Last Friday, NAIS Pudong opened its doors for New Student Orientation Day - a special event to welcome new families into the school community.

This week our teachers have been back on campus, attending training sessions, preparing engaging lessons, and setting up warm and welcoming classrooms for our students. The energy and teamwork have been inspiring as we work together to create the best possible start to the school year.

Nord Anglia International School Shanghai, Pudong (NAIS Pudong) celebrates another exceptional year of International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma results. The Class of 2025 achieved an impressive average score of 37 points, significantly surpassing the global average of 30.58. Among these outstanding results, one student earned a near-perfect 43 points, reflecting both individual dedication and the school’s unwavering commitment to academic excellence.

The choice of education can shape a child’s future. We recently sat down with two families who transferred to NAIS Pudong to hear about their decision-making process, their adaptation journey, and the growth they’ve witnessed in their children. From personalised learning support and an authentic British educational environment to the nurturing of a critical thinking and an open-minded community - let's explore how NAIS Pudong empowers students to thrive in a globalised world.

Last Friday, our NAIS Pudong campus was full of joy and celebration as we welcomed parents to this year's Primary showcase along with transition assemblies for both Reception and Year 6 students — a highlight of the year that brings our vibrant community together.

This year, we proudly unveiled the NAIS Swimming Records Board, a testament to the incredible talent and dedication of our swimmers throughout the years. Thanks to Mr. Lang’s meticulous record-keeping, we’ve been able to trace and compare outstanding performances spanning two decades - showcasing the remarkable evolution of swimming excellence at NAIS.

As we approach the final days of the 2024-2025 academic year, I extend my gratitude to every member of our vibrant community for your support over the year. It is a pleasure to lead such a dynamic community, and I hope everyone finds time to rest and rejuvenate this summer.

Maths in the Primary School at Nord Anglia International School Shanghai, Pudong is taught one lesson each day. Lessons are taught by class teachers who are helped by our highly skilled teaching assistants. We stretch, support, and challenge our students in every lesson by providing questions and strategies that require our students to reason, justify and argue their mathematical thinking. At NAIS, we build creativity in Maths by using a range of well-tried, proven methods and skills based on current research. We teach Maths following best practice and this helps us build considerate learners, who work together with others to solve problems. Our mission is to teach and prepare all our students for real life situations they will encounter not just in school as children but in the future when they become adults.

One of the aims of our Mathematics Curriculum is for students to be able to apply Maths in everyday situations. At NAIS Pudong our aim is to show the importance of Maths outside of the classroom, showing how the subject can link to all subjects in the curriculum and how these skills can be used in later life beyond school.

We are working on a series of activities and events to mark this momentous occasion. We want to tell the unique story of NAIS from the perspective of former and current staff, students and parents through stories and pictures. If you would like to be part of this project we would love to hear from you. You and your children were once part of our special community, and have all been on this journey to 20 years!

Join us for a morning of fun educational activities in our fantastic environment. You and your child will be free to explore the many different learning zones and meet our outstanding teachers and parents experiencing first-hand what it is that makes Nord Anglia International School Shanghai, Pudong such a special place to learn.

Higher Education preparation can sometimes feel like an insurmountable ascent of selecting locations, sifting through world rankings, finalising predicted grades and sitting examinations when your child is in their final years of secondary school.

Students in the Model United Nations CCA had the opportunity to represent NAIS Pudong at the Shanghai Singapore International Model United Nations (SSIMUN) conference.

NAIS Pudong encourages students to think beyond where they might attend university. We provide the resources and support necessary for students to think critically about their future and how to position themselves in a rapidly changing world in terms of their education needs.

At Nord Anglia International School Shanghai, Pudong, Early Years education is where our children build the all-important foundations for their future development within a truly international setting, ready for the countless opportunities ahead.

All parents know that the best schools are the ones that have a clear set of values, a shared vision, and a common purpose. This culture of positive learning is built up over time as a collaborative venture between students, teachers, the school itself, and parents, instead of being a fixed blueprint for every school, class, and child.
