About Concordia International School Ningbo

Why work for Concordia International School Ningbo ?

With the advent of the age of artificial intelligence, mechanical automation and increasingly advanced biotechnology have brought great convenience to human work and life, and have triggered Concordia's thinking about the future of education. How does the new technological revolution essentially affect education now and even in the future? Can the educational wisdom we have accumulated lead today's students to adapt to and even create the future they desire? Concordia's answer is that whole-person education that conforms to the laws of human growth is still the most likely path to success, which is expressed in Concordia's philosophy: Harmony and Difference, Harmony for Prosperity.

Relying on the Concordia Global Education Community, which has global influence and a long history of development, and as a supporting project of Ningbo's "3315 Talent Program", Concordia School Ningbo is based on the principle of "Harmony and Difference, Harmony for the Future". Concordia School Ningbo (CSN) and Concordia International School Ningbo (CISN) are established under the motto of "Harmony and Difference, Harmony for Prosperity". The two schools are distinctive in their philosophies, curricula, and teaching staff, providing diverse, profound, dynamic, and life-affirming whole-person education programs for families with different needs, and nurturing new generations who are inquisitive, knowledgeable, caring, and who have made lifelong learning a lifelong pursuit. At the same time, the two schools share cutting-edge educational resources, integrate Chinese and foreign cultures, and work together to form a vibrant, inclusive, multicultural community of Concordia learners. We believe that the forms of a vital education can be varied, but the commonalities embodied in the inherent spirit as well as in the practice far outweigh the differences.
