International School of Beijing (ISB, 〔http://www.isb.bj.edu.cn/Style%20Library/ISB/images/isb-logo-white.png〕) is an English-language day school, offering an international curriculum for expatriate children in China. It is located in Shunyi District, in the northeast of Beijing. ISB provides education from Pre-Kindergarten (age 3) through grade 12, in three divisions: Elementary School, Middle School, and High school. Each division has its own principal, assistant principal, and support services team. The school year runs from August to mid-June over two semesters. ISB is recognized by the Beijing Education Commission (BEC) as an independent school for expatriate children. It is situated on a property, with facilities constructed specifically for the campus. ISB offers the full Diploma Programme of the International Baccalaureate Organization (IB). They are accredited by WASC and NEASC (in the United States), the Chinese authority NCCT, and the IS (Europe). In 2010 Sarah Leung of the ''South China Morning Post'' wrote that ISB was "Recognised as one of the most academically rigorous international schools in Beijing".〔Leung, Sarah. "(Beijing schools get thumbs up )." ''South China Morning Post''. Saturday 10 June 2010. Retrieved on 3 October 2015.〕 In 2013 Mike Embley, the headmaster of the British School of Beijing (BSB), stated that ISB was, along with BSB and Western Academy of Beijing (WAB), one of the top three English-language international schools in Beijing, all having long waiting lists.〔Stefonek, Jonathan. "(Passion for teaching English-style grows in Beijing suburbs )" ((Archive )). ''China Daily''. 7 October 2012. Retrieved on 2 October 2015.〕 Citing Embley's definition of two lower tiers of Beijing Anglophone international schools which have vacant student spaces, Tristan Bunnell, the author of ''The Changing Landscape of International Schooling: Implications for Theory and Practice'', stated that this was an instance of the idea of "'superior' and 'inferior' schools" shared by teachers and parents.〔Bunnell, Tristan. ''The Changing Landscape of International Schooling: Implications for Theory and Practice''. Routledge, June 27, 2014. ISBN 1317814495, 9781317814498. p. (101 ).〕 ==Organization== Organization: A 12-member Board of Trustees provides oversight and governance.
