The outdoor areas include a running track, all-weather pitches and two playgrounds in a green area on the Haiyi Peninsula. The boarding house provides many students with a homely and caring environment.
GIS is authorized by the Ministry of Education of China and offers three different educational streams, each with an increasing level of bilingualism. Based on the admission interview and the school’s recommendation, students are placed in a specific stream.
GIS does not only teach English as knowledge; it is treated as a natural skill that can be developed, much like other basic survival skills. They offer courses like IT, drama, dance, music, visual arts and more. They have an open door policy and offer leisure and sports facilities to families as part of the community.
