BSG Guangzhou Scholarships 2024/25
A founding member of BSG's science department in 2009, Dr Emmerton was inspired to return to the school after his child's experience at the Nord Anglia Global Games in 2019, which was hosted on our South Lake Campus.
My love for learning has driven my educational and professional paths for several decades. After my BSc at the University of Brighton, MSc at Imperial College, London, and PhD at the University of Sheffield, I completed my Secondary Science Teaching Certificate at The University of Portsmouth in 2001. Subsequently, I have worked in a wide variety of schools, within the UK, the Middle East and China, teaching the Sciences to students from Year 5, all the way through to Year 13.
Some achievements during this time have included: guiding students during engineering after-school-activities in the design and full-construction of a petrol-driven, two-seater go-kart with dual-pedals and dual steering; guiding students to achieve A* grade IGCSE’s and A levels in Chemistry, who subsequently embarked on BSc degrees at top tier universities, including Yonsei University, Korea, Imperial College, London and the University of Cambridge, UK.
Joining The British School of Guangzhou and the Science team here was a natural decision when I realised a vacant position became available. The reason for this is three-fold. Firstly, I was previously one of the founding members of Upper Secondary and the Science Department at BSG from 2009-12!
Secondly, I knew Mr Mark Thomas was still the Principal at BSG, and I was very familiar with his talent in driving and guiding the development of an outstanding school, where both academic and non-academic staff at all levels are very frequently retained for multiple contract renewals - which is highly indicative of an exceptionally well-managed and highly successful school.
Thirdly, my youngest child re-visited BSG during his participation in the Global Games in 2019 and was very keen, as was my eldest son, to return to The British School of Guangzhou… inspired and excited even more after their informative, relaxed and very friendly interview with the Head of Secondary, Mr Paul McConnell.
At The British School of Guangzhou, we follow The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum. It is a comprehensive framework in the UK that sets the standards for learning, development, and care for children from birth to five years old.
BSG is pleased to announce the exceptional success of our Reception students in their recent Cambridge CEM assessment, particularly in mathematics.
The British School of Guangzhou celebrated the achievements of the Class of 2024 with a spectacular ceremony on 20 June at Guangzhou’s Four Seasons Hotel.
Guangzhou, 17 June 2024 — As part of Nord Anglia Education (NAE), one of the world’s leading international schools groups, The British School of Guanghzhou proud to have Genevieve, Sora and Nica attending this year’s NAE-UNICEF Student Summit, hosted for the first time ever in Houston, Texas from 12 to 19 June 2024.
