Mission and Strategy

Nanjing International School is an inclusive learning community inspiring international mindedness, personal excellence, creative thinking.

We want to live our mission. In order to bring our mission more to life for our students we launched a new strategy. We have two clear goals: Student Voice and Choice and Burst the Bubble.

Student Voice and Choice

We believe that students should have an authentic voice in choosing what and how they learn to allow them to achieve personal excellence, to feel included and to think creatively.

Burst the Bubble

We believe that developing the disposition of international mindedness will make our students better equipped young adults to engender understanding in those around them. China is our campus for learning and we need to get more engaged in our host country to genuinely feel a sense of international mindedness.
