Toni Wereschuk：Good day. I am Toni Wereschuk, principal of SUIS Jiaoke Campus, BC stream. I have been at the school for 7 years now. This is my fourth year as an administrator in the school, and it is a pleasure to work here. We follow the British Columbia, Canada curriculum, which is one of the most outstanding in Canada. Our students are able to apply to universities around the world with the BC Dogwood diploma, and the educational experiences they receive with us.
大家好，我是 Toni Wereschuk，协和教科校区BC课程部的校长。我已经在学校工作了 7 年了。这是我在学校担任管理人员的第四年，在这里工作非常愉快。我们教授加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省的课程，这是加拿大最杰出的课程之一。我们的学生能够申请世界各地的大学，得益于他们获得的BC省高中毕业证书，以及他们在我们这里获得的学习经验。
学术建设是学校软实力的重要部分。学校的学术课程设置有哪些特点？
Academic development is an important part of a school’s soft power. What are the
characteristics of the academic curriculum at your school?
Toni Wereschuk：Our program is one of the top academic curricula in Canada. It is developed and monitored by the BC Ministry of Education, constantly evaluated for its success in developing well-rounded people that are ready for life beyond school. It helps them develop academically but also as a well-rounded individual.
我们的课程是加拿大顶尖的学术课程之一。它由不列颠哥伦比亚省教育部制定和监督，该课程在培养全面发展的人才方面获得高度评价，同时为学生在学校以外的生活提供准备。BC课程帮助学生在学业上发展，同时也帮助他们成为一个全面发展的人。
Our students must complete a minimum of 80 credits for graduation, with each course usually counting as 4 credits. 52 credits are pre-requisites, in English, Math, Science, Humanities, and Physical Education in G10. The remaining credits are elective courses that students choose to help them determine their interests moving forward, and to help prepare them for university requirements.
我们的学生必须完成至少 80 个学分才能毕业，每门课程通常计为 4 个学分。52 个学分是必修学分，包括十年级的英语、数学、科学、人文和体育。剩余的学分是选修课程，学生选择这些课程以帮助他们探索自己的兴趣，并帮助他们为大学要求做好准备。
Students are also expected to complete volunteer hours as part of their Career Life courses, which our academic counsellor teaches them. Together, the students and counsellor look at university requirements, future career paths, and determine what the students should consider for their futures.
学生还需要完成志愿服务时间，作为他们的职业生活课程的一部分，该课程是由升学指导老师教授的。学生和辅导员一起研究大学要求、未来的职业道路，并确定学生应该为他们的未来考虑什么。
All courses must be taught by teachers with B.C. teacher certification, which requires years of study. This helps guarantee the quality of our teachers. Courses are also evaluated annually in aspects such as teaching facilities, teacher numbers, student feedback, and Professional Development resources. This helps the program maintain high standards.
所有课程必须由具有BC省教师资格证的教师授课，这需要多年的学习。这有助于保证我们教师的素质。每年还会在教学设施、教师人数、学生反馈和专业发展资源等方面对课程进行评估，以保持课程的高标准。
学校如何保证师资团队的高水平和稳定性？
How does the school ensure the high level and stability of the teaching team?
Toni Wereschuk：Our teachers must qualify for the BC Teaching Certification. They must have an education degree or equivalent that allows them to qualify as an educator. The BC Teaching certification process is rigorous. Our local teachers that teach Chinese subjects are also certified in that subject area. These qualifications ensure quality teachers. SUIS Education Group is also one of the biggest employers for foreign teachers in Shanghai, which provides us with the opportunity to find highly qualified teachers.
我们的教师必须获得不列颠哥伦比亚省的教师资格证。他们必须具有教育学位或同等学历，才能获得教育工作者的资格。BC省教师认证过程非常严格。我们教授中方科目的本地教师也拥有该学科领域的认证。这些资格确保了高质量的教师。SUIS教育集团也是上海最大的外籍教师雇主之一，这为我们提供了寻找高素质教师的机会。
很多家长正在为孩子规划教育路线，您认为哪些中国家庭更适合为孩子选择国际教育？
Many parents are planning their children’s education path. In your opinion, which
Chinese families are more suitable for choosing international education for their
children?
Toni Wereschuk：I think anyone is suited to choosing international education…if they are prepared to commit extra time to study, as well as resources towards language development, a willingness to embrace different cultures, and an understanding that international schools have different expectations than local schools. Some students mention that they think studying at our school will be easier than cramming for the gaokao, and while in some ways it is easier, we are still an academic program. All courses are taught in English, so students not only have to be ready to learn new subjects, but to do these subjects in a second language.
我认为任何人都适合选择国际教育......只要他们准备投入额外的时间去学习，并为语言发展提供资源，愿意接受不同的文化，并了解国际学校与本土学校不同的培养方向。 一些学生提到，他们认为在我们学校学习会比为了参加高考而死记硬背更容易，虽然在某些方面更容易，但我们仍然是一个学术课程。所有课程均以英语授课，因此学生不仅要准备好学习新科目，还要用第二语言学习这些科目。
您所在学校的招生标准是什么？
What are the admission criteria for your school?
Toni Wereschuk：Students must pass our exclusive English Entrance exam before receiving an offer to join our program. This serves two purposes. It allows teachers to anticipate the language level of students that they will have in their classes. But more, I think parents should consider this reassurance – we will not just take their money and attempt to teach their child. We are committed to taking students that have sufficient English to be successful, especially if the child is committed to developing their language abilities along with their academic abilities.
学生必须通过我们设置的英语入学考试，通过后会收到我们课程的录取通知书。这有两个目的，其一是让教师预测学生的语言水平，其二也是更重要的是，我认为严格的筛选可以给家长慰藉——我们不是为了赚钱而试图教他们的孩子。我们致力于培养具有良好英语水平的学生取得成功，特别针对于那些想要发展他们的语言能力和学术能力的学生。
您认为，所在学校最显著的特色是什么？差异化办学体现在哪些方面？
What do you think is the most distinctive feature of your school?
Toni Wereschuk：I think our sense of community is the most distinctive feature. Our staff genuinely care about the students and their success and want to be supportive beyond just the classroom. This can be felt in the relationships that develop around the school. We have high standards for the students but want to provide support so that students can meet these expectations.
我认为我们的社区意识是最显着的特征。我们的员工真诚地关心学生和他们的成功，并希望在课堂之外提供支持。这可以从学校周围发展的关系中感受到。我们对学生有很高的标准，但希望提供支持，以便学生能够满足这些期望。
