How to choose a good international high school in China?

To choose a good international high school in China, we need to consider the following aspects: school-running experience, school-running direction, curriculum, teaching staff and further education. Details are as follows:

1, school experience:

International high schools need long-term exploration to organically combine foreign teaching and teachers with the actual situation of students and schools in China. Many newly established international classes are in the selection of curriculum system, curriculum setting, teaching and research, management of foreign teachers, preparation for exams, etc.

Students' ideological guidance and effective management, university application and other key links are still in the exploratory stage. Zhou Yeqin reminded parents to pay more attention when choosing schools with long running time and rich running experience.

2. School direction:

A truly international school must have its own educational ideas and goals, not just a cash cow for profit. The standard of measurement is the whereabouts of graduates and the real improvement of their comprehensive ability abroad.

Therefore, before choosing an international class for their children, parents must know the whereabouts of the students who graduated from the international class. They should not only look at publicity, but also distinguish between so-called university admission forms such as students taking undergraduate courses directly or going abroad to study languages, preparatory courses, bridge courses and universities. The correct direction of running a school is the only way to run an international class well.

3, curriculum, teachers and continuing education:

Most international senior high school classes in China are still in the primary stage, which can be roughly divided into three types, which should be carefully distinguished. A full set of foreign senior high school textbooks, SAT and AP courses have been introduced, but these courses are not localized, so that China students whose mother tongue is not English can learn the knowledge of arts and sciences all over the UK together with senior high school students in Britain and the United States at once. Many students can't adapt to it, forming a situation of listening to gobbledygook.

In addition, due to the strict class requirements of foreign senior high schools, the international class teaching conflicts with the preparation time of IELTS and TOEFL exams, and most of these schools do not undertake the on-campus teaching obligation of overseas exams. Students need to go to the society to train IELTS, TOEFL and SAT, which greatly affects their test scores.

Extended data:

Basic types of international high schools:

1, mashup:

High school liberal arts courses, foreign teacher courses, English training, IELTS TOEFL test, SAT test training and even a mix of Chinese studies courses and extracurricular activities. This kind of course seems good and has everything, but there is usually no systematic and dominant course, and students' time and energy are limited, so it is difficult to form a solid foundation. An international class announced the total class hours of various courses to parents, and even made a joke that it was saturated for more than one week.

2, experience accumulation type:

This kind of school relies on many years of practical experience in running international education in senior high schools, and belongs to the type of accumulated experience. Based on the accumulation of many years' experience and lessons, with foreign authoritative system courses as the leading factor, supplemented by domestic science double-base intensive exercises, under the premise of consolidating the foundation of Chinese and foreign courses, the review and preparation for overseas entrance examinations are completed in the school system, achieving twice the result with half the effort.
