YCIS Shanghai is a fully-accredited school, recognized by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) and the Council of International Schools (CIS), and the only school in China to have received the Cambridge Award for Excellence in Education.
The school's unique multicultural and bilingual approach to education is recognized worldwide and helps distinguish students in a globally competitive environment.
To cultivate this cultural experience for students, YCIS campuses are led jointly by two Co-Principals: one international and one Chinese.
This system is mirrored in their Early Childhood and Primary classrooms, with their unique Co-Teaching model, which supports the development of students' bilingual and cross-cultural skills.
