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.
