YCIS is committed to offering a global education as evidenced in our history and by major accrediting bodies.
Since 1932, Yew Chung has cultivated an educational philosophy that emphasises:
- A fully rounded and balanced education which nurtures the whole child: academically, socially and spiritually;
- An emphasis on academic excellence, dual language acquisition and the tools for success in a globalised world;
- A bilingual and multicultural learning environment which fosters respect for diversity;
- A supportive and nurturing school life which seeks to produce confident, balanced and socially responsible individuals.
YCIS Shanghai has been reviewed by accrediting bodies of Council of International Schools (CIS), New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) and National Centre for School Curriculum and Textbook Development (NCCT) for adherence to the YCIS philosophy and objectives. Out of over 100 international schools in China, YCIS Shanghai is one of only 5 international schools to hold the prestigious joint accreditations through CIS, NEASC and NCCT.
