We are very aware of the enormous opportunities that are available to us being based in Guangzhou. We are at the heart of China, a rapidly transforming nation with a growing influence on the world at large. We recognise that an understanding of Chinese culture and a command of Mandarin will be invaluable assets for the future. Daily Mandarin lessons are complemented by a rich programme of activities, educational trips and whole school events that takes place throughout the school year.

The school’s Advanced Chinese Programme provides pupils who qualify with the opportunity to pursue Mandarin studies to a higher level and aim for a native level of spoken and written Mandarin.

French is also taught as an optional subject.
