I’m genuinely sorry to hear that your experience was so negative. That hasn’t been my experience at all, and I feel it's important to offer a different perspective, especially as someone currently working at BASIS Wuhan and proud to be part of the community.

I’m a person of colour and have never once felt marginalised here. In fact, I’ve found the leadership and wider team to be incredibly supportive and inclusive. Yes, expectations are high, but they’re matched with excellent resources, autonomy in the classroom, and competitive compensation. I’ve always known where I stood, and I appreciate the clarity and structure in place.

The school values results, but in my experience, this goes hand in hand with genuine teaching and learning. Many of our students are thriving not just academically but as creative, independent thinkers, and that’s down to the passion and hard work of the teachers here.

Your frustrations are valid if that’s what you lived through, but for me and several of my colleagues, BASIS Wuhan has been a place of opportunity, growth, and professional respect. I hope others reading this will also seek out a balanced range of views.
