About Us
ACE COMPANY
Carleton is under the ACE school group, renowned for its demanding academic structure alongside other IB schools.
We prioritize not just academics but also extracurriculars and community service, molding our students into leaders and active community members.While celebrating and preserving Egypt’s rich traditions and culture, we also teach our students to value global cultures. Our focus isn’t just on academics; with dedicated character education and counselling, we nurture our students holistically.
Learner Profile
In our school, the learner profile serves as a foundational compass, guiding our students towards purposeful action. It instills a set of core values and characteristics that encourage students to not just be passive absorbers of knowledge, but proactive agents of change in their community. By emphasizing traits like being inquisitive, principled, and open-minded, our learner profile empowers students to identify areas of need, think critically about solutions, and initiate meaningful actions. This approach ensures that learning transcends the confines of the classroom, fostering a generation of young individuals who are not only well-informed but also socially responsible and action-oriented.
Who We Are
Vision
We aim to provide learners with a solid foundation upon which they can build their futures. Carleton graduates will excel in all fields, as confident, caring, open-minded, and knowledgeable members of the community, who hold on to their identities, adding their own spark of innovation, inspiration, and imagination to their thriving communities and the global society. Our learners will go on to develop, build, and help others in the community with values embedded in them; including gender equity, individual recognition, self- reflection, social awareness, civic responsibility, knowledge, and personal growth.
Mission
Our diverse, collaborative, and conceptual approach to learning, promotes the international mindedness, content knowledge, and skills of our learners who extend their learning beyond the written curriculum. We work to preserve the traditions, culture, and identity of our learners, whilst remaining open-minded and keeping a global outlook. Our campus provides our learners with plenty of opportunities for inquiry, giving them the space for growth.
