The beijingkids and JingKids 2014 Spring School Choice Fair is sponsored by RGF AIR Purifiers.
Several years back, parents had limited schooling options in the capital but now there are international, local and amalgamated schools to choose from. Here lies in the conundrum, where do I take my child to school? We are nearly two weeks away from the 2014 beijingkids and JingKids Spring School Choice Fair sponsored by RGF AIR Purifiers on March 1 and 2 at the Hilton Hotel Beijing, where you can get information about schooling from the exhibitors, education related lectures and parent led panels.
