Education

Chengdu Foreign Language School employs the standard education system of Sichuan Province in disciplines other than foreign languages. Students must choose English as one foreign language, and there are two special classes each grade: one for high-level English and the other for German, French, and Japanese. Enrollments of minor languages are controlled to be around 20 students for each language, and the admission scoreline in the interview very correspondingly.

Foreign Languages

Comparing with other middle schools, numbers of language lessons rise to nine classes per week, including one class given by foreign teachers for almost every grade. Language courses in CDFLS are smaller in class size than other courses, with only 20-30 students; small-size classrooms are also specially designed for such a class model. For English courses, junior high school students use special textbooks instead of standard textbooks in China, while students in senior high school use New Concept English 3.
