Global experience

Providing the right environment for children to thrive is more than simply having the facilities to cater for them. Wallace explains, "As part of the Nord Anglia Education family of 31 schools across 13 countries, we are in the enviable position of being able to provide students with a truly global education experience. Our students at BISS Pudong are active participants in the Nord Anglia Education Global Classroom which links students and teachers around the globe in challenging activities across a range of disciplines, including debates, the arts, sciences and mathematics. What's more, we have a whole global community of highly trained and dedicated teachers who support the students every step of the way."

The latest development in this global experience is the Global Orchestra which will give talented music students from Nord Anglia Education schools around the world the opportunity to participate in a truly global orchestra which will gather for the first time in July this year in New York.
