When choosing an international school, parents often consider curriculum, facilities, and university destinations. Yet the people who make the greatest difference to a child's daily experience are the teachers.

Exceptional educators inspire learning, while a stable teaching team creates the consistency, trust, and relationships that enable students to thrive.

At Léman International School Chengdu, we believe that educational excellence is built on long-term partnerships between teachers, students, and families.

A 92% Teacher Retention Rate

For the 2026 academic year, 92% of our teachers chose to continue their journey with Léman.

This outstanding retention rate reflects a strong professional community where educators choose to build long-term careers, providing students with consistency throughout their learning journey.

Teacher stability brings significant benefits:

Consistent, high-quality curriculum delivery

Strong relationships between teachers and students

Deeper understanding of every learner's individual needs

Long-term partnerships with families

A positive and supportive school culture

Meanwhile, the teachers at Léman remain with the Nord Anglia Education for an average of five years, with many choosing to stay considerably longer—an important reflection of the school's supportive professional environment.

Supporting Teachers to Grow

Teacher retention begins with professional growth.

As part of Nord Anglia Education's global family of schools, our teachers benefit from extensive professional learning opportunities through Nord Anglia University, international collaborations, and partnerships with world-leading educational institutions. All teachers hold UK Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent qualifications, and many also hold master's degrees.

Comprehensive induction programmes, continuous professional development, and a collaborative school culture help teachers flourish throughout their careers.

Welcoming Our 2026–2027 Faculty

Alongside our experienced teaching team, we are delighted to welcome a number of exceptional new educators for the 2026–2027 academic year.

Bringing experience from international schools and diverse educational backgrounds around the world, our new teachers add fresh perspectives, innovative teaching approaches, and global expertise to our learning community.

Working closely with our established faculty, they will continue to inspire curiosity, creativity, resilience, and academic excellence across every stage of learning.

Stability with Innovation

Outstanding schools do more than recruit excellent teachers—they create an environment where educators choose to stay and grow.

Our 92% teacher retention rate reflects the strength of our community and our long-term commitment to educational excellence.

As we welcome new colleagues while retaining the vast majority of our experienced faculty, Léman International School Chengdu continues to provide students with the consistency, expertise, and inspiration they need to succeed in an ever-changing world.
