Thank you for considering ACS International Schools (ACS) as
the educational home for your family. If you are like most of
our families, you have high expectations for your children, and
are actively engaged in their school life. You may be looking
for a school which will support them academically while treating
them as individuals; helping them through this transition while
instilling the skills and knowledge to make future transitions
gracefully. Each year at ACS, we provide an educational home for
more than 2,500 students from over fifty countries.
Academically, our results on standardised tests compare very
favourably, placing us amongst the best suburban and independent
schools worldwide. Our graduates' achievements in International
Baccalaureate (IB) and Advanced Placement (AP) exams earn them
places to the very best universities. Our accreditations by the
New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEAS&C),
and the Independent Schools Joint Council, and membership in the
European Council of International Schools (ECIS) ensures that
our standards, practices and principles are regularly scrutinised
by accrediting organisations in both the US and the UK. Like you,
we have high expectations for your children, and such self-examination
ensures that your children will have been given the best possible
academic preparation for their next educational transition.
As faculty members, we are actively engaged in continuous learning.
Education experts are regularly brought to our schools for workshops.
In addition, each faculty member has time and resources allocated
for professional development, and is encouraged to travel to international
seminars and conferences. This commitment to consciousness-raising
and forward thinking transmits vibrancy and greater awareness
of learning processes directly into your child's classroom.
Beyond the academic programme, we also look to support your family
through what is bound to be a major relocation. Our parents, peer
counselors, school counselors, faculty members, and administrators
are all looking forward to welcoming you to our schools, whether
through a greeting telephone call, on one of our many summer picnics
or orientations. Our community is ready to reach out and help
– whether you need suggestions for a new doctor or dentist,
or where to find home country contacts.
As our families become part of our international community, our
students quickly realise their responsibilities towards the world
community around them. Whether raising money for Guide Dogs for
the Blind, earthquake victims in India or building a library at
the Shituwa School in Namibia, or reaching out to welcome a newcomer,
respect and care are part of our ethos.
Each of our three schools has a distinct personality, and an
individual learning environment. Each is built around a stately
mansion enhanced by purpose-built school facilities. Our suburban
Greater London locations in Cobham, Egham and Hillingdon offer
you and your family the advantage of a leafy neighbourhood set
within easy commuting distance of London. We cordially invite
you to explore each of our communities for your family.
