We nurture high aspirations for each and every one of our students. Many achieve great academic results and aim for places at the best universities around the world, while others discover a passion or special talent. Our day-to-day focus is on helping pupils to thrive in their own unique way. 

We offer a rich and varied curriculum that allows pupils to explore the breadth and depth of their abilities. Work is underpinned by a highly dedicated teaching body. Small class sizes and low student to teacher ratio mean that pupils can receive the support they require to make good progress both academically and in their personal development. 

BSN has preserved a strong sense of community since its foundation and every member of the school, young or old, has many opportunities to contribute to the welfare of the school community. We are proud of the roles our families play in our school and in turn the role we play in their lives during their time at in Nanjing.

Committed and creative, you will be reflective on your own teaching and student outcomes, seeking out and implementing new ideas and innovative methods to raise the school’s level of achievement.

Keen to collaborate and share your specialist expertise, you will be a fitting ambassador for the school. You will communicate with confidence across diverse audiences and situations, using your expertise to build strong relationships with parents and students. You will also be able to meet visa-related restrictions for working in China, including holding a bachelor’s degree and have a minimum of two years full-time related teaching experience.
