Are you considering a bilingual pathway for your child? SJI International Elementary School is set to host an hour-long Bilingual Programme Webinar on April 23, 2026 at 5pm ,where you can learn how their innovative approach nurtures confident, culturally aware, and academically strong students in both English and Chinese.
The SJI International Bilingual Programme is dedicated to fostering proficiency in two languages, English and Chinese. The programme caters to both native and non-native speakers, and strategically divides the language of instruction by subject area and time.
The alternating language instruction ensures a balanced commitment to both English and Chinese language development.
In terms of bilingualism, there is a trio of expectations at SJI International Elementary School, the first being literacy, and proficiency in reading and writing. Next up is culture, meaning students gain understanding and appreciation of cultures associated with both languages.
Last but not least, it's thinking, which encourages cognitive flexibility and critical thinking through engagement with diverse linguistic and cultural perspectives.
With a balanced distribution of language instruction, SJI International Elementary School aims to develop proficiency in both languages for all students.
The curriculum features balanced language instruction to provide consistency in exposure to both languages.
