　　THE NEW ACADEMIC METHODOLOGY – CHINESE ROOTS AND GLOBALIZED BRANCHES

　　Taking from the essence of Chinese traditional education, but introducing all the elements of the Modern Western educational philosophy is the differentiator for the Walton Foreign Language School. Our mission and implementation pays more attention to the changing of the Student Learning Mode, which is realized mainly through the construction of three distinct categories.

　　The Innovative Classroom: This is a cooperative and an multilateral construction which formulates the National Chinese Curriculum with Western and Socratic Methodologies.

　　The Human Oriented School : This is an Autonomous Conversation Experience where by students interact with Foreign Faculty and each other to enhance the linguistic capabilities of each student and implemented with some foundational and developmental courses.

　　The once dominant lecture based model has become courses with multiple explorations, innovative new technologies, and research based courses filled with critical thinking skills and analytic.

　　The Walton Foreign Language School believes that modern schools must focus on “Innovative Teachers Teaching” to students immersed in multiple and variable means of study, comprehension, retention, and learning. The Walton Foreign Languages School makes students become the master of their own learning, so as to obtain and retain knowledge in formation of self-study skills, self-exploration techniques, while simultaneously developing each student’s personality, emotion and critical thinking skills which lead to greater expression and deeper understanding of the material for lifelong application as well as lifelong learning .

　　The Campus Experience As Classroom: The Walton School provides student who work, study, and play together a unique, picturesque and multifaceted learning experience that we humbly refer to as our ONE GLOBAL CLASSROOM. We have boarding and dormitory students, primary school students – all the way through secondary school years and three distinct upper level tracks that serve to meet each individual student’s needs and learning strengths. This diverse group along, with the International Faculty, provides our students with a one of a king Global Experience with a definitive emphasis on English Language Learning populated throughout all our courses and events.

　　改革理念：

　　1、由知识与学业为本，到以人的全面发展为本;

　　2、由追求高分进而获得较高能力，到首先培养高智能进而获得高分;

　　3、由着眼知识的课程观，到以育人为核心的课程观;

　　4、由仅仅以教室为课堂，到以学校为课堂;

　　5、由只关注学生发展，到追求学生、教师和学校的全员全面发展。

　　华顿外国语学校认为：教育是较大的行善，因为教育的核心是人，是改变人，是促成人的全面与终身发展，而不像修桥铺路更多的是方便人;因而，华顿外国语学校打破传统的学业观、知识观、分数观，以学校为课堂，由学校的发展促进人的发展，进而提升知识能力与学业水准，从而奠定终身发展之基石。

　　我们致力于把太仓市华顿外国语学校创建成为培育国际精英的摇篮,通往的桥梁;致力于将学生培养成为会做人,会做事,热爱生活,成为终身学习的精英人才。

　　Reforming the very idea of what Education should be:

　　1. We base student development on not only a superb curriculum but variable and variegated methodologies that will prepare our charges for the rigors of higher academics in not only the rooted Chinese System, but in Western Educational Disciplines with the Socratic skills to meet all life’s challenges.

　　2. Our focus is not on higher scores but on higher education. We concern ourselves with lasting success and not transient grades on a single assignment. We look at the end game of student success as far more than just a grade on a piece of paper. Lifelong skills developed for lifelong learning.

　　3. We work from the belief that a student who is prepared to pass a single test and nothing more will pass the test but fail the course of LIFE. We strive to make sure that a Walton student is prepared to be a great student, a great citizen, a great role model, and a great human being.

　　4.Our reinforcements of our methodologies and pedagogy occur in not only the things we do in the classrooms, but the very that we interact with our student body in every facet. Our mission and our implementation happen in the hallways, on the walkways, during events, right down to the smiles and discipline that our staff exudes as role models for our future generations that we are building on this campus.

　　5. With as much effort as we are placing on building our students, we are also building our faculty and administration. We are hiring the best people to do the toughest jobs and making sure that they have impeccable credentials and even more impeccable character and superior teaching abilities. We are investing in the best and training them to be even better.

　　The Walton Foreign Language School is shattering the traditional educational models in China, while still maintaining and enhancing the rigors and outcomes of the traditional Chinese System. We have taken those attributes of the Chinese System and mixed them with interdisciplinary tactics and cooperative learning. We have made students active participants in their own education. We are here to guide them and facilitate their best learning strategies while simultaneously helping them over the hurdles that can face any differentiated learner. We are committed to the aforementioned mission in the creation of The Walton Foreign Language School…

　　Walton-Taicang as the cradle of the cultivation of the international elite and the bridge to famous schools; it is committed to the nurturing of the students to be exceptional human beings, to do magnificent things, to love life, and to become the elite of life-long learning.
