About
BJ SMIC Private School is composed of Kindergarten, Primary School, Middle School and High School (K-12). Currently, there are 2565 enrolled students from 16 countries and 78 full-time foreign teachers from different countries. The School stresses each student’s holistic development and also emphasizes the importance of moral and integrity in education.
Overall, we have one of the lowest rates of teacher replacement you will find anywhere. Our teachers are committed to their students, and enjoy deep friendships with their coworkers. Administrators make every effort to place teachers where they can refine their teaching skills and develop professionally, with opportunities for advancement to those that desire it.
Working for a growing company with $1.7 billion in annual revenue has definite benefits; you never have to worry about delayed salary payments or layoff's due to budget cuts. SMIC Private School offers salaries more than sufficient to cover the low cost of living in Yizhuang.
