridge and Russell group institutions, as well as universities across the world. At the heart of a Kent College education is the individual and valuing who they are to give them the confidence to embrace all the opportunities to learn and thrive at school. All Kent College schools are founded on the shared values of integrity, respect and tolerance. This means that we're always true to our shared aims, that we welcome people of all abilities and all backgrounds, and we continue to hold a respect for ourselves, for each other, and, just as importantly, the world in which we're growing up. We very much hope that in the years ahead, Kent College West Cairo, will grow with Kent College Canterbury and Kent College Dubai to share the learning opportunities for all our children.

I very much hope that in that time, I will have the chance to meet you in person as well.

Mr. Robin Silk

As part of the prestigious Kent College family, rooted in over 135 years of educational excellence from our founding school in Canterbury, we are proud to uphold the values that define all Kent College schools: Respect, Openness, Acting Justly, Kindness, Ambition, Resilience, Humility, and Curiosity. These principles are not simply words on a wall- they guide every aspect of school life and help our students grow into compassionate, confident, and capable individuals.

At Kent College West Cairo, we believe that outstanding behaviour is the foundation of a thriving learning environment. When students show respect for themselves, their peers, and their teachers, they create a community where everyone can flourish. We expect all students to uphold the highest standards of conduct, kindness, and responsibility- values that shape not only a positive school culture but also a strong moral character for life.

Equally, we place great emphasis on a culture of hard work and academic dedication. Success is never an accident; it is the result of consistent effort, intellectual curiosity, and resilience. Our students are encouraged to set ambitious goals, embrace challenges, and commit themselves fully to their studies. This commitment to academic excellence, combined with rich co-curricular opportunities, ensures that every learner is equipped with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
