‘Personalised learning’ is just one example of a term discussed frequently in schools but often with different ideas and meanings. In my 30+ years as an educator, I have found that some parents have different definitions of personalised learning, while others may not be very familiar with the concept or the concrete benefits it brings to students at school!

Nord Anglia International School, Pudong has an outstanding reputation for being a caring and supportive community, something that I have seen in full evidence throughout this first half term, with every one of our Primary and Early Years students settling into their new learning environments and routines successfully and happily.

As somebody who is planning on entering the medical field and studying medicine once graduate, our IB student Jessica has done a lot of research into how she can do as much as she can, outside of academics, to prepare herself for the extremely demanding field.

I would like to extend a warm welcome to all our students, parents, and families.

As your child begins their education journey in preschool — or even if they’re a bit older in primary or secondary school — creating friendships is vital for their social development along the way.

As a parent, have you ever wondered how you can better support your child’s learning at school? We sat down with Dr Kate Erricker, Nord Anglia Education’s Assistant Director of Curriculum — who has 21 years of educational experience — to discuss some of the best ways parents can identify their children’s individual strengths and help them develop their skills so they can get even more from learning at school.

Here are the most important dates for your diary in the upcoming school year.

One of the questions I often get asked — by students and parents alike — is “what exactly is creativity and why does it matter?”

Leading premium international schools organisation Nord Anglia Education today announced that Greengates School has become part of its global family of schools. Founded in 1951, Greengates is Nord Anglia’s third school in Mexico and its 78th school worldwide.

The eighth edition of our annual Model United Nations conference (NAISMUN VIII) was a huge success with over 50 delegates from 6 NAE China Region schools and their Directors in attendance. Despite the challenges of hosting a virtual event and the delegates not being able to meet and debate face-to-face, the day proceeded well and the delegates made every minute count.

On 8th June, we took the opportunity to hold our traditional Graduation ceremony for our Class of 2022. In my opening address, I shared the uniqueness of their story and spoke a little about not only the adversities they have faced over the past few months but also the resilience and strength of this group of graduates as a cohort.

From exceptional academic results, to having the creativity, resilience, and confidence to make their mark on the world, at Nord Anglia we make sure every child leaves our schools with everything they need to succeed in whatever they want to do or be in life.

Today we celebrate our Year 13 athletes at who have represented the Pudong Tigers teams and contributed to the success we have had in many sports for many years. Our students competed on the court in netball, basketball, and volleyball, on the sports field with football and in the pool breaking so many personal bests over the years. Our hope is as these students move to university, they continue to keep sport in their life and try new things, join teams and clubs and have an active lifestyle.

Creativity Activity Service, commonly known as CAS is a Core element of the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP).

What struck me when learning about NAIS Pudong, was the emphasis on the development of the whole child and the opportunities and experiences on offer to develop them as young people with confidence, resilience and to enhance their wellbeing.

Take a moment to think of someone that you consider to be wise. Now hold that thought.
