BSc (Hons) Mathematics PGCE - UK - Christine joined Pudong after a 9 year career break during which she brought up her daughter and followed her husband as he worked in Australia, Malaysia, Thailand and now China.  Chris grew up and studied mathematics in Scotland before moving to Oxford as a post graduate studying education at Somerville College. After teaching for several years, Chris changed careers and worked in IT, Finance, Consultancy, Sales and Marketing. She considers bringing up her daughter to be her greatest and most rewarding achievement in her life and enjoys being in the Education sector again and working alongside great professional teachers and excellent facilities.  Time permitting, Chris loves playing golf, bridge and is an avid puzzle solver.

Alison McLeod - Admissions Assistant

AMC

BA (Hons) Business Studies - UK - Alison joined the Admissions team at Pudong in May 2008 having lived in Shanghai since 2006.  Prior to that, she lived in Gloucestershire, Norway, Scotland and Nigeria with her family.  Having spent several years working in Local Government in Scotland, Alison made her first foray into the Education sector as Clerk to the Governors at a local secondary school in Gloucestershire and then worked with students with disabilities at the University of Gloucestershire.  She considers that the exposure to many different cultures at a young age has had a very positive effect on her children, and she would highly recommend that others take the opportunity to live overseas if offered it.  She enjoys working at Pudong and particularly enjoys helping new families to settle in to the school and a new city.  In her spare time, Alison enjoys visiting Shanghai’s many and varied markets, entertaining friends and exploring Asia and beyond with her family.

Parents seeking admission for their children are invited to make an appointment with the Admissions Officer in order to view the school.  Please note that all visitors to the school are required to show some form of photographic identity at the security gate.

At that time, parents can meet the Principal and discuss at length the future educational needs of their children and how Pudong Campus can best meet these needs. The children should accompany the parents to that meeting if at all possible.
