    In addition to being more autonomous, the requirements for foreign languages are higher, and it is also necessary to pay attention to the issue of household registration, which is similar to the enrollment of domestic middle schools in other aspects.

    Students will have an entrance test before they enroll. The entrance test is divided into interviews with Chinese and foreign teachers, computer-based tests and written tests. Children in the lower grades only need face-to-face evaluation from Chinese and foreign teachers, and those in the upper grades will need face-to-face evaluation and computer-based examinations from Chinese and foreign teachers.

    The test is mainly to understand the child's academic foundation, as well as moral education, personality and psychology. Academic foundation will not be used as the sole criterion for admission. It mainly depends on the child's learning ability and learning attitude.

    Nowadays, international schools are basically private, so for private schools, the degree of economic benefits is higher than that of public schools, so the corresponding admission standards are relatively low. I graduated from an international school in Tianjin in 2011 and am now in my first year of undergraduate studies at the University of Ottawa in Canada. I think in terms of my experience in my school.

    It is best to go to a public school in the first year of high school, and lay a good foundation in various subjects, especially science and English, English grammar, and a large number of accumulated words, if you want to go to the United States or Commonwealth countries, IELTS or TOEFL are required. We Chinese students tend to excel in academic courses, and in my case, I just finished my math midterm exam with an A grade, and the perfect score in math was almost all taken by Chinese students. But the language scores are not very good.

    The average score of IELTS candidates in Chinese mainland is the third lowest in the world. So since you want to prepare to go abroad, you have to pass the language. Isn't it a loss that academics meet the requirements of the university, but language becomes a stumbling block?

    So I suggest that you do a good job in the first year of high school, and then go to an international school in the second and third years of high school. Going to an international school should have high self-control and autonomy, because those who go to international schools have a bit of a background at home, so it is easy to form a bad atmosphere, or the learning atmosphere is not strong, so it is recommended that you should be clear about your goals, as well as your future planning, and choose carefully. This is only my opinion, I hope it can be helpful to you.

    Is that okay?

    An international school is usually a school that provides education in the mother tongue of foreign nationals living in the home country, and some also enroll students from their own country. In recent years, it has developed into a school that can also provide foreign education models for domestic students. Generally speaking, an international school is a school that provides education at the secondary level or below, has a significant proportion of foreign students, and has a foreign academic system.

    Specifically, there are three major classifications:

    School for Children of Expats 2International Department of Public Schools (International Class) 3Private International School.

    Among the nearly 400 international schools in China, the main international courses are A-level, AP, IB, American high school curriculum, Canadian high school curriculum and Australian high school curriculum.

    Hello, the teachers of Weihai Ivy League International School tell you that the first type of international schools are legally established in China by foreign institutions, foreign-funded enterprises, international organizations in China and foreigners legally residing in China (referred to as "international schools run by foreigners").

    The second type is schools that recruit Chinese students at the same time and have the qualification to accept foreign students, which adopt A-level, IB, AP and other international curriculum teaching, have independent campuses, and their curriculum system, educational philosophy, hardware facilities and students constitute urban international schools.

    The third category is the international department of local schools, which offer AP and A-level training courses for Chinese students, and their courses are foreign courses, but the mode of classes, educational philosophy and student composition are a combination of Chinese and Western, strictly speaking, these schools cannot be regarded as international schools.

    From the current situation, international schools in China can be divided into three main categories:

    1. Foreign schools: most of them are established by overseas enterprises or individuals, mainly for the children of foreign children in China. (Enrollment is conditional, a small number of families are selected).

    2. International classes in public schools: international classes offered by Chinese public schools for studying abroad, and established by public schools themselves. (For example, there are requirements for household registration scores in Beijing, and a small number of families choose them).

    3. Private international schools: Most of them are founded by Chinese private enterprises, and most of them are Chinese students, and they all adopt the international mainstream curriculum system, including AP, A-level, IB, Canada, Australia and other international courses, and provide students with the original international curriculum. (The enrollment conditions are relatively relaxed, and most families choose it).

    As we enter the new international school selection season, for many new parents, how to choose the right one for their child among the many international schools? In fact, it is not very difficult, just establish the current enrollment of three types of international schools, according to their own situation can easily distinguish the right schools for children, the actual enrollment status of the three types of international schools is below.

    Category 1: International Department of Public Schools.

    The tuition fee of this type of international school is small, about 100,000 yuan a year. The source of students is also better. This has something to do with the habits of parents in Beijing, if the child is excellent, the first choice is the international department of the public school; Parents in other places, such as Shanghai, prefer private schools.

    The biggest problem in choosing this kind of school is also very Chinese: if you are not a Beijing or a nine-category person, you will be subject to some restrictions on choosing the international department of a public school. Non-Beijing families who want to choose a first-class school need to confirm whether they want to enroll non-Beijing schools with the International Department of Intentions before they can apply.

    Recommended schools: International Department of the National People's Congress, International Department of the Second Affiliated Department of Beijing Normal University, International High School of Beijing Language and Culture University, etc.

    Category II: Private International Schools.

    The tuition fee for private schools is about 160,000-180,000 yuan per year. The biggest advantage is that there is no status restriction, as long as the conditions are met, that is to say, it will be recruited nationwide. At the same time, the English environment of this type of school is better, the school is generally an independent community, and the school building conditions will be better.

    If you are admitted to school, you will be able to enter the school after passing the exam.

    There are also a few noteworthy problems here, among the private schools, Keystone, World Youth and Lecheng schools will have restrictions on the number of enrollment places, most of the time because there are no places, and families who intend to such schools need to start preparing half a year or a year in advance.

    Recommended schools: Eddie International School, Limai International School, Juncheng Bilingual International School, Xinfu Foreign Language Chinese School, Beijing International High School, Beijing Sino-Canadian School, etc.

    Category 3: International Schools for Foreign Children.

    This type of school only admits foreign students! Only families with green cards or foreign passports can choose from them. Due to enrollment restrictions, only a small percentage of families are eligible for admission to such schools.

    Some of the more well-known schools in Beijing are: Beijing Shunyi, Dulwich, Western Beijing School, Canadian School, Montessori School, etc.

    The most obvious difference between an international school and a regular school is in the curriculum and progression. Most of the courses in international schools are foreign courses or bilingual courses, and professional foreign teachers are hired to teach. IB (International Baccalaureate Curriculum), A-Level (British Curriculum), and AP (American Curriculum) are currently particularly mainstream international courses, which are much higher than domestic courses in terms of recognition from foreign universities, so students can freely apply to their favorite foreign universities and often receive satisfactory admission results.

    The admission requirements for international schools are as follows:

    1. Have a good foundation in English.

    Applicants for international schools need to take an entrance exam, most schools will be in English, if the student's English level is not up to standard, it is difficult to pass the international school entrance exam.

    2. Have certain specialties and hobbies.

    International schools have a wealth of extracurricular activities and pay more attention to students' interests and hobbies, so if students have talents or have won relevant awards, they will have an advantage when applying to universities.

    3. Strong autonomy and self-management ability.

    The open teaching of international schools attaches more importance to students' self-management ability, and in many cases, students need to take the initiative to learn by themselves, and teachers play more of a role in auxiliary teaching.

    4. Comply with relevant policy requirements.

    In the elementary and middle school grades, if you want to apply for an international school, you need to meet the local policy requirements. For example, Beijing has clear requirements for document verification for Beijing and non-Beijing nationals, and only families who have passed the audit can successfully enroll in the school.

    Benefits of International Schooling:

Foreign teachers provide teaching quality assurance, and most of the foreign teachers hired by the school from overseas are the elite Gao Zhao, who has been famous abroad for many years, and the course content is extensive and flexible, which is very helpful to improve the richness of students' thinking level and broaden their horizons.
