Bedayia International Schools in Cairo is a candidate of the Northwest Association of Accredited Schools (NAAS) which is one of the six acknowledged accreditation agencies in the United States of America. NAAS accredits distance education, elementary, foreign nation, K-12, middle level, post secondary non degree granting, residential, special purpose, supplementary education, and travel education schools.
We are expected to submit our first self-study in 2010 and could be visited by an accreditation team in March, 2011choo.
Accreditation is affirmation by professional peer evaluators that: ✔ A school is what it says it is ✔ The school works in accordance with internationally accepted criteria ✔ The school is committed to continuous improvement
Accreditation requires continual self-evaluation, setting action plans for improvement and periodic external review and advice.
