About ISA Tianhe International School
Established in 2015, ISA Tianhe International School is the first school of the ISA International Education Group. ISA Tianhe’s education system creatively fuses the International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme with the UK National Curriculum standards and outcomes. It also contains outstanding Language Programme and Co-curriculum Programme. The multicultural atmosphere and innovative curriculum system have enrolled children from Consulates, Chambers of Commerce and executives from some of the world’s top 500 companies, enrolling children from about 30 countries.
Since its establishment, ISA Tianhe has always been committed to providing students with top educational resources and the best learning experience. The school has received IB PYP authorization and is also a centre for LAMDA exams (London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts).
ISA Tianhe International School of Guangzhou is a vibrant community in which students experience the joy of learning, strive to achieve their potential, and navigate the ever-changing world. In addition to providing a balanced development education system for students, ISA Tianhe also pays attention to the quality of students’ lives, and supports the welfare of students, with an efficient home-school communication system. ISA Tianhe promotes the intellectual, physical, emotional and social growth of all students in a caring and supportive learning environment.
A Balanced ISA Education Emphasises:
A Holistic Approach
Focusing on a comprehensive learning journey, there is a balanced set of learning dimensions: academic, pastoral, and cocurricular which are often integrated. We focus on the ‘Whole Child’ – his or her intellectual, physical, emotional and social development.
Lifelong Learning
Focusing on student motivation, individual differences, learner-centred approaches, metacognition and student wellbeing, students learn the skills of learning and they develop a love of learning that stays with them for their entire lives.
Global-mindedness & Connections
Focusing on learning English, Chinese and Mother-tongue languages, appreciating the values beneath the cultures of others, connecting every day with people from other cultures, and engaging in international travel, study and immersion activities, all broaden students’ cultural horizons and prepare them for an increasingly connected world.
The Building of Community
Focusing on positive relationships between the school and parents ensure as close an alignment as possible between the values of parents and the strategic intent and operation of the school. It also involves positive and fruitful relationships with educational organisations, providers of specialist services, designers and architects, government departments, foreign consulates, and chambers of commerce, private companies, and NGOs.
