Quote
At Beijing Academy, we support students' creative growth. Three metaphors best describe our approach.
A Forest
We want our school to offer the diversity of a tropical forest, respecting each child's differences and supporting every student in becoming their best self.
A Fishery
True education opens a "fishery" of opportunity, helping children develop the courage to brave the waves, the wisdom to steer their ships, and the creativity to chart their own course.
An Orchestra
In an orchestra, each person expresses their own voice and listens to others. We help children become their best selves and contribute to society.
— Xia Qingfeng, Principal of Beijing Academy
