Good partner schools know what is expected of a modern, world-class curriculum and how it is best taught. Curriculum building for a new school is a complex task and getting this right quickly is an important factor in establishing a local reputation.
These days, a good partner school will offer much more than a knowledge of a routine, exam-based curriculum. Expect to find offers of entrepreneurial and enterprise-based education, project-based learning, environmental learning, high level tech programmes that will include AI and community outreach programmes, all of which can be brought to the new school and started as soon as it opens.
The UK partner school’s experience of digital infrastructure needed to drive and support the educational and administrative architecture of the school will be invaluable. Even if you choose to use or develop local IT systems with which to run the school, the early advice and supervision of the educational IT experts at the partner school will be a major factor in assuring the stability and efficiency of the new systems, which need to be up and running 12 months in advance of opening to support international recruitment and student admissions.
