About Yew Chung International School of Shanghai Pudong - Regency Park Campus

Yew Chung Education Foundation was started in 1932 in Hong Kong. From the beginning the Yew Chung concept has been unique and it is one that has resonated in fast-growing China and beyond. Yew Chung operates international schools that bring together East and West by having a Western and a Chinese co-Principal work together to lead their school, and by having Western and Chinese co-teachers work together in each classroom. Teachers plan and work together to provide students with a variety of learning experiences, help students develop English and Chinese communication skills, and role-model appreciation and respect for diversity. The children are multi-national, and the schools produce very academically able but entirely well rounded pupils using the UK and IB curricula.

This ethos of true cooperation and harmony, and a feeling of family, is felt in every Yew Chung school. Teachers are given resources and support to bring out the best in their students, and subjects like Sport, Art and Music are given the emphasis that they deserve to serve the whole child. The East-meets-West ethos is not just seen in words but in actions. Yew Chung’s core values include upholding moral values on the basic tenants of Christian faith, but religion is not taught in schools nor are teachers required to be of any particular religion.

Yew Chung’s successful International School model is expanding. Currently they operate schools in many Chinese cities such as Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing, Qingdao as well as Hong Kong and the US, with plans to expand further.
