Harrow International School Beijing (北京哈罗英国学校) is a private school for children of foreign personnel located in Chaoyang, Beijing.[4]

Harrow Beijing is a coeducational day school that initially taught pupils from age 11, unlike its namesake in the United Kingdom, which only teaches boys and begins instruction when its students are 13.[5]

History

[edit]

Harrow Beijing opened in 2005. It was the second British-style public school to open in China, after Dulwich College, which had opened a branch in Shanghai in 2004 and a branch in Beijing in 2005. It was the second international Harrow school to open, after Harrow International School, Bangkok. As of 2 December 2006 Harrow Beijing had 150 students.[5]

In 2022, due to changes in Chinese laws, the school will rename itself as the "Lide" School (北京市朝阳区礼德学校).[6]

Affiliations

Harrow International School Beijing is operated by a private company, Harrow Asia Limited. Harrow Asia Limited also operates Harrow International School, Bangkok.

In 2006, Harrow International School gained accreditation from the Council of International Schools (CIS).[7] Harrow International School Beijing is also a member of the Federation of British International Schools in South East Asia and East Asia (FOBISSEA).[8] Harrow International School Beijing is fully accredited by all the British Examinations Authorities including Edexcel, CIE, AQA and OCR.

Campuses

[edit]
Harrow Beijing City Campus in Anzhenxili, for younger students

Harrow has two campuses: Hegezhuang Campus in Hegezhuang Village (何各庄村), Cuigezhuang Township [zh], Chaoyang District; and the City Campus in Anzhenxili (安贞西里), also in Chaoyang District.[9] The former has year 2 through the end of sixth form, while the latter has the "early years" and year 1.[10] Previously the institution had a single campus in Anzhenxili,[11] and later had a primary school in Tongzhou District with secondary facilities in Anzhenxili.[12] The current Hegezhuang Campus opened in 2013 with the other two campuses closed. Anzhenxili re-opened in 2018 with younger students.[13]

Curriculum

[edit]

The curriculum of Harrow in Beijing is based on the National Curriculum for England and Wales.[14] Students study A-Levels, GCSE, and other British qualifications.[15]

Alumni

[edit]

Despite being listed as foreign personnel school, its website does claim to enroll both Chinese and foreign students.
