Principal's Message | My Philosophy

I would like to extend a warm welcome to all our students, parents, and families. 

Here at Nord Anglia International School Shanghai, Pudong, everyone is considered a valuable member of our school community. I believe this is achieved by working together to develop a strong, relationship with parents and families to ensure the happiness, security, and academic achievement that we all want for our children.

Creative, Confident, and Considerate individuals

In Nord Anglia International School Shanghai, Pudong, we nurture our very youngest learners and continue to develop them as they get older to be creative, confident, and considerate individuals. Not only on their learning journey with us but also when they enter university and life beyond.  

Academic Success

I am proud of the academic curriculum that we offer ensuring the highest academic success for each one of our learners. It is rigorous, balanced, and offers equal access for all learners to study all areas and to equally access the content.  

Exceptional Learning Experiences

Alongside our academic offering, we also have a varied and exciting co-curricular program that is fully inclusive and allows all students to discover their own passions.  All students participate from the youngest learner still learning coordination and ball skills to the oldest who are competitively swimming or becoming a chess master. 

Our Social Purpose

Together with the work our students and within the local community through our academics and our holistic co-curricular programme we will develop confident young adults who are prepared in making wise choices for university and life that create their own bright futures. 

Diane Vaughan is Principal at Nord Anglia International School Shanghai, Pudong.
