Chinese Programme
Students learn to read, write, and speak Mandarin Chinese through research-based curricula tailored for both non-native and native speakers. The Chinese Language and Culture Programme runs from Kindergarten through Secondary, with multiple levels for each age range.
Co-Teaching Model
Within each Kindergarten and Primary School classroom; two qualified Teachers, one Western and one Chinese, share the responsibilities relating to the care and education of the students in their class. They provide learning experiences in a bi-cultural and bilingual learning environment.
IGCSE
The curriculum for students in Years 10-11 culminate in the International General Certificate for Secondary Education (IGCSE) examinations. Designed to prepare students for the IB Diploma Programme in Years 12-13, these two years of study integrate core subjects with a variety of electives, community service work, and extracurricular activities.
IB Diploma Programme
YCIS Shanghai offers the IB Diploma Programme, which provides an internationally accepted qualification for entry into higher education and is recognised by many universities worldwide.
Character Education
YCIS Shanghai’s Character Education programme provides students with practical knowledge and skills to help them face the ethical, moral, spiritual, social, and cultural issues of adulthood by reflecting on their experiences in real world situations.
