I. About META College


META College, presented by Huawai-Tongman Foreign Language School (formerly known as the Affiliated Foreign Language School of South China Normal University) in celebration of its 10th anniversary, is known as a future-oriented educational platform for “transcending limits and exploring infinite possibilities”.

META is derived from the Greek word for “beyond”, symbolizing “transcending reality and seeking self-reference”.

Deeply integrating innovative technologies, META College has created a learning space that transcends physical limitations for every member of the Huawai community. Here, both teachers and students can freely navigate an infinite world, immersing themselves in learning scenarios from diverse cultures and historical backgrounds to rapidly accumulate knowledge.

A key highlight of META College is its emphasis on parallel education, which integrates both quality education and subject learning. We offer a wide range of courses in fields such as science, humanities and social sciences, sports, and the arts.

Another highlight of META College is its focus on developing students’ spatial thinking abilities. We strive to foster students’ capabilities for abstract observation and innovative thinking about spatial phenomena. At META College, students not only learn but also engage in transcendent thinking and creativity about themselves and the world.

This diverse, multi-dimensional learning experience beyond the classroom helps students more effectively integrate into the global knowledge system, enabling them to become future leaders with an international outlook and cross-cultural communication skills. It also adheres to Huawai’s unique educational philosophy of “Embrace China, Embrace the World”.


II.  Meaning behind the Name 


“Meta”, derived from the Greek word for “Beyond”, represents our mission to integrate the essence of various disciplines and offer students diverse learning experiences. In addition, “Meta” also embodies the philosophical connotation of “transcendent” in English, symbolizing “transcending reality and seeking self-reference” in education. Besides learning knowledge, students are encouraged to delve into its deeper meaning and acquire critical thinking and innovative capabilities.


III. Physical Space 

META College is located on the Floor 1, 2, and 8 of the Huawai-Tongman Building. It houses a variety of well-equipped classrooms for subjects such as science and innovation, wind music, dance, choir, baking, fencing, STEM, history, fine arts, geography, psychology, and information technology, providing Huawai students with a vibrant and diverse learning environment.

Our facilities offer more than just excellent space. They are also equipped with cutting-edge hardware, ensuring that students can engage in practical learning experiences that foster their creativity and spirit of exploration.

 

IV. Educational Philosophy 

How do we answer Qian Xuesen’s question? How can we address Qian Liqun’s concerns? As a pioneer in exploring the important educational topic of “Embrace China, Embrace the World”, META College seeks to balance the educational philosophies of Socrates and Confucius. We emphasize parallel education integrating both subject learning and quality education, with a commitment to cultivating world citizens with Chinese and international perspectives.

META College maintains an educational approach that cultivates spatial thinking, which is closely related to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning, in order to better adapt to the needs of contemporary life and learning.
