“如何界定一所优秀的英式国际学校？”

“哈罗上海为何是杰出的国际学校？”

“是否有标准来衡量哈罗上海是符合资格的英式学校？”

关注选择英式体系国际学校的家长们常提出类似疑问。

英国私校协会评估监督机构ISI（全称Independent Schools Inspectorate），是由英国政府批准，专门考察评估英国本土和私立海外分校的机构。ISI向英国教育部（DfE）报告该校是否符合海外英式学校标准（BSO）。检查团会进行全方位考察，评估办学和教育质量以及保障学生健康安全等方面的合规性。这是国际学校认证体系中最严格的一种。

哈罗上海以优异的成绩通过英国私校协会评估监督机构ISI检查和监管，现已成为中国大陆首批获颁“英国海外学校”（British School Overseas）认证的学校之一。这意味着，哈罗上海获得英国教育部的认可，其教学质量与英国本土私校标准保持一致。

此次考察团一行由英国资深督学领衔，成员中还包括两位经验丰富的国际学校校长，他们同样具备深厚的督学背景。考察团对学校的印象颇深，给予的最终评分甚至高于学校的自我评估。他们在所有类别中都将学校置于或接近榜首。

是什么给考察团留下了

深刻印象？

学术卓越

哈罗上海采用英国国家课程体系，衔接IGCSE与A Level，与英国本土课程保持一致。立足上海，同时融入了中文及中国文化课程，助力学生成长为具有全球视野的世界公民。过去四年中，我校A Level成绩平均73%为A*或A，远高于英国本土平均水平(26%)。IGCSE成绩同样出色，70%获得A*或A成绩，其中A*率更是达到了35%。数据显示，学生从入学起就逐步取得了良好的进步，学校整体学术表现强劲。

“在早期教育阶段，孩子们在充满激励的学习环境中迅速建立起自信，进步显著。小学生们在此坚实基础上成功构建了高质量的读写与算术能力。”督察员指出， “学校的学术表现始终保持稳定。学生们毕业时，已具备扎实的学术基础，能够顺利升入世界各地的顶尖大学，其中包括一些录取标准严苛的学府”。

广泛课程体系

考察团特别注意到哈罗上海课程的广度：“学生能够很好地提升他们的知识、技能和理解能力”。这得益于广泛课程体系，并辅以丰富多样的课外活动（ECAs）。哈罗上海提供超过150项必修课外活动，涵盖身体（体育）、心智（学术）和灵魂（艺术及其他）三个方面。除了马术、赛艇、棒球、STEAM和京剧等特色课程外，今年哈罗上海还新增了室内滑雪、射箭和潜水等新课程。“周六体育”课程现已面向学生开放。

沟通技能

考察团亦对学生们的沟通能力给予高度评价：“学生们能清晰表达自己的想法和观点。各年龄段的学生都能运用专业术语进行深入思考。”

在此前的TEDx Harrow演讲活动中，来自哈罗上海的学生们登上TED舞台，向世界展示他们卓越的演讲技巧和对未来世界的无限想象。

科技

在课程的其他领域，学生们对信息通信技术掌握娴熟，且他们知道如何利用技术成为创造者而非仅仅使用者。

在Free Thinking Week期间，十年级学生运用AI工具和Canva展示他们对自己过去与未来生活的构想。借助新引入的VR头盔，学生们在全球各地虚拟游览，环游世界。

紧密的社区

“学生有自己明确的个人发展计划。”

“学生有着强烈的归属感。”

“学生感到老师们对他们关怀备至。”

哈罗上海采取小班制教学，平均师生比接近1:7，确保每位学生都能获得充分的关注。在幼儿园，每班配置一名全职外籍教师、一名双语助教和一名保育员。在小学部，外籍班主任主导课堂，双语助教提供支持。根据能力水平的分层教学使每位学生都能按自己的步调进步，遵循其发展轨迹。

学生会分别加入四个不同的学院，这与英国哈罗公学的传统相契合。每位学科老师和学院导师都深刻了解学生的潜能及所需支持。全面的导师关怀体系为孩子提供了广阔的机会和个性化的关注。

我们欣喜地看到英国海外学校考察团（BSO）对我校卓越教育质量的认可。他们亲眼见证了我们这所温馨而卓越的学校，正以最佳状态培育哈罗学子们。

哈罗上海校长

“How do you define a good British international school?”

“Why does Harrow Shanghai claim to be an outstanding international school?”

“Is there a standard to measure whether Harrow Shanghai is a qualified British school?”

Parents interested in choosing a British curriculum international school often reach out with similar questions. Today, Harrow Shanghai will guide you through what makes an excellent British International School.

The Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) is a body approved by the British Government for the purpose of inspecting independent schools in England and overseas. ISI reports to the English Department for Education (DfE) on the extent to which schools meet the Standards for British Schools Overseas (BSO). The inspection is a combined one of Educational Quality and Compliance. This is the most rigorous of the international school accreditation systems.

Harrow Shanghai, which offers an authentic British education for students, has been inspected by the British Independent Schools Inspectorate and awarded “BSO” (British Schools Overseas) status. It is delighted to announce that Harrow Shanghai has passed with flying colours.

The inspection team was led by one of the UK’s most experienced inspectors, and it included two experienced international Heads who were also very experienced inspectors. They were impressed by the school and agreed with our self-evaluation, actually rating us higher than the school did. They placed us at or near the top of the scale in all categories.

Let’s see what impressed

the inspectors.

Academic Excellence

Harrow Shanghai adopts the British National Curriculum, bridging IGCSE and A Level, staying in line with the curriculum in the UK. Rooted in Shanghai, also integrate Mandarin and Chinese culture courses, helping our students grow into global citizens with a global perspective.

The inspectors noted that an average of 73% of our A Level grades were an A*/A over the past four years, in comparison with the average of 26% in England. IGCSE scores were similarly strong with 70% achieving A*/A grades and 35% of them getting A*. Our data shows that pupils make good progress from their starting points, and that performance was strong across the school.

“Progress is rapid for children in the early years as they find their confidence in a stimulating learning environment. Pupils in Primary School successfully build on this strong foundation as shown in the quality of both their literacy and numeracy development.” The inspectors commented.

Academic performance is sustained throughout the school, as a result of which “by the time pupils leave the school, they are well equipped academically to transfer to a range of universities across the world, some of which have highly competitive entry criteria.”

A Broad Curriculum

The team also noted the breadth of our curriculum: “pupils develop their knowledge, skills and understanding to a good level. This is enabled through access to a broad curriculum which is supported by an extensive range of Extra-Curricular Activities (ECAs).

Harrow Shanghai offers over 150 mandatory extracurricular activities (ECAs) that cover body (sports), mind (academics), and soul (arts and others). In addition to specialized courses like Equestrian, Rowing, Baseball, STEAM, and Beijing Opera, Harrow Shanghai has introduced new activities this year, such as Indoor Skiing, Archery, and Scuba Diving. Our 'Saturday Sport' programme is also now available for students.

Communication Skills

The inspection team also noted the strength of our pupils’ communication skills. Students articulate their thoughts and ideas well. Students of all ages use subject-specific language which enables complex thought, and thus they have access to the highest range of marks in examinations.

Watch them in action at the recent TEDx Harrow, where students from Harrow Shanghai took to the TED stage to showcase their impressive lecture skills and imagination for the world of tomorrow.

Technology

In other areas of the curriculum, pupils are “well-versed and skilful” with ICT and “leaders successfully ensure they know how to use technology to be ‘creators and not just users’.

During Free Thinking Week, Year 10 students used an AI tool and Canva to display their ideas about their past and future lives. With the use of our new Class VR Headsets, Primary students experienced different places globally, alongside a trip around the worlds with their teachers.

Sense of Community

“The quality of the pupils’ personal development is excellent.”

“Pupils have a deep sense of belonging.”

Care is a strength: “pupils feel cared for by staff.”

Harrow Shanghai's small class sizes, with an average teacher-to-student ratio of nearly 1:7, ensure that each student receives ample attention. In the Early Year, each class is staffed with a full-time expat teacher, a bilingual teaching assistant, and a carer. In the Primary, expat class teachers lead the classes, supported by bilingual teaching assistants. The differentiated instruction based on level of ability allows each student to progress at their own pace and follow their developmental path.

Each student joins four distinct Houses, aligning with the tradition at Harrow School in the UK. Every teacher and house tutor are very aware of the students' potential and support they need. The comprehensive Pastoral Care system offers children vast opportunities and personalized attention.

We are delighted that the BSO inspectors have confirmed that our school is delivering an exceptional standard of education, and that they have seen our warm and wonderful school at its very best.
