58 Students and 10 Teachers from a Primary School and Secondary school in Beijing are spending part of their Summer at Our Ladies and St Joseph’s School in Hackney. Here they are taught a creative curriculum by London teachers with a focus on Art, Music and Creative Writing. The Chinese students are greatly impressed by the creativity and interactive nature of the lessons.
Visiting Headteacher Nina Zhou takes up the story “ This visit to a London school with the UK teachers is a fantastic experience for our students. It gives them a taste of the UK education system and we can feel the care and creativity that the London teachers give to our lessons” .
The visit is a great learning experince for the London based teachers as well , Teacher coordinator Lauren Dyer “ all the teachers involved greatly enjoyed teaching the Chinese students and found them to be very engaged particularly with the creative activities in Music, Art and writing. We look forward to them coming back in the future” .
