Languages of instruction in the bilingual program are English and Chinese. English is used across all bilingual-program courses, and Chinese functions as the acquisition language. The school uses cross-language teaching, with Mandarin as the medium through which content is learned and English is developed. The language-support approach is personalized, using student data to tailor language progression and close gaps in English proficiency.
Bilingual education is core to NAS Beijing. English instruction is integrated across the curriculum, and the aim is to teach authentic English that opens broader opportunities, not just a language. Our teachers have professional training in bilingual education and employ advanced bilingual teaching methods. Every course in the bilingual program is taught in English, and teaching emphasizes bilingual thinking through cross-language approaches.
NAS Beijing uses an immersion-style bilingual education approach. Chinese is used as the acquisition language alongside English instruction to support language development. The program applies cross-language teaching, using Chinese as a tool to help students master English. This approach fosters language proficiency within authentic classroom contexts rather than language training alone.
NAS Beijing (北京市顺义区诺德安达学校) is a bilingual day-and-boarding school for students aged 6–18, located in Shunyi District at 高丽营盈祐街 30号院. The campus occupies about 53 acres beside a residential villa area and includes classrooms with interactive whiteboards, a 25-metre heated pool, an indoor multi-purpose sports hall and a dedicated performing-arts centre. Primary and middle phases follow the China national curriculum delivered through a bilingual (Chinese/English) model; for 16–18 year-olds the school offers international senior pathways including IB programmes. Classrooms are small (typically 24–26 pupils) and the school provides both day places and 5- or 7-day boarding options. Published annual tuition bands are phase-based (primary ¥205,000; middle ¥225,000; high school ¥245,000). The school lists partnerships with Juilliard (performing arts), MIT (STEAM) and UNICEF (service learning), and provides university-guidance for senior students.
