About us:

Kang Chiao International School (KCIS) is a professional education team across the Taiwan and Chinese mainland. At Kang Chiao, we take the idea of, “Nurturing International Leaders, and Preparing Students for a Beautiful Future,” as its educational goal; and encourage students to explore, experience, and express themselves, so that they dare to pursue their dreams in the future and create successful life experiences.

The Taiwan Kang Chiao International School, located in Taipei, was founded in 2002. This initial KCIS educational endeavor is also highly respected for its educational value in Taiwan. The KCIS East China (KCISEC) campus, located in Kunshan, China, was founded in 2012. KCISEC was instrumental in successfully creating a new model of international education that crossed the Taiwan Straits. In 2018, KCIS Xi’an Qujiang Campus, a 12-year bilingual school system from primary to senior high school was set up to replicate the KCIS education experience. This location has officially opened in September 2019. For the 2022-2023 school year, the student enrollment in grades 1 to 11 is 1300, with 350 faculty staff. There are 63 international teachers currently teaching at this campus.
