Students in Year 6 have started 2021 by demonstrating outstanding adaptability and resilience as they have resumed online learning. Learning online has allowed students to further develop independence and be responsible for their own learning by attending online sessions and ensuring work is handed in on time. Students have shown wonderful enthusiasm during live teaching sessions and have worked incredibly hard to produce ‘Ambitious’ work.
This term in Topic, students will be exploring natural disasters, how they are caused and how we can protect ourselves from their effects. An important aspect of understanding natural disasters, is knowing how the Earth is structured. Students demonstrated amazing creativity by producing work related to the layers of the Earth. We had students use clay models, colourful clothes, food and digital apps to represent the layers. We also explored how tectonic plates interact by using biscuits, waffles and cream!
These are examples of how online learning can be engaging, fun, allow students to be creative and most importantly continue to Be…Ambitious!

The British School of Beijing, Shunyi Campus offers the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), which is renowned for its active learning approach. This method is integral to early childhood education, providing young learners with a solid foundation for their future academic and personal development. At BSB Shunyi, active learning means children learn by doing — through a thoughtful blend of teacher-guided activities and independent exploration that develops both their academic skills and their love of learning.
The British School of Beijing recently hosted BritMUN 2025, a Model United Nations (MUN) event that highlights the exceptional organisational and leadership skills of our students. This year's conference was a remarkable success, attracting student delegates from many different schools across Beijing, including the British School of Beijing, the International School of Beijing, Dulwich College Beijing, and Beijing World Youth Academy.
