Acacia International School

Acacia International School is a Christian international day school in Kampala serving students aged 3 to 18. The curriculum blends a bespoke program with the American curriculum, Cambridge IGCSE and Advanced Placement, culminating in an American High School Diploma with AP for Grades 11–12. In the Primary years (Kindergarten–Grade 8), students follow the Core Knowledge scope and sequence within a Classical US-based framework, studying world history via Story of the World and mathematics with Singapore Math. In Grades 9–10, students prepare for Cambridge IGCSEs with Bible, Physical Education and a Service Project component. In Grades 11–12, the school delivers an American pathway with AP courses. The school is accredited by ACSI and MSA and emphasises weekly chapels and Bible instruction. Since opening in 2012, Acacia has expanded to the Lakeside Campus, a 44-acre site featuring modern classrooms, science laboratories, high school spaces, arts, music and creative studios, sports facilities, chapel spaces, and community areas, supported by a USD 12 million capital campaign. Recent results include a 100% IGCSE pass rate and 90% of AP exams scoring 3 or higher, with several AP Scholars and International Diploma recipients. The school serves a diverse, 31-nation community and provides English language support for learners in Grades 6–12.
