Welcome to ACS International Schools North American Office (NAO), established in 1996 to serve the needs of London-bound families from across the US and Canada.

The philosophy here supports the reason ACS was established over 40 years ago: to help families relocating internationally with school-age children, providing up-to-date information with a deeply personal touch. As a former award-winning teacher and expatriate American in London, I feel my living-abroad experience and professional qualifications help me help families make informed school-choice decisions.

In addition to working directly with prospective families, our team here supports and informs ACS's client companies by liaising with international human resources and global mobility professionals. Many of these relationships have been developed and sustained over a decade through onsite company headquarters visits and face-to-face exchanges at leading conferences.

Another important constituency for the NAO is educational advisors and consultants who serve families relocating internationally or those families considering boarding school abroad for their children. ACS enjoys long-established relationships with the US and Canada's leading international educational consulting groups located near New York, Philadelphia, and Toronto.

The NAO also supports the good work of the ACS International Schools Foundation and its Programs of Distinction that, with the British-American Business Council, has raised over $500,000 and funded over 100 all-expenses-paid scholarships for deserving and able high school students' summer study in England. ACS has also served at the board level with key non profits such as the Families in Global Transition organization and partnered with leading youth-serving groups such as the International Youth Foundation.

Sited in an area offering every amenity found in thriving tourist district, the North American Office has hosted teacher recruitment events and welcomed academic leaders as well as prospective parents.

If you would like to make an appointment to visit us, please contact our team here by phone or e-mail. Our office hours are Monday-Friday 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, a business day that ends five hours after our London-area Admissions Office close.

We hope to hear from you in the near future and look forward to helping you and your family with your all important school-choice decision.

Sincerely yours,

Andrew J. Kittell
