The British School of Guangzhou (BSG; Chinese: 广州英国学校) is a British international school in Baiyun District, Guangzhou, China.[1] The school caters to students from the ages of 1 to 18.[2]
Administration[edit]
The British School of Guangzhou was founded in 2005[3] by the British Schools Foundation. In August 2013, the school was acquired by Nord Anglia Education.[4][5]
Curriculum[edit]
The English National Curriculum (ENC), one of three major internationally recognized curricula, is followed at the school. Students who graduate from ENC schools can study at universities all over the world, usually without having to take any additional exams.
Global Initiatives[edit]
Nord Anglia Education students are linked through Global Campus, an initiative that connects students with their international counterparts through online communities.[6]
Collaborations[edit]
Juilliard-Nord Anglia Performing Arts Programme
In February 2015, Nord Anglia Education and The Juilliard School announced a collaboration[7] to enhance performing arts education for students in grades K-12. The program includes an embedded curriculum along with support and engagement with Juilliard alumni and affiliated artists.[8]
It also includes teacher professional development, a summer school, and private lessons. The curriculum was launched in September 2015, and is expected to educate more than 20,000 students aged three to eighteen by 2017.
The curriculum focuses on key works of music, dance, and drama, as well as opportunities for students to be visited by Juilliard alumni and to travel to New York for workshops at The Juilliard School.[9]
