Since its establishment, Huixiao has attached great importance to the construction of its teaching staff. Its small-class teaching model and diversified evaluation methods have continuously attracted outstanding teachers from different fields to join actively. They are supported by both backbone teachers with excellent teaching achievements and high-quality teachers from both domestic and overseas.
In the team, 100% of the teachers are positive discipline lecturers, holding relevant mental health certificates, and 32% of them have graduate degrees or above. The school not only focuses on teachers' academic qualifications and professional abilities, but also values whether they possess an educational sentiment of "having light in their eyes and love in their hearts".
The school provides various forms of training to help teachers grow. Conceptual training, professional training, and on-the-job research are all important ways for the school to cultivate teachers. Every week, there are subject research and teaching, collective lesson planning, class teacher skills training, and history teacher training. The school regularly introduces high-quality external training resources into the campus. They also leverage the excellent platform of Huixiao to achieve their educational ideals through comprehensive career planning and systematic team training for teachers.
The school curriculum consists of three parts: basic courses, thematic courses, and extended courses.
Basic courses: The basic courses at Huixiao are designed in accordance with national requirements, integrating national, local, and school-based curricula. These courses serve as the foundation for children's learning. Every child at Huixiao must have a solid foundation before moving on to more systematic and in-depth learning.
Thematic courses: The thematic courses at Huixiao are conducted in the form of PBL, or project-based learning, which is an interdisciplinary learning approach.
In simple terms, it involves integrating knowledge from different disciplines and allowing students to learn by solving a real-world problem. This approach breaks down the barriers between disciplines, ensuring that children's knowledge is no longer fragmented but forms a closely interconnected whole. This not only stimulates children's enthusiasm for learning and sense of innovation, but also enhances their problem-solving abilities.
Extended Courses: Huixiao has specially designed extended courses that are tailored to each child's unique talents and potential. The course content is rich, covering areas such as humanities and society, artistic aesthetics, physical health, and thinking and technology. The aim is to cater to children's diverse interests and developmental needs, allowing each child to discover their strengths and grow with confidence.
"Big Chinese": including drama and traditional Chinese culture, it aims to enhance students' language expression ability, cultivate their writing and reading skills, help them understand the profound heritage of Chinese culture, and foster their love for traditional culture
Cambridge English curriculum: Situational, high-capacity, and full-English input are the principles of school English teaching. The teaching is conducted in collaboration between Chinese and foreign teachers, with foreign teachers taking the lead in the lower grades, gradually transitioning to Chinese teachers taking the lead in the higher grades.
Emotional Courses: The school has offered emotional courses centered around sensory integration, individual psychological counseling, group psychological counseling, sandplay, and catharsis.
English Mathematics: Strengthen both English and mathematical abilities, and cultivate disciplinary thinking skills in another language background.
PBL (Project-Based Learning): Students conduct problem-based in-depth learning in groups, following the process of introduction, knowledge accumulation, iterative exploration, reflective evaluation, and achievement presentation.
The school has established an "integrated education of the five dimensions" curriculum ecosystem, and has now offered dozens of high-quality elective courses covering seven major fields:
In theArt Aestheticssection, we offer workshops on dance, oil pastel creation, acrylic painting, and creative art that integrates across disciplines;
The field of technological innovationSet up graphical programming, BDS robot development, and international authoritative competition training;
Sports HealthThe module encompasses training for three major school teams: football, basketball, and track and field, as well as specialty programs such as taekwondo and Chinese martial arts;
Language and LiteratureThe direction is to develop courses such as foreign teacher oral salons and creative writing workshops;
Inheritance of traditional cultureThe event features brush calligraphy, intangible cultural heritage handicrafts, and ethnic instrumental music ensembles;
Academic literacyCultivation includes mathematical thinking training;
Additionally, special art education courses such as paper craft, clay sculpture, African drums, and choir are offered.
Adopting a three-tier training model of "foundation + expansion + competition", we achieve an organic connection between interest cultivation and professional development through project-based learning.
Huixiao has adopted the "family-style management" model for nearly 20 years,Each family consists of children from grade one to grade six, breaking the constraints of age and gender.
Children experience different roles within the family, learn to divide and cooperate, cultivate communication skills, and participate in management. The school establishes a "Myriad Industries Co., Ltd." responsible for setting up job types, signing employment contracts, and managing, allowing children to earn money through labor; the "Swan Bank" handles financial services,Family income is deposited into a savings passbook, and can be exchanged after accumulating funds. This, combined with monthly themed outings, allows children to experience and learn in real-life scenarios.As a guide, the historian encourages children to grow independently and bravely face setbacks and failures.
Of course not. Comprehensive quality development and academic performance have never been in conflict. Schools certainly care about grades, but they won't sacrifice students' overall development for grades. Huixiao has always had a secret to maintaining a balance between the two, and its graduates are an important manifestation of this.
School graduates have dual career paths,80% of the routes are domestic, and 20% are international;The secondary schools with the highest number of students advancing to higher grades in the past three years are Tianhe Provincial High School and Tianhe Foreign Language School. Other schools include Affiliated High School of South China Normal University, Affiliated High School of Guangdong University of Technology, and Huijing Experimental Middle School. International schools often choose Aisha and Bethesda.
