Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

The Confucius Classroom at Katharine Lady Berkeley's School started running on July 6, 2007. The Confucius Institute Headquarters (Hanban) awarded the Confucius Classroom status in recognition of the school's achievements in Chinese language and culture education, providing Katharine Lady Berkeley's School with a grant. This Confucius Classroom is one of the first five Confucius Classrooms to be established in the United Kingdom. The other four pioneer Confucius Classrooms are at Calday Grange Grammar School, Djanogly City Academy, Hummersknott School & Language College, and Kingsford Community School. The original Confucius Institute project is tracked under Record ID#44315.

1. AidData has coded Peking University and Affiliated High School of Peking University as the implementing agencies because they are the Chinese partner institutions for the Confucius Institute at the UCL Institute of Education, which oversees this Confucius Classroom. 2. The Chinese name of the school is 凯萨琳夫人伯克利学校.
