EF Academy’s mission is to open the world through education. At our private high school welcoming day and boarding students from 60+ countries, students will experience their high school classes through a global lens. Our curriculum provides a learning experience that allows individuals to explore diverse perspectives through a process of collaboration, analysis, and reflection aimed at developing the skills necessary to respond to the challenges and opportunities facing their generation. Here, we foster true global citizenship through our multicultural learning community.
Our philosophy
We believe that living and learning in an global community helps make the world a better place. Through individual and collective learning, we empower young people from all nationalities and backgrounds to realize their full potential, become open-minded individuals and make a positive impact in their communities and in the world.
Our place
Our global school education is fueled by creativity, innovation and choice. Our campuses are strategically set in New York, Pasadena and the academic heart of the UK because they offer boundless learning and professional opportunities for our students to explore. As part of EF, we maintain an integrated global support system for our families with 24 local offices around the world.
Our people
Our people are what make our community so special. In fact, we’ve come to think that “EF” also stands for “extended family”. We are passionate, interculturally trained educators with vast global experience who speak 20 languages between us. We are our students’ 360 support away from home, a responsibility that we hold to the highest level.
