Shanghai Rego International School. One-Off Or Sign Of Things To Come?
2012-01-19 16:28:00 At least once a month, I get an email from an English teacher in China wanting to start a language consulting business or school in China. I have a form response that summarizes what it will likely take and likely cost for them to do so legally. Virtually none of them had any idea of the difficulties and costs in starting such businesses. My law firm represents a good number of existing international schools in China and we are right now working on at least double the number of legal issues as usual for them. Today I saw a Shanghaiist post on "issues" being faced by Shanghai Rego International School. The post entitled, "Shanghai Rego International School now facing forced relocation," details how the school is being forced to move as its facility is being taken over for a public school: However an official surnamed Hua with the district's Education Bureau said there were no safety issues but said the school probably will have to relocate because the bureau has decided not to le...

Tips for being remembered: School.
2011-12-29 18:55:00 Here's another list of great* ideas on being remembered. This time, for students at school.1. If you're asked what 1 + 1 is? Answer "two dead parents."2.Bring your teacher an apple on the first day, inform the teacher that you already removed the worm... and ate it.3. If you're called to the chalk board to demonstrate something, draw a pentagram. Explain that you're asking Satan to give you the answer.4. On your schoolwork, always sign your name "Sir Pilkington the 14th."5. When you're given homework, don't bring it back the next school day. When asked way, tell them that YOU ate it.6. Ask the teacher if channeling dead math professors is considered cheating.7. Wear big red clown shoes to school. If you're asked to remove them, tell them that you can't, it's part of your religion.8. Before you leave school at the end of the day, hand your teacher some homework and tell them that you expect it done by the next day.9. If someone knocks on the classroom door, bark like a dog a...

IB School Kids Asked To Buy iPad 2; Aakash Not Good Enough?
2011-12-15 07:27:00 In a typical one-upmanship, International Baccalaureate affiliated Podar International School has asked its students to buy an iPad 2 for “better educational experience”. In a move going to prove very profitable for Apple, parents have been asked either to source an iPad 2 on their own or buy one from the school’s bulk purchase scheme. Parents of kids as young as class II are not happy & feel they have been left out of the consensus. “There has been no consensus on the issue among parents. I am opposed to the move as it will hamper, rather than aid a kid’s education.” Parents feel kids should be taught using the traditional methods instead of giving expensive gadgets at such a tender age. Some have even gone to the length of threatening withdrawal of their wards from the school as they feel, “it’s a purely a money-making racket.” Though the school later tried to pacify the parents by saying, that those not ready to invest in the expensive table...

Going To School On How To Build A China Business Relationship
2011-11-18 23:58:00 This post was written by Matthew Dresden. Matthew handles China matters out of our U.S. office and this is his first post for the blog. Matthew speaks and reads Mandarin and has lived in both Beijing and in Shanghai (but is too politic to tell us which he prefers). Here's Matthew's post: There has been a spate of recent stories in the media about the large numbers of Chinese students applying to U.S. colleges who have doctored their records. A paragraph from an article in the New York Times neatly sums up the issue: Colleges, eager to bolster their diversity and expand their international appeal, have rushed to recruit in China, where fierce competition for seats at Chinese universities and an aggressive admissions-agent industry feed a frenzy to land spots on American campuses. College officials and consultants say they are seeing widespread fabrication on applications, whether that means a personal essay written by an agent or an English proficiency score that doesn...
