中国好教育，醉美龙游湖！
来这里，走更远！
Rugao International Academy (RIA) is located in Rugao, a city known since ancient times for the longevity of its citizens. Often called a “green treasure” or the “Yangtze River’s Pearl,” it is an education sanctuary located in the scenic area of Longyouhu Lake, adjacent to the Yancheng-Nantong High-Speed Railway Station (Rugao South Station).
RIA is a 15-year K-12 school with an early learning center, an elementary school, a junior high school, and both domestic and international high schools. The maximum enrollment is 3,000 students.
Covering an area of 54 acres, with a total building area of 150,000 square meters and a total investment of 1 billion RMB yuan, the campus features picturesque gardens, with open classrooms where energy and stillness find their places. Every space including the landscape is for learning. The Campus features educational buildings, dormitories, and teacher residences as well as a gymnasium, swimming pool, libraries, United Nations Hall, a K-12 Research Center, the Dream Workshop, the Dream Gallery (the visual arts center), and the Dream Stage (the performing arts center), all perfectly laid out for everyone to access.
While school divisions are headed by highly-esteemed principals, the faculty is composed of an outstanding mix of highly qualified experienced and young teachers. Each grade also has a certified foreign teacher on staff.
“To attain righteousness and to achieve wisdom.” This is our school’s motto. To live up to these words, our school’s operational strategy is to be "modern, high-quality, and international." Operating around the educational philosophy "to establish a life with virtue and to live with wisdom," we share our founders’ vision of building a school with distinction, connecting instruction to the real-life needs of our students and the world. To facilitate these goals, classes are organized into a multi-level structure that aims to prepare students for today and tomorrow. The program is designed to integrate students’ physical, mental, moral, and intellectual learning into our curriculum. Every student at RIA will become citizens of the world, with a love for their families and their country, an international vision, and the tools they need to create the future.
With small class sizes (fewer than 25 in K and high school; fewer than 30 in elementary and junior high school), lead and assistant teachers work together in every class to stimulate and nurture students’ minds with wisdom and morality. RIA also implements a mentoring system of one mentor for 4 to 5 students to provide advisory support, including academic, research, and travel outside of school.
RIA’s curriculum is cutting-edge with an age-appropriate, scientific structure that features rich and diverse content, and special features unlike any other. The elementary and junior high schools advance the high-quality Chinese National Standard Curriculum, the BFSU curriculum, and the CISA curriculum, which focuses on integrating Chinese studies and international literacy of scientific spirit and artistic character, offering a wide range of curriculum options. The early learning center implements an integrated curriculum with a “Seedling Curriculum” to lay the foundation for future learning. The domestic high school adopts the new college entrance examination curriculum which focuses on preparing students to be competitive on the college entrance examination. Finally, the international high school adopts the Cambridge A-Level courses to help students apply to well-known universities abroad.
RIA works in cooperation with the International Education Group of BFSU and has become the PASS Study Base, the Cambridge English Exemplary School, and the BFSU Rugao International Curriculum Center (housed in the international high school on campus). RIA is accredited as a "Cambridge International School" and an officially authorized "A-Level Test Center" by the Cambridge University International Assessment International Education (CAIE). The Cambridge A-Level Test Center code for the school is CN766. At the same time, the school also allies with well-known schools domestically and abroad to further the mission of "inter-school connection, academic research collaboration, classroom interaction, and student exchange visits."
RIA, an exemplary education model in China!
