Nord Anglia Education is the world’s leading premium schools organization, with campuses located across 29 countries in the Americas, Europe, China, Southeast Asia, India and the Middle East.

Together, their 87 schools educate more than 88,000 students from nursery through to the end of secondary school.

They are driven by one unifying philosophy: they are ambitious for their schools, students, teachers, staff and communities, and inspire every child who attends a Nord Anglia Education school to achieve more than they ever imagined possible.

Every parent wants the best for their child – so do we. Nord Anglia Education schools deliver high quality, transformational education and ensure excellent academic outcomes by going beyond traditional learning. 

Nord Anglia's global scale enables them to recruit and retain world-leading teachers, and to offer unforgettable experiences through global and regional events, while their engaging learning environments ensure students love coming to school.

Nord Anglia Education was founded in 1972 in the United Kingdom. The name Nord Anglia was chosen because of the company’s beginnings in the north of England. 

They initially offered learning services such as English-as-a-foreign-language classes, and grew during the 1980s by opening full-scale nurseries and kindergartens.

In 1992, they opened their first international school, the British School of Warsaw. In the 2000s, Nord Anglia Education began a strategic focus on premium international schools, with rapid growth in Asia, the Americas, and across Europe and the Middle East.

A truly international organization, NAE now operates premium international schools worldwide.

In July 2019, Nord Anglia Education relocated its headquarters from Hong Kong to London, enabling even stronger growth in the future.
