Welcome from Head of School, Tony Eysele
Welcome to ACS Cobham International School where diversity,
innovation, academic excellence and global awareness come together
to deliver an exceptional education. A special word of welcome to
all of you who are visiting our website for the first time - we
hope that once you have seen us virtually, you will want to come
see our beautiful campus for real, and experience what life at ACS
Cobham is all about.
We aim to promote a high standard of scholarship, responsibility
and citizenship in a supportive, international community. We
implement a student-centred approach to instruction following an
inquiry-based and interdisciplinary curriculum. The success of our
community relies upon the teamwork, motivation and collaboration of
teachers, support staff, students and parents.
Our goal is to encourage all students to be critical thinkers
and responsible global citizens, who are prepared to achieve the
highest standards, both in their subsequent education and
throughout their careers.
The curriculum at ACS Cobham - featuring both the renowned
International Baccalaureate Diploma and rigorous Advanced Placement
courses - is designed to support a developmental, student-focused
approach, where teaching for understanding and reasoning is
paramount.
Modern education is more than just classroom attentiveness and
examinations; we want to encourage our students to get the balance
right by immersing themselves in learning, sports, healthy
activities, the performing arts and charity work. We might
not always get the balance right, such is the nature of dealing
with young people, however our endeavours can never be faulted.
With over 50 nationalities represented on campus, each of us has
an exceptional opportunity to develop an understanding of people
from many different cultures. Our alumni speak with passion about
their time at ACS Cobham, and how happy they were in our secure
learning environment - for us that is a true measure of what we are
about.
Please feel free to contact us for additional information, or
should you wish to visit the campus. We will be delighted to spend
time with you.
