Challenges in international teacher recruitment, the importance of individualized learning, student global mobility trends and a rising acceptance of technology in education: these are the four key trends that led our organization to embrace blended learning for the long-run. Blended learning programs have been introduced and are growing within our schools as a core element of our DNA, and as a unique and pioneering way of giving access to students in China to topics, skills, pedagogies, and educators they would otherwise not have access to as part of their traditional school timetables.

In this session, we will first share a brief introduction to the history our group of schools and then delve into the specifics of our blended learning programs, including an overview of how the model works, the role of online and offline teachers, technology used, benefits to key stakeholders as well as the main success factors we are focusing on to continuously improve the model.
