Song said that introducing the school to Luohu was an important action of the local government in taking advantage of international resources to improve education quality in the process of building the district into an all-embracing hub of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

The Luohu government will give full support to the building and the operation of the school so it can become a role model for international schools in the district, he added.
