ACS Egham encourages all students to maintain their native language proficiency, as it helps their acquisition of additional languages. A dynamic HLE programme is offered, and the languages offered reflect the major nationalities in the school. The school financially supports this programme through after-school or elective classes – providing there are sufficient students numbers. |
