Acacia International School uses in elementary and middle school a North American Classical curriculum that is designed for an international setting. In high school we offer the Cambridge IGSCEs and A-levels. You can find out more from our admissions or curriculum pages or drop us an email to schedule a visit (admin@acacia.co.ug). We’d love to see you.
Kindergarten to Grade 8
From Kindergarten to Grade 8, Acacia follows the core knowledge scope and sequence in most subjects. This is a ‘Classical’ curriculum developed in the US for a diverse and international classroom. Students explore a comprehensive and engaging account of world history through the lens of Susan Wise Bauer’s story of the world. For Mathematics, students are challenged and stretched through the problem-solving approach of Singapore Math. Read more about Acacia’s classical approach to education and how faith impacts instruction in the school’s Philosophy of Education.

High School
In grades 9 and 10, students prepare for Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) with final exams in May. IGCSE is the most widely used and most recognized international qualification for secondary school students. It parallels GCSE examinations in the UK, however, the curriculum is designed to meet the unique needs of international students. In addition to the IGCSE subjects students take classes in Bible, Physical Education and Service Project where they are challenged to serve Christ through leadership, serving each other, serving the local and global community and caring for the environment.
In grade 11 and 12 Acacia offers a range of AS and A Level subjects, also examined by the Cambridge International Examinations Board. Most students study four subjects at AS level in grade 11 and continue with three subjects to full A level in grade 12. In these final two years they continue to study Bible, Physical Education and Service Project.
Acacia offers American credits for all classes taken, with a view to graduating students with an accredited American high school graduation diploma in addition to the IGCSE and A-level results.
