What Our Parents Say

Our school welcomes parents' input, because working collaboratively is the best way to achieve the best outcomes for our children.

We asked four parents to have a roundtable discussion about why they chose The British School of Beijing, Shunyi for their children. This video of their candid conversation includes the topics of settling in, the learning environment and the approach the school takes to help new families become part of the BSB family.

Parent Feedback

It is important to get feedback and we are often seeking out opinions from our parents about their experience at our school. Here are some recent comment from our parents.

"When my family first arrived in Beijing, I was unable to comprehend how I would last here for three years. I cannot emphasize enough how much the BSB community has helped make my Beijing experience a pleasant and enjoyable one that I will always cherish."
- Mrs Mahajan (Reception and Year 8 parent)

"My children are very happy every day and enjoy school life. The school provides the opportunity for the children to take part in charity activities, like the Shoebox Appeal, so children understand about contributing society and not just thinking about themselves."
- Mrs Gu (Nursery, Year 2 and 5 parent)

"A year ago we were in the process of making the decision to switch our daughter to BSB. Emails with feedback on our child's performance (be it a good performance or not so good performance) are why we are very pleased that she is at BSB this year and will be for three more years. We really appreciate the communication and individual attention given to each student."
- Mrs Shannon (Year 7 parent)

"BSB makes us feel that we're not just part of a school, but part of a family. We love the fact that BSB sees our children as individuals. They make the school fit the child, not the child fit the school. Our children have grown amazingly and blossomed in the BSB environment."
- Mr Minsker (Year 4 and 5 parent)

"The variety of sports you offer is impressive and your enthusiastic, encouraging and ever supporting attitude has been a true delight. With no doubt we can say that PE has been THE ONE among all subjects that we`ve appreciated the most at BSB! As a parent it`s been a pleasure to watch my son to learn new skills and get to know new sports like rugby and also to gain confidence in team sports like football and basketball. My son was also obviously delighted to hear the positive feedback from his teacher and wanted to send his regards and sincere thanks for these past three years – his exact words were: 'I thank them for this experience – it`s been awesome!' We wish you all the very best – keep up the good work!"
- Mrs Hannula (Year 8 Parent)
