Bilady, Bilady, Bilady
( "My homeland, my homeland, my homeland") is the modern national anthem of Egypt, composed by Sayed Darwish and written by Mohamed Yunis El Qadi. It was adopted in 1979. History The lyrics were written by Mohammed Younis El Qady. Sayed Darwish composed the music and maintained close ties with early leaders of the national movement for independence in Egypt, such as Mustafa Kamil Pasha, Mustafa Kamel. The chorus derived from one of Kamel's most famous Egyptian nationalist speeches. Egypt's first national anthem dates back to 1869 when a royal anthem was composed to honor the monarch. It is unclear how long this anthem was in use. Although the monarchy was deposed in 1952, the anthem was used as part of the anthem of the United Arab Republic with Syria in 1958. |

These fees can range from 210 to 520 Egyptian pounds (approximately US$5–10) per year, though they are waived for some low-income students.

The basic education stage serves children aged 4 to 14 and includes kindergarten for two years, followed by primary school for six years and preparatory school for three years. This is followed by the secondary education stage, which lasts three years for students aged 15 to 17, leading to the tertiary level.
