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.

We're thrilled to announce that Mr Deepak Khadka, our esteemed NAIS Global Campus Lead, has been appointed as the Regional Global Campus Lead for Nord Anglia International Schools in China.

As part of the INSIGHTS series which we’ve featured several times across the academic year, this post feels specifically well timed in today’sever-changing technological world. There is an often recurring debate across the education field related to use of mobile phones both in school and at home, and as per the featured article, I think we can all agree that while the use of technology in school should be embraced when linked to functional learning, the broad use of mobile phones for social sites and general ‘doom scrolling’ when in school should not be permitted; it’s why our school has a policy which prohibits the use of mobile phones during the school day.

Earlier last week we were privileged to be joined on campus by Julian Blissett, the General Manager of General Motors.  Julian came in to talk to students across the school about his career pathway.

We are delighted to announce details of the Summer Camp options which will be available on campus this year. We will run two separate themed options, both of which will provide NAIS Pudong and external students with a plethora of academic and fun activities for a variety of age groups.  Both camp themes aim to build on our values of developing creative, confident and considerate students who are prepared for their futures.

Our Y4, Y5 and Y6 students headed to Nantong last week to immerse themselves in three days of hands-on activities that develop practical skills and teamwork.  From fun games such as archery tag, to boat-building competitions, orienteering, survival skills, and cultural engagement, the event was built around the UN Strategic Development Goals of Quality Education (SDG4), Sustainable Cities and Communities (SDG11), and Climate Action (SDG13).

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.
