Vanke Bilingual School is a nine‑year (小学 + 初中) school — primary and junior‑secondary (Grades 1–9) are offered on the same campus. The site describes small‑class teaching (小学 ~24–25 per class; 初中 32 per class).
The school is a private (民办) nine‑year bilingual school founded by the Vanke Education Development Foundation and operated under the Meisha Education group. The school provides day education for primary and junior secondary; optional boarding and evening‑study/after‑care services are offered as selectable options.
The school describes a student assessment system, mandatory growth/planning courses and close‑support programmes aimed at monitoring student development, plus after‑school/托管 services; however, the website does not publish a detailed Special Educational Needs (SEN) policy or a list of specific SEN accommodations. Prospective parents should ask admissions directly about formal SEN provision, therapists or individual education plans.
The school is Chinese‑based and was established by the Vanke Education Development Foundation; it is part of the Meisha Education group (no foreign government or country affiliation is stated).
No religious affiliation is indicated on the school website or official district listing; the school is run as a secular private school.
The school publishes that it offers a full‑day programme with optional three‑meal service, after‑school care/托管 and evening study/boarding options (boarding fees are shown for junior‑secondary in published fee schedules). The website does not list exact daily start/end times or the detailed daily timetable, so contact admissions for the current daily schedule.
The school operates a school‑bus service; the admissions FAQ states buses use qualified drivers and that each bus is accompanied by a bus‑teacher who is responsible for student discipline and safety. Bus transport is charged separately (school fees shown on the site exclude bus fees). For routes, pick‑up/drop‑off locations and current pricing, ask the admissions office or the school transport coordinator.
Application fee
- No separate application or non-refundable registration fee is published in the school's public fee notice; the school's admissions pages describe the registration process but do not list a standalone application charge.
Tuition fees (by year group and term)
- Elementary (Primary) tuition: RMB 58,000 per student, per semester (billed per semester). Annual tuition (two semesters) therefore equals RMB 116,000.
- Junior middle (Lower secondary) tuition: RMB 64,000 per student, per semester (billed per semester). Annual tuition (two semesters) therefore equals RMB 128,000.
Boarding fees
- Boarding (where applicable for junior middle students): RMB 5,300 per student, per semester.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- Tuition and boarding are published and presented on a per-semester basis; the school's fee notice lists amounts as semester charges (i.e., billing on a semester basis). Specific payment deadlines, late-payment penalties, and invoice timing are not detailed in the public fee notice.
Other costs and typical extras
- The school's fee publication does not itemize a uniform fee, daily meal charges, school-transport (school bus) fees, or optional activity fees as fixed line items in the basic semester tuition figures. Typical additional costs that families should allow for include uniforms, daily meals, school transport, extracurricular trips or camps, and certain third-party activity fees; the school's public notice does not list fixed amounts for these items.
Refund information
- The school publishes a fee-and-refund notice (including refund terms) as part of its official fee disclosure. The public notice identifies that refund rules and procedures exist; the fee notice should be consulted for the specific conditions and any calculation methodology for refunds.
Fee payment options
- The school's public pages provide contact details for admissions and general enquiries but do not detail accepted payment channels (for example: bank transfer, online payment, or card). For payment method specifics, contact details are provided on the school contact page.
