From the school principal
“BSG was founded with the aim of providing British private education of the highest standard to the expatriate community of Guangzhou. Today, I have no hesitation in affirming that the school not only fulfils its core mission but continues to develop and improve year-on-year. I personally feel privileged to be a part of BSG's community of dedicated staff, supportive parents and high-achieving pupils. Please get in touch with us should you wish to learn more about our school.”
