"We have had long years of collaboration together since I've started 25 years ago. We have worked together with the British Council on everything from our registrations, our support, and our leadership programmes which all come from the British Council. The British Council is the main source of information we rely on to develop year after year. From liaising between the schools in Egypt and the exam boards, we're depending on the British Council all the time."
