Food and nutrition

International menus for a global community

The school's Catering Department is operated in-house, enabling us to employ and train all our own chefs. We take great pride in our autonomy as it allows us to produce the type of creative, fresh and nutritious food that appeals to our international community.

Here at ACS we source only fresh ingredients from nominated and approved suppliers. Most of our daily deliveries of vegetables, fruit, dairy and meat come from local producers, meaning we can literally trace each meal from 'farm to fork'.

We keep our menus seasonal, change them regularly, and embrace the School Food's Trust nutritional guidelines. Your ideas and recipe suggestions are always welcome. We hope you take full advantage of our fantastic catering facilities, and look forward to serving you soon.

Lower School Lunches
At ACS we actively encourage Lower School students to eat a nutritionally balanced meal. Their choice is not limited to the main hot meal of the day, they can also choose from our daily vegetarian dishes, a jacket potato or maybe a filled roll. The set menu for Lower School costs £2.85 per day and includes a choice of fresh cut fruit, salad bar, cheese & crackers, chilled milk, yoghurt or dessert.

Middle & High School Lunches
Middle & High School students can choose from our extensive Food Court serving a hot main meal of the day, 'Grab & Go' items such as Jacket Potato, Pasta Bar, Panini, Homemade Soup, salad or a fruit pot, bagel, baguette, sandwich, smoothie, juice or dessert.

Students have the option to pay for their food by either using biometric thumb print recognition or using a Upay system swipe card, this allows the security of a cashless system whilst also being user friendly and helping speed up the queues.
