Nanjing Foreign Language School has provided A-Level courses since 2006. It also has a program working with most of the 20 top universities in Australia and another program with some top 20 universities in Canada. Now NFLSers are studying or living in over 30 countries.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.nfls.com.cn/129/list.htm|title=历届毕业生去向|website=www.nfls.com.cn|trans-title=Careers of NFLS alumni|language=zh-Hans}}</ref> |
|||
== Admissions == |
|||
Widely recognized as one of the best middle/high schools in [[China]], admission to NFLS is highly selective.<ref name="Zhihu"/> |
|||
=== Junior School admissions === |
|||
Elementary graduates apply to Nanjing Foreign Language School by taking an interview.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|url=http://www.nfls.com.cn/15/a3/c74a5539/page.htm|title=2018 NFLS Junior High School Admission Information|website=www.nfls.com.cn|access-date=2018-11-15|language=zh-Hans}}</ref> Application for interview is available for all elementary graduates in Nanjing, who are also free to choose the language for admission (this determines not the language of the interview, but rather the language studied in the foreign language curriculum afterwards), including English, French, German, and Japanese. The total enrollment number is usually 380, and the number of students qualified for interview is 8 times the enrollment number, around 3,200. An open computer allocation carried out by the Student Recruitment Committee office of Nanjing will be needed if the number of students applying for interview exceeds the expected qualification number. The eligible applicants then take a school-organized interview on English capabilities to determine the final qualification. Contents of the interview are officially declared to be restricted within course contents of standard elementary school textbooks. Various subjects, in fact, are tested, notably English language and Mathematics. Detailed test questions in the interview are not officially open to public. The final qualification is based on results of the interview, each language with a specific admission line. The enrollment number of students who choose English is approximately 330<ref name=":0" /> and varies among different years, while admissions for each "minor" languages usually do not exceed 20.<ref name=":0" /> |
|||
Before 1998, the school admission process involved two rounds of competition each year. In the first round, pupils compete within their resident districts of the city, and then about 1000 of them in total were selected for the next round. The chosen applicants were required to take an entrance exam to test their verbal and math skills. Only 200 top candidates could be admitted. |
|||
From 1998 to 2002, the first round of competition was abolished, because it was considered to be unfair for students in different city districts. {{Specify|date=September 2011}} Therefore, pupils who were going to graduate could freely sign up for the entrance exam. The response was overwhelming with thousands of pupils eagerly joining the competition each year. In 2002, the number of applicants was more than 10,000. Around 150 students was selected for admission with full financial aid, with another 150 selected for partial aid or self-sponsored enrollment. |
|||
Recruitment of top students in such a large scale for a high school was unprecedented in Nanjing, and residents in Nanjing gradually formed a habit of judging the quality of an elementary school by looking at how many of its students could be admitted to NFLS, which sparked a high degree of controversy. {{Specify|date=September 2011}} For a long time, elementary school teachers and some parents were being criticized for placing too much pressure on students, and the fierce competition for entering NFLS obviously made the situation worse. Furthermore, other top high schools contending for talented students complained about NFLS's unfair practice and accused the city's education council for being partial to NFLS. {{Specify|date=September 2011}} |
|||
In order to relive pupils' burden of taking exams, some people{{who|date=March 2014}} suggested that the number of students allowed to take the entrance exams of NFLS should be strictly limited, and each elementary school should recommend several students who had good performance not only in exams but also in extracurricular activities. However, this idea was considered to be unrealistic, because the selection criteria were too vague and impractical, and might easily cause unfairness for schools and individual pupils. {{Specify|date=September 2011}} |
|||
In 2003, an even more controversial admission policy was carried out. {{Specify|date=September 2011}} Since 2003, the school is still allowed for citywide recruitment, but with an additional preliminary random allocation procedure executed by a computer. |
|||
For instance, assume for year 2009 the number of applicants is 4,000 and the number of planned admits is 300, then only 300*8=2400 applicants are actually allowed to proceed to take the entrance exam, always multiplied by a factor of 8. The 2,400 candidates would be randomly selected among the 4,000 applicants by a computer algorithm, with high degree of public supervision. This new policy destroyed the decision power of exams, and allowed more room for other schools to select good students, but aroused serious arguments concerning the fairness for individual students.<ref>[http://www.ntjy.gov.cn/EducationInfo/jylj/EducationInfo_20060626092713.html 南京"小升初"电脑派位结束 南外摇出2240人] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110727035755/http://www.ntjy.gov.cn/EducationInfo/jylj/EducationInfo_20060626092713.html|date=July 27, 2011}}</ref> |
|||
=== Senior School admissions === |
|||
For students from junior high school of NFLS, enrollment qualifications are determined by a combination of standard High School Admission Examination(Zhongkao) in Nanjing and a school-held language examination. Students' combined scores of the two examinations are ranked, and the top 320 students are qualified for high school enrollment. Admissions from other junior high schools to NFLS has two options: |
|||
# Applicants take another language test different from that for on-campus students, whose score, combined with the Zhongkao score, are used to determine qualification. |
|||
# Applicants participate in a school-organized test on STEM capabilities. Only very limited number of students are admitted in this way in different subjects. This option is also shared with students from NFLS junior school. |
|||
Before 2003, the senior high school of NFLS only enrolled students from its own middle school, with a small number of elimination. Since 2003, students from other middle schools can also apply and compete for the entrance to NFLS, by taking the city's public exams and an additional English language test. |
|||
== Facilities == |
|||
NFLS possesses and offers a great variety of facilities that significantly enhances teaching and learning experience. Most standard classrooms on the main campus are equipped with touchable screens, presentation systems, and smart announcement platforms. Library system includes a main library and foreign language reading rooms, each with hundreds of "original books" and a nice reading space. A STEM laboratory is built for advanced experiments and curriculum in STEM elective courses, including UV spectroscope, IR spectroscope, TGA, HPLC, HP-MS, and elemental analyzer. The School Stadium has multiple facilities for various sports, including table tennis room, indoor basketball field, gym, badminton field, volleyball field, and others. Other facilities are also present, such as the acoustic room and high-tech recording classroom. |
|||
== Academics == |
|||
Nanjing Foreign Language School employs the standard education system of Jiangsu Province in disciplines '''other than''' foreign languages. Students may select one from English, German, French and Japanese as their major language as early as their applications for admission. Comparing to the other languages, English is the major choice, consisting approximately 330 students in a grade. Enrollments of minor languages are controlled to be around 20 students for each language, and the admission score line in the interview vary correspondingly, as mentioned above. |
|||
Comparing with other middle schools, numbers of language lessons rise to 10 classes per week, including one class given by foreign teachers for almost every grade. Language courses in NFLS are smaller in class size than other courses, with only 20-30 students; small-size classrooms are also specially designed for such class model. For English courses, junior high school students use special textbooks<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://isbnsearch.org/isbn/9787560035871|title=ISBN 9787560035871|website=isbnsearch.org|language=en|access-date=2018-11-29}}</ref> instead of standard textbooks in China, while students in senior high school use [[New Concept English|New Concept English 3]]. |
|||
NFLS is reputed as a highly competitive school, at least in Nanjing. As of 2019, all 19 students taking [[The National College Entrance Examination|Gaokao]] attained scores above the first standard score; Average score in Zhongkao was 620 out of 700. |
