ACS International Schools enrol a total
of 2,300 students aged between 2 1/2 and 18, from over
60 countries, speaking 30 languages, at three London
area campuses in England. Based on international and
American research, principles, and educational practices,
the schools are committed to maintaining the highest
standards of scholarship and citizenship.
Our academic programme
All ACS campuses are International Baccalaureate (IB)
World Schools, offering the IB Diploma. In addition,
ACS Egham International School is one of only three
schools in the UK to also offer the IB Primary Years
Programme (3-11), and the IB Middle Years Programme
(11-16). All ACS campuses offer an American High School
Diploma, with ACS Cobham International School and ACS
Hillingdon International School also teaching prestigious
Advanced Placement (AP) courses. ACS graduates attend
leading universities around the world including: Cambridge,
Imperial College London, London School of Economics,
and Oxford in the UK; Harvard, Princeton, Stanford,
and Yale in the US; and McGill, Stockholm School of
Economics, University of Oslo, Delft University of Technology,
University of Tokyo, and Keio from the rest of the world.
We are accredited by the New England Association for
Schools and Colleges, and authorised by the International
Baccalaureate Organization.
Extracurricular activities
ACS encourages every student to engage in a rich and
diverse student life. Our extensive athletic programme
fields Varsity, Junior Varsity, and Middle School teams
in 11 sports. Supporting these teams are highly motivated
coaches, and state-of-theart facilities including 17
sports fields, 3 modern gymnasiums, 15 tennis courts,
an Olympic sized running track, six-hole golf course,
and a newly constructed Sports Center with basketball/
volleyball show court, and 25-metre competition-class
swimming pool. In addition, our extensive and varied
extracurricular clubs, and community service activities
stimulate, as well as inspire, significant student participation
in international theatre art programmes, maths, literature,
and music competitions, and outreach projects both locally
and around the world.
Boarding
The ACS Cobham International School campus offers an
exceptional, co-educational, boarding experience for
110 students aged between 12 and 18. All student rooms
are ergonomically designed for two, and include en suite
facilities and Internet connections. The Dormitory has
six resident House Parents, and ten live-in teacher
supervisors.
State-of-the-art facilities in
stately surroundings
Our schools set the benchmark standard for quality educational
facilities and grounds. Each campus is built around
a spacious country estate, enhanced by modern, purpose-built
classrooms, libraries, science labs, IT rooms, art studios,
cafeterias, and sports facilities. The organisation’s
robust programme of development and renewal has invested
over £45 million into campus facilities over the
past ten years.
Transition and housing support
for incoming families
Our expert Admissions teams are knowledgeable in both
academic and relocation issues, and our well-established
parent communities provide additional support and transition
assistance to incoming families. On-site Housing officers
assist families and relocation agents in finding the
ideal home within each school’s extensive busing
zone, where housing is up to 50% less expensive than
central London locations.
