BASIS International School Hangzhou
BASIS International School Hangzhou (BIHZ) is part of the BASIS Curriculum Schools network, which is renowned for its rigorous academic standards and focus on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). Since opening in 2018, the school has quickly established a reputation for being one of the most academically challenging schools in the region. The curriculum is designed to accelerate student learning, preparing them for Advanced Placement (AP) exams and entry into top-tier global universities.
The school philosophy is built on the belief that students can achieve more than is traditionally expected of them. This is supported by a 'Subject Expert Teacher' model where specialized teachers lead classes even in earlier grades. The environment is high-energy and focuses heavily on data-driven student performance and critical thinking skills.
Located in the Qianjiang New City area, the campus offers modern facilities specifically designed to support the BASIS curriculum. While the school is known for its academic intensity, it also offers a variety of clubs and athletic programs to encourage a balanced student life. BIHZ serves expatriate families and residents from the SAR regions.
