Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Alcanta International College opened in 2011 and has graduated multiple cohorts since then. The school was authorized as an IB World School on 10 February 2012. AIC operates as part of the Alcanta education group and has been associated with Guangzhou Xinya Senior High School in its recent institutional development; the school's website also records a provincial approval in May 2025 for a Sino‑foreign cooperation project with Abbotsholme School (UK).
AIC describes a multicultural student body—approximately 20% of students are international—which the school says contributes to daily cross‑cultural exchange. The school's calendar and news feed record regular community activities such as assemblies, TOK events and themed celebrations; external reports and school posts describe student‑led Mid‑Autumn Festival assemblies and other cultural programming. These activities are presented as regular parts of campus life and student learning.
The school website and news items show organized parent activities including a Parent Orientation and an "AIC Parents Workshop," and school posts reference a parents committee (家委会) participating in events such as graduation ceremonies. These items indicate parents meet with staff for orientation, workshops and event participation, and that a parents' committee exists. Publicly available pages do not provide a standalone PTA constitution or a detailed, up‑to‑date PTA event calendar; most references appear in news posts and the school calendar. If you'd like, I can search the school's news archive or contact the school for more detailed or current PTA documents and recent activities.
Alcanta International College (AIC) is an international secondary school in Guangzhou that was established in 2011. The school offers multiple pathways including the IB Diploma Programme, Cambridge IGCSE and A‑Level options alongside a Chinese senior‑high track; class size is described on the site as small-group teaching (about 20 students per class). AIC reports that around 20% of students are international, and the campus includes dormitory accommodation with scheduled boarding check‑ins. The website also highlights subject offerings across sciences, maths, languages, visual and performing arts, and lists extracurricular activities such as business competitions, student council and arts exhibitions. The school's site does not publish annual tuition figures or a total pupil count. (Sources: AIC website pages on About/Academics, IGCSE/IB program pages, facilities and admissions).
