About this school
The International Bilingual School at Hsinchu Science Park (IBSH) was founded in 1983 as the bilingual department of National Experimental High School (NEHS). It was set up as a public school for the children of professionals and researchers working in the science park, nearby universities and research institutes, and for families of returning overseas Chinese scholars, and was overseen jointly by the Ministry of Education and the National Science Council.
IBSH covers Grades 1 to 12 and blends Eastern and Western approaches. The Western, college-preparatory programme targets universities in the United States and Canada, with a wide choice of Advanced Placement courses and electives taught in English. Chinese language is required every year and Chinese social studies is taught in Mandarin, so students can also move towards Taiwanese universities.
- About 511 students, including 192 in high school, with 68 full-time teachers
- Classrooms, science and computer laboratories and a music room
- Shares the gym, track and swimming pool with NEHS
