9月26日，佛山暨大港澳子弟学校迎来了一场富有深度的教育交流活动——“清华教育领导力国际研修项目”佛山研学在我校拉开了序幕。

来自全国各地的必威Betway中文版领域管理者及教研骨干共聚一堂，围绕心理健康教育、DSE课程发展与多元升学路径等议题展开深入探讨。本次交流不仅聚焦大湾区教育融合，更面向教育创新凝聚思路，为教育实践提供了宝贵的经验与参考。

On September 26, Foshan ASJ hosted a profound educational exchange event—the Foshan Study Tour of the “International Professional Certificate in School Leadership (IPCSL)” commenced at our school.

Educational administrators and teaching research leaders from across the nation gathered to engage in in-depth discussions on topics including mental health education, DSE curriculum development, and diversified pathways to higher education. This exchange not only focused on educational integration within the Greater Bay Area but also fostered innovative thinking in education, providing invaluable insights and references for educational practice.

Focusing on the theme of psychology, Dr. Ni Shiguang, Professor at Tsinghua University Shenzhen Graduate School and Director of the Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Digital Mental Health and Intelligent Generation in Philosophy and Social Sciences, delivered a lecture titled “10 Mind-Body-Spirit Wellness Methods from Positive Psychology” to participants of the training program and faculty members of our university.

During the lecture, Professor Ni systematically expounded on the principles of positive psychology. Moving beyond traditional psychology's “problem-oriented” approach, he emphasized an intervention strategy centered on “positive prevention” to help students enhance psychological resilience. Drawing on a wealth of practical case studies, he detailed directly applicable mind-body-spirit wellness methods, providing educators in attendance with practical solutions that blend theoretical depth with real-world applicability.

Additionally, Professor Ni focused on the integration of technology and education, exploring the application value of AI technology and gamification design in positive psychology education settings to make positive psychological education more engaging. At the conclusion of the lecture, Professor Ni engaged in interactive discussions with attendees, addressing practical concerns raised by the audience and further deepening participants' understanding of positive psychology practices.

The afternoon exchange session focused on exploring diverse pathways for higher education through the “DSE + Joint Entrance Examination.” The team from Foshan ASJ shared insights across three dimensions: school operations, DSE enrollment trends, and SEL curriculum implementation.

佛山暨大港澳子弟学校校长张晔以学校创办背景为切入点，详细介绍了我校作为粤港澳大湾区教育创新实践者的定位与使命，并从课程体系、师资建设、学生培养等多维度展开讲解，呈现了一所创新型国际学校的教育生态与未来视野。

Principal Christine Zhang of Foshan ASJ Residents began by outlining the school's founding context, detailing its positioning and mission as an educational innovator within the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. She then elaborated on multiple dimensions including curriculum systems, faculty development, and student cultivation, presenting the educational ecosystem and future vision of an innovative international school.

Principal Christine Zhang emphasized, “Education is not about indoctrination, but ignition; growth is not a single path, but diverse connections.” The school's core value lies not only in providing quality education for families from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, overseas Chinese communities, and foreign nationals, but also in cultivating a new generation with a sense of national pride and global vision through “whole-person education.” The school's educational endeavors aim not only to cultivate a new generation of Hong Kong and Macao youth with lofty aspirations and noble character, but also to forge deeper connections and mutual recognition between Hong Kong and Macao families, youth and mainland.

Following this, Vice Principal Elaine Tang delivered a presentation on “DSE University Admissions Trends.” Against the backdrop of the ongoing educational integration between Hong Kong, Macau, and mainland, she highlighted the unique advantages of the DSE curriculum. Not only is it recognized by numerous universities in Hong Kong, Macau, and overseas, but the number of mainland institutions accepting DSE results has also been steadily increasing in recent years, offering students broader options for further education.

Vice Principal Elaine Tang also compared the suitability of the DSE and the Joint Entrance Examination for Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan students, offering tailored advice for students with different academic goals. This helped educators in attendance gain a clearer understanding of the logic behind the DSE's diverse pathways to higher education.

Finally, Ms. Katy Zhang, Director of the Elementary Division and Director of Mental Health, shared practical insights on SEL (Social and Emotional Learning) programs. She emphasized, “SEL isn't just a subject—it's an educational culture. Through emotional education, we aim to nurture compassionate and resilient future citizens.”

The school has developed a school-based SEL curriculum system based on the five core competencies framework of the internationally renowned CASEL organization (self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, responsible decision-making), tailored to students' age characteristics: At the elementary level, students cultivate emotional awareness and expression skills, learning to recognize basic emotions and practice attentive listening; at the middle school level, students enhance their interpersonal relationship management and responsible decision-making abilities. Simultaneously, the school integrates SEL principles into campus culture, enabling students to develop their social-emotional competencies organically within their daily environment.

At the conclusion of the study tour, Ms. Lin Li, Vice President of Hong Kong Victoria Harbour Education Group, delivered a speech. She expressed sincere gratitude for the long-standing empowerment and support provided by the International Professional Certificate in School Leadership  to the Group, and looked forward to deepening educational exchanges and jointly promoting development between both parties in the future.

During the discussion session, participating educators shared insights on diverse educational models based on their own teaching experiences, while also expressing high recognition for the distinctive educational approach and curriculum innovation at Foshan ASJ.

The Foshan study tour of Tsinghua University's Educational Leadership Program not only facilitated a collision of educational philosophies and practical experiences among educators, but also showcased innovative achievements in educating Hong Kong and Macao students within the Greater Bay Area, using the Foshan ASJ as a case study. As educational integration continues to advance, such exchanges will inject greater vitality into the high-quality development of education.
