Brief Introduction of Our School's Curriculum
The GAC program is designed to prepare international students for undergraduate studies at Western universities. Of course, developing proficiency in the English language is essential for success at university and so our grade 10 students develop a foundation in English. However, we are more than just a language school. Beginning in grade 11 we no longer teach English as a language, but instead use it as a tool to study Mathematics, General Computing, Business, Science, Statistics, Social Science & Graphic and Web Design as well as develop the study skills and habits that will be expected in the undergraduate classroom. In grade 12, after completing the core GAC curriculum, we give our students experience with freshman-level university courses as they study UExcel/AP courses in (this year at least) English Literature, College Writing, Psychology, Statistics & Calculus.

The school covers an area of more than 14.2 hectares with the total building area over 77,000 square meters. There is a stadium with 2000 seats, track field, volleyball, basketball and tennis courts and even an astronomical observatory (12 meters in diameter).

About Zibo
Zibo, the capital of ancient Qi Kingdom, is located in the heartland of Shandong province. There are mountains to the south, the Yellow River to the north and we are close to the provincial capital of Jinan to the west. Weifang (famous as the center of Chinese kite culture) and Qingdao (famous as the center of Chinese beer culture) are to the east. Shandong is the birthplace of Confucius and has one of China's key Holy Mountains, Tai Shan.

Zibo Experimental High School is situated in Zhangdian District. Zhangdian District, as the capital of Zibo City, is a modern place. It's a "small" city by Chinese standards (only 1 million people in the district) and its wide avenues means little traffic compared to other Chinese metropolises.
