Qingdao Chaoyin Primary School has  innovatively integrated the IB curriculum with the Chinese National curriculum, and is committed to developing lifelong learners and socially responsible citizens. The school management team and the faculty team drew up and strictly implemented the action plan according to the IB PYP program standards. The school management team, the primary school faculty team, the students and their parents were thoroughly evaluated by the IB authorized visiting team for two days.
