Parent Experience

Community, involvement and what it's like to be a parent at this school

History

TLC International School (Dongguan) does not list a clear founding year on its official website; public directory listings mention 2007 as a possible founding date but that is not confirmed on the school site. The school presents itself as an independent international school accredited with ACSI and pursuing WASC candidacy, operating an American-style, standards-based programme and serving nursery through grade 12. Site material and staff pages indicate the school recruits international faculty (including many U.S.-trained teachers) and is run at the school level rather than as part of a large international chain.

Community

The school's online “Quick Facts” report a student population of roughly 500 from nursery through grade 12 and a multinational teaching staff, giving the campus an international character. Campus descriptions list separate kindergarten, elementary, and secondary buildings plus a cafeteria, playgrounds, a soccer field, and basketball/volleyball courts—facilities typically used for sports days, assemblies and other community gatherings. The website emphasizes partnership with families and cultural diversity but does not publish a detailed, recurring calendar of community or cultural events.

TLC International School (Dongguan) was founded in 2007 and operates an English-language, American-based K–12 programme; the school reports an early education programme (Nursery for three- and four-year-olds) through Grade 12 and holds ACSI accreditation for K5–12. The campus includes separate Kindergarten, Elementary and Secondary buildings, a cafeteria, an elementary playground, a soccer field and basketball/volleyball courts — facilities shown on the school's campus page.

The school's tuition and fees are published on the site's “Tuition and Fees” page (the current rates are displayed there); contact details for the admissions office are provided for any fee or enrolment queries.
