Beijing Haidian International School, Beijing

Multiple Reddit commenters across 2022 to 2025 tell prospective teachers and parents to avoid the school, with descriptions ranging from "awful management" to "BIG RED FLAGS".
Recurring complaints from current and former staff: long Friday hours, no annual pay rise, large class sizes, and unpaid social insurance contributions.
One current staff member with four years at the school flagged pressure to work across two campuses without proper visa coverage and warned of legal exposure for foreign teachers.
One commenter described it as a family-run business with no progression and called the foreign director a pervert.
A 2022 parent post claimed friends working there had seen teachers excused for assaulting children or showing up impaired, and that there was no real curriculum.
One ex-student visitor in 2023 said the campus itself is large and pleasant.
Multiple commenters question whether it qualifies as a genuine international school despite the name.
