The curriculum offered at LEH Foshan will allow students to tailor their studies whilst providing a broad and balanced academic base on which to build. It focuses upon students learning collaboratively in small classes, developing curiosity through asking searching questions and developing a deep, personal understanding through collaboration and personal commitment.

Teachers will get to know each student well, working with the students to develop their academic skills and craftsmanship leading to excellent academic results. They will counsel students about their choices and provide full support for their university applications.

The 58,000 square meter campus boasts a selection of high-quality facilities designed to create an environment where students can safely explore their interests and passions alongside new ideas and embark on their journey to becoming expert learners.

The collaborative classrooms have been designed as a space where students have the room to learn and the freedom to experiment. The Science & Technology facilities are fully equipped for students to engage in the practical study of biology, chemistry and physics as well as modern design, engineering and robotics.

The campus is also equipped with excellent sports facilities. In addition to compulsory physical education, students will be able to participate in extracurricular sports clubs including badminton, basketball, touch rugby, football and swimming.

Creative spaces on campus are available to all students as part of their curricular and extra-curricular activities. Students will have access to music and drama facilities that will enable them to develop their creative skills beyond their everyday school life.

The school’s en-suite boarding facilities will provide a home-away-from-home for students, allowing them to spend more time on their studies and interests and less time stuck in traffic.

“Our campus has been designed with the needs of secondary-age students at its heart,” LEH Foshan head master Mr. Steve Allen explains. “It offers a secure and positive learning environment where students can develop a quiet self-confidence, together with the courage, creativity and support network needed to achieve their personal goals.”

An experienced educator, Mr Allen’s approach is student-orientated. In addition to producing exceptional exam results, Mr Allen strives to produce confident and creative thinkers, excited by problem solving and entrepreneurship, and prepared to take on new challenges.
