Returning to school

ACS International Schools’ UK campuses re-open on 1 June 2020 for students in Early Childhood, Pre-K, Kindergarten and Grade 5. Additionally, from 15 June, Grade 11 students will be invited to return for in-person learning support before the school year ends. This follows UK Government guidance and aligns with returning UK school years. All other year groups will continue distance learning until the end of the academic year on 24 June.

Health, safety and wellbeing remains our priority

We have worked closely with parents, guardians and teachers to complete a comprehensive risk assessment to protect the health, safety and wellbeing our community. For all other students, our distance learning plan continues through the end of the school year.

ACS - Investing in Our Future

Middle school student
As an entrepreneur, you definitely need people skills, you are often the boss and it can be your job to resolve conflict, so having an understanding of people from different backgrounds certainly helps – and that’s definitely something you get from ACS being an international school – inclusivity and diversity flows through its very DNA.
