We have a lot of experience in moving to Shanghai, starting school, choosing houses, making friends, getting around and many other aspects of international life.  Whether you are new to living overseas, or whether you are an old hand, we encourage you to make use of us as you prepare for your move.

Our staff are always ready to help, so please get in touch even if your question doesn't seem like its school-related.  We can often answer directly, or we can put you in touch with other parents who've dealt with the same issue.

To help children settle in, we can arrange for them to get in touch with some of our current pupils.  Children are sometimes nervous about starting in a new place, and having email contact with some future friends can be a good way to start to settle in.

One of the strengths of an international community like ours is that we have all been through the process of moving, settling-in and making friends.  We think it makes us approachable, friendly and welcoming, and we'd like to share our experiences and expertise to help you.
