While curricula in China’s schools are designed and approved by the Chinese communist regime, international schools in China for foreign citizens have been independent of that. However, in recent years, the regime has tightened control and pushed its indoctrination into the international schools.
In 1987, the Chinese regime started to allow foreign embassies in China to open international schools for children of foreign diplomats. Since then, international schools for foreign citizens have become popular in mainland China among rich Chinese whose children have been allowed to enroll.
