Dr. Pang also said: CISS is a high-level international school founded by AKD International INC in partnership with the Education Department of New Brunswick, Canada. Founded in 2017, CISS is the first international school established by AKD International INC in northeast China. It is also a school to fill the gap in the development of international education in Liaoning province. Our school is 15-year consistent system; there are senor high school, junior middle school, primary school, and kindergarten, introducing advanced Canadian curriculum system on the basis of English. Cultivating all-round development of high-quality international talent is our fundamental purpose. We accept children of foreign nationals working in Liaoning, people with green cards as well as Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan personnel, let them fully enjoy high quality international education. After more than a year of development, the school has passed the strict examination of IBO and obtained the qualification to offer full IB programs, becoming the first international school in Liaoning province to offer full IB programs.
For more than a year, the school has received strong support from the local government and community, as well as attention from European Union Chamber of Commerce, Hong Kong China Chamber of Commerce and American Chamber of Commerce, as well as foreign enterprises in Shenyang, we have attracted many children of employees of foreign-funded enterprises in Shenyang, including BBA to study in our school. Especially during the epidemic this year, in order to protect students from the impact of the epidemic and successfully complete their studies, the school set up the anti-epidemic team in no time, making it the only international school in Shenyang where all the teachers were working normally during the epidemic. During the school closure period, teachers carefully designed online courses, and we opened international club ECA, so that students also have made great progress and greater harvest in the holiday. After the beginning of the new school year, against the backdrop of the general downturn in the whole industry, the number of students in CISS has risen instead of falling. It is proof that our efforts have been highly recognized by students and parents. This year, we will also be offering scholarships to MYP students with excellent academic performance to encourage more students to stand out.
Dr. Pang invites all guests to visit CISS and “Welcome to send your children to our school. We will provide excellent learning environment and the best international education for our children. At the same time, we also welcome major chambers of commerce and foreign-funded institutions in Shenyang to carry out all-round cooperation with us and jointly assist local development.”
