About ,MLES
Our system
Maple leaf education systems (MLES)was established in 1995 and represents the vision of Mr.Shenman Jen, Founder & CEO, to operate a high quality, externally accredited, private school in China. The educational system Mr.Jen introduced is a blend of the model he had witnessed while living in BC. Canada , with the strengths and cultural riches that exist in the Chinese system.
MLES is a comprehensive, integrated educational system with over 30schools from pre-school to high school offering both Canadian and Chinese graduation diplomas for grades 10-12. ESL is an important component of our educational system preparing our students in all levels of our school system to meet the challenges of the all-English high school program. MLES has made a commitment to increase the number of hours each week that students study English and to ensure that qualified native speakers teach at least 50% of these classes.

Our schools
The Government of British Columbia accredited the delivery of the BC graduation program at our fist school in Dalian in 1998. we now offer the BC graduation program in Dalian, Wuhan, Tianjin, Chongqing and Zhenjiang and are planning to expand this offering into our newest schools in Shanghai and Luoyang in 2013. our first Foreign Nationals Schools was accredited to offer the BC grades K-9 program in 2001 and we now offer this program in Dalian and Wuhan.
