Our Housing and Transport Departments are looking forward to helping you settle into your new home and community swiftly and easily.

Housing

In order to help arriving families find their ideal home in the UK, ACS Housing Officers provide a home search of available properties located in the school’s busing area. We provide as much or as little support as you require. This may mean providing back-up to your relocation agent or taking you on a house tour of short-listed homes. Our housing officers are not associated with or remunerated by any external agencies and provide this service free of charge to enrolling families.

Once you’ve found your new home, they can also help you settle into your new community by providing information on all aspects of local life. Additionally, links to the PTO and school community can be initiated here, where you can be assured of a warm welcome and strong support.

Transitions to ACS

As families join our schools throughout the academic year, strong networks are in place to help you settle into our extended community. The Admissions Office, Housing Officer, Welcome Committee, International Group, Parent-Teacher Organisation, Lower, Middle and High School administrators, teachers, faculty and student counsellors, and the student Buddy Programme, all provide effective support to help incoming students and families tackle the many challenges associated with relocation.

Transport

Each day, ACS buses transport hundreds of students safely and efficiently between home and school. Transportation is provided in comfortable coaches, for either door-to-door or shuttle pick-up services. See the campus-based transportation information for approximate bussing times from popular campus neighbourhoods.
