Middle School: Normally, sixth graders are assigned an average of about 90 minutes of homework daily; seventh and eighth graders about two hours. However, the amount of time a child spends each night will depend on his or her academic background, study skills, maturity level, and organizational skills.

High School: Normally, about 2 to 3 hours of homework per day should be expected; however, during exam times, more time may be necessary.

The amount of homework varies by grade levels and gradually increases with the heavier academic load of our university preparatory program. The amount of time a child spends each night on homework depends upon his or her academic background, study skills, maturity level, and organizational skills.

Founded during the fall of 2005, the Canadian International School of Beijing offers a world-class facility with an internationally recognized Canadian education curriculum and the International Baccalaureate Programme.

Accrediated by the New Brunswick Department of Education in Canada, the Canadian International School of Beijing offers to its students internationally recognized Canadian curriculum.

The New Brunswick (Canada) curriculum that is used is recognized universally for its quality, breadth and depth. It is an outcomes-based system that ensures all students attain the required knowledge and skills before graduation. In the early years, this program provides an emphasis on basic skills, knowledge and attitudes that students will need for later success. As the program moves into Middle School, the subject areas broaden to provide students with experiences in more curriculum areas and to introduce new interests. In High School, the program begins to narrow once again as we prepare students to enter post secondary studies.
