Suyufiyya Girls' School or al-Madrasa al-Suyufiyya was a school for girls in Egypt.
Founded in 1873, it was Egypt's first officially sponsored girls' school.
[1][2] It had the backing of Khedive Ismail's third wife, Jashem Afet Hanum.
[3] In the late 1870s it merged with another girls' school for poorer students, al-Qarabiyya, leading to a drop in enrollment as upper-class parents abandoned the school.
In 1889 the Ministry of Education tried to revive the school under the name al-Saniyya, but parents seem to have objected to mixing better-off and poorer students at the school.
