Q1

What is the relationship between Tungwah Wenzel International School (TWIS) and other schools under Tungwah Education Group (TWEG)?

Although TWIS is part of the Tungwah Education Group and shares its vision for academic excellence, the goals are very different.

 

TWIS is an authentic international school in every sense of the word – from its philosophy, organization, curriculum instruction and assessment. From primary school to high school, TWIS offers the International Baccalaureate (IB) programmes, which is recognized worldwide as a progressive ‘thinking’ curriculum. 

 

While TWEG follows the national curriculum to prepare students for the Gawkow, TWIS aims to produce internationally-minded students with a well-rounded personality who are ready for the next chapter of lives, whether to study overseas or attend the international div of outstanding Chinese universities by preparing students to sit for the gold standard of international education, the IB diploma.

 

On the other hand, the international div of Tungwah Senior High School is affiliated to Tungwah Senior High School, with high school and A-level and AP curriculum.

 

Although some facilities are shared by both schools of TWIS and Tungwah Senior High School at Songshan Lake, there is very little interaction between them as their mission and vision are completely different. TWIS has its own school board and the day-to-day operations of the school is under the leadership of a well-seasoned expatriate head.

Q2

Does Tungwah Wenzel International School include kindergarten?

The international div of the kindergarten is part of the Tungwah Education group, but the TWIS head of school oversees the curriculum and instruction which includes the Montessori approach and the PYP. Children who attend the international kindergarten are assured that they can transition smoothly to TWIS.

Q3

Has TWIS obtained its IB authorization?

Only on its second year of existence, TWIS is proud of the milestones reached in its IB journey. The school is currently an IB candidate school for PYP, MYP and DP, and expecting to complete the authorization process next academic year.

Q4

Where do TWIS graduates go?

Currently, the oldest cohort at TWIS is still three years away from graduation. However, student orientation regarding career and university choices have already started in order to support them in making an informed decision regarding their subject choices in the Diploma Programme (DP). One of the strengths of the DP is its emphasis on providing counseling and a robust support system when it comes to university application in such a way that families actually no longer have a need to hire expensive educational consultants.


Q5

东华文泽学校采用什么体系?

Which kind of curriculum that TWIS chooses to adopt?

TWIS采用IB课程体系,提供IB小学项目(PYP)、IB中学项目(MYP)以及IB大学预科项目(DP),因为在过去的50年中,IB课程一直是全球知名大学的优先选择,IB学术严谨,可以为学生准备好面对大学以及日后的挑战。

东华文泽学校的师资如何?

Q5

Which kind of curriculum that TWIS chooses to adopt?

TWIS chooses to become an IB continuum school offering the Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP) because for the past 50 years, the IB has continued to be the leading choice of prestigious universities for the IB’s academic rigor that prepares students for the challenges of college and beyond.


Q6

Who are the teachers at TWIS?

TWIS is delighted to be joined by qualified and experienced teachers from over 10  countries. These teachers share the same passion and commitment to ‘make the world a better place through education’, which is aligned with the IB philosophy.


As being tolerant is part of the TWIS STRIVE values, we do not discriminate in our hiring procedures. We want to set good example to our students by embracing diversity, and not judging others because of the color of their skin.

  

As English is the primary medium of instruction, teachers' bilingual or multilingual skills inspire students and enable them to speak and write fluently in English and learn other world languages. 


Q7

The current teacher-student ratio is 1:5, which allows for individualized, personal learning and ensures that no one ‘passes under the radar.’ Students’ individual needs are met under the care of their teachers and teaching assistants.

Q12

Does TWIS offer boarding?

Yes! We have a Boarding Programme that reinforces the skills and values we promote during school hours. Each room is shared by a maximum of 4 students to give students their personal space but at the same time encourage camaraderie and interaction.

Q13

Does TWIS have evening classes?

The TWIS boarding programme is based on a ‘home away from home’ ethos. Once boarders have finished their homework, they can engage in activities of their own choosing, which is what they would do if they were at home.  For example, our PYP students participate in read-aloud sessions while others may prefer board games. Some students may opt to practice their musical instrument while others prefer to do fitness training or shoot some hoops.

Q14

What is a typical schedule for boarding students?

At 16:00, all boarders are scattered around the campus engaged in various sporting, intellectual, musical, artistic or technological pursuits under the CASE program (creativity, activity, service and English). Afterward, they all go to the cafeteria for dinner before going up to their rooms for some downtime. Boarders are supervised by our house tutors and caregivers from 18:00 – 20:00 while they complete their homework or engage in other activities.


For PYP, lights off at 21:00 while it’s bedtime at 21:30 for older students.


As our students do not have ‘nap time’ during the day, we need to ensure that they have a good night’s rest to wake up refreshed to face a new exciting day of learning at TWIS.

Q15

How is the management of smart phones and other electronic devices at TWIS?

Being cognizant that screen addiction is a new challenge that this new generation faces, the use of e-device is strictly controlled at TWIS. Student laptops are monitored so that their use remains for academic purposes only, while internet access is restricted at a certain time.


Students do not bring their smartphones to school or the boarding house but are encouraged to bring a ‘dumb’ phone to call mom and dad to share how their day went. TWIS believes that parents of boarders should not become ‘weekend’ parents as they alienate themselves from their children. Parents should always take an active role in the upbringing of their children.

Q16

As parents, how can you help your child(ren) be happy and successful at TWIS?

Parents need to be supportive of their children, and celebrate success no matter how small it may be at the beginning. Your children are on their way to becoming bilingual or multi-lingual. With this new feat, you will also see how their thinking are stretched.


Expect us to teach your children differently. We do not ask students to memorize random vocabulary without understanding how these words are used contextually. We do not have a single textbook for every subject but we use various major resources, and most of the time students are the ones who search for the answers.


In order to understand what makes a quality international education different, we expect parents to participate in various school activities, including workshops, conferences, meet-and-greets, and performances,  to better understand the TWIS school life and the IB curriculum.


The more parents know and understand what we offer, the better it is for families and the school.


Teachers and staff can be reached via WeCom, phone lines and email. The school’s learning management system is called Managebac, while our home-school communication tools are School365 and WeCom.
