Working outside the constraints of a national curriculum gives ACS International Schools certain freedoms. They are able to innovate, design and develop a curriculum that is appropriate for the needs of its diverse population of students.
This group of schools – which includes three schools in London and Surrey and one in Doha, Qatar – also uses these freedoms to maximise its effectiveness in teaching and learning through action research.
Continuous improvement is a running theme through the school’s ethos and culture and there is an expectation that teachers are reflective in their classroom practice. The schools are unique in having set up their own Centre for Inspiring Minds (CIM) to support their teaching staff and facilitate this work. The CIM, which is staffed with experts and offers a huge pool of materials and resources, has links to top British and overseas universities.
