At ISA Science City, students from primary school onwards are required to take part in annual camp teaching. This is a teaching method that allows students to get out of the classroom and engage in practical activities, observe phenomena, search for answers and solve problems in a natural environment. It helps to develop students' practical skills and innovative spirit, improve teamwork and communication between students, and strengthen their physical and mental qualities.

The Secondary School of ISA Science City has a dedicated team of English Support Teachers who are committed to helping students improve their English language skills and progress in their English learning. As an IB International School, English is not only the language of instruction, but also plays a vital role in the way students communicate with teachers and work in groups with their peers. The school has a tiered approach to teaching students at different levels of English proficiency, and for students who need to improve their English, the role of the Language Support Teaching Team comes to the fore.
Professional learning for academic staff is an integral part of the education field as, just like students, it allows us to reflect on our prior knowledge and connect this to new concepts, research and evidence-based practices which can improve our teaching and ultimately student outcomes.
Field trips are excellent ways to enhance learning experiences outside the confines of a classroom. They offer students a chance to witness real-world applications of their studies and deepen their understanding of various subjects.
At ISA Science City, we are proud to be an international school in China that goes beyond academic excellence. We understand the importance of equipping our students with the skills, knowledge and global perspective needed to thrive in an ever-changing world. Through our various programmes and initiatives, we promote intercultural understanding, cross-cultural communication, global citizenship, multilingualism and international awareness. These elements form the foundation of our school's mission to prepare students to be leaders and creators in the next age of China.
