Dear Parents,
We are delighted about your interest in the kindergarten at Rahn Schools Cairo! Here is the admission procedure for the 2027/2028 school year.
18 October – 22 December 2026
Steps in the Admission Process
- Online application
- Invitation to a trial day, online payment and attendance at the trial day
- Parent interview with the kindergarten management
- Recommendation to the school management
- Notification of admission or rejection by the school management
1. Online Application
You can apply online for your son or daughter.
Required Age by 31 August 2027
| Level | Age |
|---|---|
| Nursery | 1–3 years |
| Pre-KG | 3–4 years |
| KG1 | 4–5 years |
| KG2 | 5–6 years |
2. Invitation to a Trial Day
The school office will invite your child to a trial day at our kindergarten approximately 10 days in advance. You will then have time to pay the fee online.
The registration fee for the trial day is EGP 5,000. Payment must reach us no later than 3 days before the trial day. Please send the payment receipt to the school office. This fee is non-refundable regardless of the trial day’s outcome.
The trial day usually runs from 08:30 to 12:00. Several children are invited on the same day so that each child can experience the group. We assess social skills, gross and fine motor skills, age-appropriate behaviour and language development.
3. Parent Interview with the Kindergarten Management
After the trial day, families without sibling children will receive a further invitation to a personal parent interview with the kindergarten management.
4. Recommendation to the School Management
The results of the trial day and the parent interview are submitted to the school management, which makes a recommendation for admission.
5. Notification of Admission or Rejection
Following the school management’s recommendation, you will receive notification of admission or rejection of your application.
