History

The Casablanca school had 524 students in 2014, when it opened, with its initial campus in Dar Bouazza. Its enrollment was above projections.[3] By 2015 enrollment was up to 528 students, with 22% of the students being Belgian. That year, there were 42 Belgian and 23 Moroccan teachers. The new secondary campus for the Casablanca school was scheduled to open in 2017.[4]

The Rabat campus was scheduled to open in 2018.[4] Groundbreaking occurred in January 2017. It opened the following year with 250 students.[5]

Campuses

The Tamaris campus is about 9 kilometres (5.6 mi) from the Morocco Mall.[6]

Initial testing versions appeared helpful and were being considered for release, but the project was shut down after its computation began to take up a large amount of server tick time even when not used.
