We are delighted to announce the successful renewal of the Full International School Award (ISA) accreditation from the British Council for the 2026–2029 period.
This distinction recognizes Pierce’s systematic effort to foster international awareness and collaboration among students and educators through educational initiatives and partnerships with the global community.
Pierce – The American College of Greece has received full accreditation from the British Council (British Council International School Award – Full Accreditation) for integrating international elements into its curriculum. The International School Award is a global certification that recognizes a school’s commitment to shaping the global citizens of tomorrow while also giving its curriculum an international dimension, placing the school within a broader global community. The International School Award’s accreditation framework evaluates the following areas:
- Staff Development: Training and professional growth (supporting teachers in preparing for participation in international activities).
- Partnerships with Other Schools: Programs, activities, and communication.
- Curriculum-based Activities: Developing activities across a wide range of subjects.
- Community Engagement: Involving the broader community, including parents, businesses, and social programs.
The accreditation is valid for three years (2015-18, 2018-21, 2022-25 and 2026-29). To achieve it, each school submits evidence of its international activities and their impact on students.
We continue to shape students with broad horizons and respect for diversity, equipping them with the knowledge and skills needed to actively participate in a world without borders.
