With the prevalence of international education, more and more families choose to send their children to international schools for education. So, what are the differences between international schools and schools within the system? Next, Hangzhou Dingwen School will introduce you in detail, hoping to help you better choose international schools.
First, the direction of further study has its own emphasis.
The main goal of students in schools within the system is to enter domestic universities for further study, while students in international schools choose to study abroad more. Although students from schools within the system also have the opportunity to study abroad, they usually need to have better academic achievements and comprehensive quality.
Second, there are significant differences in teaching concepts.
In terms of teaching philosophy, schools in the system pay more attention to imparting knowledge and improving the ability to take exams, while international schools pay more attention to cultivating students' comprehensive quality and innovative ability. The educational philosophy of international schools tends to cultivate international students with global vision and international competitiveness.
Third, the educational path has its own characteristics
The educational path of schools within the system is mainly domestic education, and students usually choose domestic universities for further study after completing their studies. International schools, on the other hand, focus on cultivating students' international vision and cross-cultural communication ability, which provides a more convenient way for students to study abroad.
Fourth, the curriculum is rich and diverse
The curriculum arrangement of schools within the system is relatively fixed, mainly including core subjects such as Chinese, mathematics, English and politics. On the other hand, the courses in international schools are more diverse, covering a variety of international courses such as AP, IB and A-Level. These courses are more selective and can meet students' different academic needs and hobbies.
Although there are significant differences between international schools and schools within the system in terms of curriculum, educational path, teaching philosophy and direction of further study. However, when parents choose a school for their children, they should comprehensively consider factors such as children's interests, academic ability and future planning.
