Discover, Connect, and Flourish in Chinese Language and Culture

​

The Explorer Class is designed for curious and ambitious students aged 11 and above who have completed their elementary studies and are ready to embark on a deeper, more inspiring journey into the Chinese language and the world it opens.Through this programme, learners go beyond words — they immerse themselves in the stories, traditions, and modern vibrancy of one of the world‘s oldest and most dynamic civilisations.

 

The curriculum unfolds across 9 progressive levels (20 lessons per level), each one guiding students through captivating regions of China. Along the way, they‘ll uncover the country’s rich history, breathtaking geography, diverse cultures, and local customs through interactive storytelling, creative projects, and lively discussions.

 

Curriculum Highlights

​

Aligned with AQA GCSE Mandarin and HSK Levels 3–4, the Explorer Class develops not only language mastery but also cultural intelligence and global awareness. Students will explore meaningful, real-world themes such as:

​​

• Identity and culture – discovering who we are through language and stories

• Local, national, and international connections – exploring places and people that shape our world

• Education and career pathways – preparing for the future with confidence and vision

• Life in China today – experiencing daily life, customs, and modern innovations

• Business and creativity – understanding China‘s role in global enterprise and innovation

​

Through immersive lessons, multimedia exploration, and authentic case studies, students gain more than just language skills — they develop the ability to think globally, communicate confidently, and appreciate the beauty and depth of Chinese civilisation.

 

By the end of their Explorer journey, students won‘t just be learning Chinese — they’ll be living it, thinking in it, and seeing the world through a richer, more connected lens.
