Nord Anglia International School, New York, formerly World Class Learning Academy, New York (also known as WCLA,[1] WCLANY or WCLA, NY[1]), is a for-profit[2] international school in New York. The school was established in 2011 and currently educates students who represent over 35 nations.[3][4] It is a member of the Nord Anglia Education family of schools.

NAIS, New York is a co-educational, non-selective school. Students applying are not required to sit an entrance exam. However, when it is unclear if a child has the appropriate level of English, additional learning needs, or if it is unclear which year the child should enter then the appropriate assessments are administered.[5]

The school is located in the East Village area of lower Manhattan in New York City.[6]

The organisation was founded in 1972 and its schools are currently home to over 36,000 students between the ages of 2 and 18 years. Schools of Nord Anglia Education follow the English National Curriculum which is adapted to fit the needs and culture of different regions. They also offer the International Baccalaureate, IGCSEs and in some places, A Levels, the French Baccalaureate and the Swiss Matura.
