Principal's Message

Welcome to the Nanjing Foreign Language School British Columbia Academy (NFLS BCA)!

At NFLS BCA, we are dedicated to fostering an environment that nurtures academic excellence, personal growth, and global citizenship. Our unique dual diploma program allows students to graduate with both a British Columbia (BC) secondary school diploma and a Chinese secondary school diploma. This comprehensive approach ensures that our students are well-prepared for higher education in both Chinese and international contexts.

Our curriculum is designed to challenge and inspire students. With a wide range of subjects and 14 Advanced Placement (AP) courses, including the prestigious AP Capstone Diploma program, we provide opportunities for students to pursue college-level studies while still in high school. This rigorous academic program equips our students with the critical thinking, creativity, and resilience needed to excel in higher education and beyond.

The success of our graduates is a testament to the strength of our educational programs. Over the past five years, our students have been accepted into some of the most prestigious universities around the world, including top-tier institutions in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and Hong Kong SAR. Our graduates have gone on to study at renowned universities such as the University of Toronto, University of British Columbia, McGill University, University of Melbourne, and the University of Hong Kong, among others.

At NFLS BCA, we believe in the holistic development of our students. Our co-curricular activities, including sports, arts, and various clubs, help students develop leadership skills, teamwork, and a sense of community. Additionally, students are required to complete a minimum of 30 hours of community service each school year, fostering a sense of social responsibility and encouraging them to contribute positively to their communities.

Our teaching and learning environment is supportive and challenging. We follow an “English only” policy in classrooms and hallways during school hours to enhance students’ English language proficiency. Our faculty comprises experienced and certified teachers who are dedicated to providing high-quality education and supporting the academic and personal growth of our students.

We value the partnership between home and school and strive to maintain open and transparent communication with parents. Regular meetings and reports keep parents informed about their child’s progress and address any concerns they may have. Together, we can ensure that our students are well-prepared for the future.

NFLS BCA is also a dynamic and innovative place to work. We are always looking for passionate and dedicated educators to join our team. We offer a collaborative and supportive work environment where teachers can grow professionally and make a meaningful impact on the lives of our students.

At NFLS BCA, we believe in the power of education to transform lives. Our mission is to provide a holistic education that prepares our students for success in both Chinese and international contexts. We are proud of our diverse and inclusive community, where every student is valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. Thank you for being a part of our journey. Together, we can achieve great things.

Warm regards,

Theo Johnson
