Referred to as Guangwai Foreign School, it is a boarding school covering primary school, junior high school and high school under Guangdong University of Foreign Studies Education Group, and is a first-class school in Guangdong Province, which has won the honorary titles of "National Excellent Private School" and "Guangdong Province Private Education Strength School". Every year, during the enrollment season, Guangwai School is one of the most competitive battlefields for "kindergarten to primary school".
Guangwai School is located in Dalang, Baiyun District, covering an area of 320 acres, the campus atmosphere is beautiful, the trees on both sides of the school road are verdant, there are black swans roaming in the Swan Lake, and the windows are green from the classroom, and every place is a picturesque scenery. It not only has a 400-meter sports field, 30 basketball courts, but also standard swimming pools, gymnasiums, dance studios, piano rooms, choir rooms, martial arts training rooms and other facilities, and the audio-visual equipment in the classrooms is even more advanced.
As a boarding school, life is the primary concern of parents. The living conditions of the school are difficult to pick, and they are not stingy in terms of the most important food, because the tuition fee has included the food fee, so there is no need to swipe the card to eat, five meals a day, including breakfast, recess meal, lunch, dinner, supper, each meal is not left behind, the dishes are rich, the meat and vegetables are balanced, and the nutritional needs of primary school students can be taken care of. There is no commissary in other schools, which can largely eliminate the dependence of primary school students on snacks. The first year is a large dormitory, about 20 people in a room, each class has 2 life teachers, and each dormitory is accompanied by a teacher. There are 6 people in one room for the second grade and above, and each class is equipped with 1 life teacher.
English is the teaching feature of Guangzhou Foreign School, the English textbook is mainly based on the original Longman textbook in Hong Kong, and foreign teachers are offered in the primary school stage, with 2 periods per week for the first and second grades and 1 session per week for other grades. In the first grade, the school's own textbooks are used in the first grade, and the textbooks in the upper grades are used in the people's education version.
The abundance of extracurricular activities is the common evaluation of all students to the school, and the school insists on educating people through activities and cultivating students' abilities in all aspects of the activities. In addition to the five major festivals (Reading Festival, English Festival, Art Festival, Art Festival, Science and Technology Festival), activities such as the "Star of Foreign Schools" selection, "Moot Court", "Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival", "Chinese-English Debate Competition" and "Model United Nations" are also loved by students.
Although primary school students from other schools can go directly to junior high school and solve the problem of junior high school and junior high school in one stop, Guangwai Foreign School Middle School is not very prominent among private middle schools in Guangzhou. There is another way of thinking about the promotion of foreign schools, Guangwai Foreign School is one of the 16 foreign Chinese schools in the country with the qualification of recommended students, and if the students are good enough, they can also get guaranteed places. The tuition fee of Guangwai foreign schools adopts a one-fee system, which is 50,000 yuan/year for primary schools, including room and board, school bus and books.
Although these two schools belong to the Guangdong University of Foreign Studies Education Group, there are still some differences, here are a few points for parents to distinguish: the foreign school is located in Dalang, Baiyun District, and the affiliated primary school is located in the Guangwai campus; The outer school is a boarding school, and the attached primary school is a day school; The outer school has three divisions: primary, junior high and high school, and the attached primary school only has primary school and junior high school; The tuition fee of other schools is higher than that of the attached primary school.
