Thank you so much for taking time to tour the website of ACS Egham International School: I look forward to welcoming you to our campus and community in person!

The High School at ACS Egham International School is a very special international learning community. We have a wonderful team of highly qualified and experienced faculty, administrators and support staff to provide a caring, challenging and stimulating education for our students and a close network for our parents.

With over 185 High School students from 32 different nationalities our students’ education is enriched by the cultural diversity and natural beauty of a green and safe learning environment at ACS Egham International School. Class size is small and facilities are well equipped with current technology.

ACS Egham students and adults are life-long learners with a passion for achievement. As an IB World School, we embrace the mission and philosophy of the International Baccalaureate and its fundamental concepts of holistic education, internationalism and communication.

Our students are reflective, knowledgeable thinkers and inquirers; they are confident communicators who are principled, open-minded and caring; they are independent and appreciate the importance of a healthy and balanced lifestyle. Our students are global citizens and young leaders with a concern about the future of our planet and its communities and they are equipped with the skills to meet the demands of our 21st century world.

The IB Middle Years Programme and Diploma Programme provide our graduates with a superior preparation for further education and secure their placement in top universities worldwide. This year we are once again very proud of the achievement of the Class of 2009 with 100% IB Diploma pass rate and average scores well above the world average. These outstanding results are a tribute to the hard work of our students, faculty and supportive parents.

Central to the school’s vision is the belief that every student will be provided the opportunity to achieve more than they believe they can. Our experienced international staff including a full time counsellor and college counsellor and a Student Services team of English language, learning and enrichment support teachers and coordinators work with students and parents in a partnership to maximize every student’s potential.

Our students take advantage of multiple academic and extra-curricular opportunities to develop new interests and talents. We are proud of our Athletics, Visual and Creative and Performing Arts programs. Our students are actively involved in community and service, international award schemes, represent the school at Beijing Model United Nations and engage in project and outward-bound activities in Kenya. Field trips enrich our curriculum and help our students develop team building and leadership skills both locally and overseas.

There are opportunities for parents to learn more about the ACS Egham International School curriculum and the IB Middle Years and Diploma programmes through Open House, parent conferences, workshops and regular communication. You will find that our doors are always open and we welcome community feedback to help us continue to provide the very best educational experience for every student.

I am truly proud to be a part of ACS Egham International School! My 21 years in education have taken me from the north of England to East Africa, Indonesia and most recently China where I have been fortunate to work alongside students, teachers, parents and support staff from many nationalities and backgrounds and know that those who experience an international education have one of the finest preparations for life.

Please do feel free to visit the school in person where you will receive a warm welcome from our community!

Warm regards,
