What are some of the biggest differences between the SMIC School and other international-style schools?
The SMIC School is a bilingual school. To serve the unique needs of our student body, the school offers two academic tracks - an International Track and a Chinese Track.
One of the biggest differences is in the tuition fee. We offer the same quality teaching and curriculum as the best international schools in Shanghai for less than half the price. Within the International Track, we also have a very solid Chinese language program where students are placed in the appropriate classes based on their Chinese proficiency.
What are the school hours?
Why the name “SMIC” Private School?
The name comes from the company, “Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation”, China’s largest and most advanced semiconductor company. SMIC Company originally created the school in Shanghai for employees’ children. However, the school has grown phenomenally since then and non-employees' children account for the majority of the current student population.

- CCC Program
What is your academic curriculum based upon?
SMIC-I follows an American-based curriculum and in addition to core courses taught in English, students also take Chinese language classes according to the level of their Chinese proficiency. For more information about the curriculum and the teaching standards we follow, please refer to the elementary, middle and high school pages.
What is the average class size? What is the teacher-student ratio?
In SMIC-I, how do you cater to students with different levels of Chinese?
The School offers two different Chinese language programs: Chinese Regular (Yuwen) and Chinese as a Second language (CSL). Students with native Chinese language skills may take regular Chinese classes which follow a standardized Chinese curriculum as set forth by the Full-time Compulsory Education Chinese Curriculum standards. Students who are not native Chinese speakers may take CSL (Chinese as a Second Language) classes, which follows standards devised through the International Curriculum for Chinese Language. For more details, please contact the CSL department.
CCC Program
SMIC Chinese Concentration Class (CCC) Program
The Chinese Concentration Class (CCC) program was introduced to SMIC-I Elementary School in 2011, and has become a popular program for prospective SMIC-I parents. This is a three-year program specially designed at the elementary level to provide the essence of both Western and Eastern educations, and build a solid foundation in English, Chinese and Math computational skills.
English Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, Music, Arts and Computer classes follow well-established American curriculum. The Chinese Language curriculum is enhanced with four additional periods of classical reading and composition practice. The Math class follows the local curriculum, in which computational skills are emphasized.
This strenuous program requires students to have complete mastery of both languages to be successful. Potential students are required to pass both English and Chinese exams. Students who achieve higher scores will be accepted first. Students in the program are required to stay for at least one school year. They cannot drop out of the program and switch to the regular class in the middle of the school year. Switching will depend on the availability of vacancy in the other program.
The program and students are closely monitored to ensure maximum learning outcome. The homework load is approximately 2 hours a night. Parents need to take this seriously into consideration before the enrollment, and assist their children on time management once in the program.

What are student meals like?
Is it mandatory for students to eat in the school cafeteria? Can they bring their own lunch?
Is school bus service provided?
Yes, there are more than 20 shuttle buses providing bus service for students who live in various locations in Pudong and Puxi. Morning pick up times for buses depend on the student's location. Bus departure times from school to home are listed below:
Note: MHS students living in Pudong can ONLY choose one departure time, once decided; their bus schedule can NOT be changed in the middle of the semester.
How to Apply for School Bus Service
The GA Office handles the school bus arrangements. If you would like to apply for school bus service, please contact Mr. Qin via phone at +86-21-2033-2588 ext. 364, or via email at rich_qin@smicschool.com.
Each SMIC school bus will have one chaperone to ensure the safety of our students. In order to fulfill most of our students’ needs, we no longer provide school bus service for students living beyond the outer ring including some remote living areas far away from the main routes. Parents living in these locations will need to arrange their own transportation to and from school.
Do you provide dormitory for students from out-of-town?
