佛山霍利斯新学年全人教育新规划

As another academic year has drawn to a close, we stand at a truly historic moment, our school’s 5th anniversary, and we kick off this milestone celebration with a host of new changes and innovations that will unfold across campus in the upcoming academic year. In line with our anniversary celebrations, Honouring the Past, Shaping the Future, we look back with deep gratitude for the strong foundation built over these five years, while looking forward with great excitement to what lies ahead. Covering curriculum expansion, campus upgrades, co-curricular programmes, parent engagement and student wellbeing, every new initiative centres on our holistic education mission, crafting richer, more personalised growth journeys for every student.

1 Whole-School Academic Upgrades

Expanded Curriculum Options

After laying solid foundations across all subjects this academic year, we will further broaden our curriculum portfolio with brand-new course offerings for Sixth Form students. We will introduce A Level Textiles to our Sixth Form programme. This new creative subject expands our arts curriculum, delivering a balanced learning experience that integrates rigorous academic study with hands-on artistic creation.

Individualised Support

Our academic leadership team will roll out systematic teacher training programmes to guarantee premium classroom teaching. A growing series of workshops will be open to all students, helping them dig deeper into subjects and fully prepare for competitive university applications. We will also extend early university planning to all year groups, offering public speaking, competition and service opportunities to build long-term competitiveness.

Brand-New Campus Facilities

Several brand-new specialist spaces will open next year, including a dedicated Prep STEM Centre, Design Technology classroom and professional Textiles Studio. These hands-on creative zones stimulate students’ creativity, logical thinking and practical problem-solving ability. Meanwhile, the Prep library will be relocated to the second floor, and the original library area will be transformed into exclusive workspaces for the High Potential Programme team.

Co-Curricular & Wellbeing Programmes

All-Round Wellbeing Support

Student wellbeing sits at the heart of all school work. Our pastoral and international boarding teams will continuously optimise care systems, helping students build global citizenship through cross-cultural communication. A brand-new wellbeing after-school club will be launched in Prep School, designed to nurture friendship, communication skills and emotional health outside formal lessons.

 

 

Rich ECAs & Academies

As a core pillar of our holistic education framework, our co-curricular programme will receive comprehensive upgrades next academic year. We will optimise the weekly ECA timetable to deliver greater flexibility, seamlessly fitting targeted academic tutoring, arts rehearsals and wellbeing-focused sessions into students’ daily schedules.

Students training on ski slope

Our popular Saturday Academy series will also keep expanding its offerings. Building on well-established programmes including music, performing arts, football and swimming, we will launch brand-new specialist academies such as skiing, alongside brand-new Prep-focused English and STEM enrichment courses. The fully diversified co-curricular system empowers every student to explore passions, build soft skills and maintain a healthy study-life balance.

 

3 Prep School Exclusive Innovations

Mentor guiding student in boarding study space

Apart from the wellbeing club and STEAM Maker Space, Prep will stick to dynamic cross-curricular British lessons with specialist teachers for Spanish, Mandarin, PE and Music. We adopt the "Low Threshold, High Ceiling" teaching logic to ensure every child can gain a sense of achievement with appropriate challenges. The thematic teaching mode connects science, art and language naturally, turning daily learning into a continuous adventure full of curiosity.

 

4 Home-School Partnership & Teaching Quality Assurance

Next year marks our school’s 5th Anniversary, and a full calendar of themed celebrations will be held to review our shared growth journey. More parent workshops and casual communication sessions with Prep senior leaders will be arranged regularly. Parent feedback collected via forums, committees and questionnaires will keep guiding our school’s iterative optimisation.

 

We will welcome a new Head of Sixth Form to strengthen student support. Strict internal quality assurance and long-term teacher coaching programmes will keep teaching standards at the highest level. Investing in our teachers is our core way to lift every student’s learning outcomes.

From whole-school university pathways and campus upgrades to new secondary curricula and Prep School wellbeing & maker programmes, every innovation revolves around holistic education. We support students aged 6–18 across academics, wellbeing, creativity and social responsibility, with personalised growth opportunities for every child. Current and prospective families are welcome to follow our updates and book campus tours to experience our immersive British education atmosphere.
