Staff comments

1. AidData has coded Tianjin Municipal Education Commission as the implementing agency because Tianjin Municipal Education Commission is the Chinese partner institution for the Confucius Institute for Scotland’s Schools, which oversees this Confucius Classroom. 2. Hanban website listed Tianjin No.2 Experimental Primary School while CISS website listed Hedong No. 2 Experimental Primary School as the partner school. The latter is chosen because the CISS website is more updated than the Hanban website. 3. The Chinese name of the school is 伯恩赛德小学.
