As the new school year approaches, we are excited to welcome both returning and new families to our vibrant school community.

Leading international school Nord Anglia International School Shanghai, Pudong announced today that its students are again celebrating outstanding IBDP results for the 2023/24 school year. This year, students achieved an exceptional average score of 33, well above the world average of 30.3.

Our mascot, Tony, graduated along with our other Year 13s in June 2024 and he’s decided to take a Gap Year in order to travel our global Nord Anglia Education family of schools.

Shanghai, 21 June 2024 — As part of Nord Anglia Education (NAE), one of the world’s leading international schools groups, NAIS Pudong is proud to have three students attending this year’s NAE-UNICEF Student Summit, hosted for the first time ever in Houston, Texas.

On 12th June, NAIS Pudong invited parents of Early Years and Primary students to attend the Term 3 Showcase and Year 6 Graduation Ceremony.

Nord Anglia International School Shanghai, Pudong has proudly been part of the Shanghai education picture for almost 25 years and stands as China’s longest-running British international school.

With results season just around the corner - at least for our Year 13s who will get their IB grades on 6th July - the Nord Anglia INSIGHTS team have created a powerful piece which I’d encourage every parent, regardless of the age their child, to read.

This academic year NAIS has hosted 3 netball tournaments, 3 football tournaments, a volleyball tournament and a badminton tournament along with countless football, basketball and volleyball matches.

We are thrilled to announce that our school, as the first Nord Anglia School in China, has been honoured with the prestigious Silver Accreditation for Social Impact! This achievement stands as a testament to the unwavering dedication of our Social Impact Committee and the remarkable efforts of our entire school community. As we reflect on this remarkable journey, we are filled with gratitude and excitement for the transformative impact we continue to make.

Mid-Autumn Festival is a moment for family, friends, and our diverse international community to unite and share the joy of this special occasion. Wishing everyone safe travels and a joyous holiday soon!

There's implementation of two new programmes in our school: Accelerated Reader and Star Reading Assessment. Accelerated Reader is a computer programme that provides quizzes for children to take after reading books. Similarly, Star Reading Assessment is another online tool that allows teachers to grade students' reading levels and helps them to monitor their progress.

Our students are continually developing skills in secondary school, they have an outstanding preliminary understanding of maths in primary school, and this week our young learners have been working incredibly hard to build some of those core areas.

Over the summer this year I had a great opportunity to attend the NAE-UNICEF summit as a school representative, working as a summit reporter. This was a massive program with more than 100 students from across our family of more than 80 Nord Anglia Education (NAE) schools, representing a huge range of nationalities.

We're exploring just some of the activities from school this week, and the academic journey began with a world of wonder and creativity!

In the realm of early childhood education, our Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) provision has emerged as a beacon of excellence. From their very first day at NAIS, every child in our care benefits from our shared vision: Together, we develop creative, confident and considerate learners prepared for their futures.

Excited students and their parents spent Tuesday afternoon choosing their after school activities (ASAs) for the coming season which commences on Monday 11 September.  A wide variety of vendors attended the event, providing detailed information about each activity and how it could benefit our students.

Congratulations to our Year 11 Class of 2023 for their hard work and resilience during their IGCSE studies over the past two years!

On Monday we return to the core business of education and providing the best possible provision and opportunities for our students, but alongside the traditional teaching and learning activities, the sometimes unsung heroes who make up our Parent & Community Association (PCA) also restarted their important work in their roles as conduits between the school and the community as a whole.
