Most parents have infinite yearning for the International Department of Shanghai High School, but they are unable to do it. Although the International Department of Shanghai is not in the list of 21 international schools in Shanghai, its enrollment is only for the children of foreigners working in Shanghai or Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and the interview is no less difficult than the famous schools in the system, and the interview at the kindergarten stage includes Chinese examination, English examination, mathematical logical thinking, and activity examination, requiring students' English ability to reach the level of daily conversation, it can be said that the enrollment and admission of the International Department of Shanghai Central School is not easy.
Although it is the international department of a public middle school, the international department of Shanghai High School is not only set up in high school, but is more inclined to be a complete international school, covering from elementary school to high school in addition to kindergarten. Out of the expectation of the strength of high school, many parents have been preparing for the primary school interview of the International Department of Shanghai High School since the kindergarten class, so that they can directly enjoy the best quality international education resources in the future.
Backed by the solid resources of the strongest middle school in Shanghai, the International Department of Shanghai High School has an irreproachable allocation in Chinese education, with a master's degree or above from 985 universities in China and famous overseas schools as the basic equipment, and its academic strength is extremely strong.

The curriculum of the International Division of Shanghai High School consists of three parts: American courses, IBDP courses, and AP courses. The American-like curriculum combines the American curriculum with the Chinese curriculum, taking the mathematics curriculum as an example, combining the characteristics of Chinese mathematics teaching, with both breadth and depth. Language courses are graded according to the student's language ability, and after meeting the requirements, they can move on to the next level of study.

The International Department of Shanghai High School is equivalent to a public regular army in an international school, and its teaching style is quite different from that of a real school for foreign children, focusing on students' academic performance, leaving students with insufficient time for extracurricular exploration and cultural and sports development, and the learning pressure may be higher than that of students on the college entrance examination track.
