Welcome to isb

To ensure your smooth transition into our school community, we invite you to our New Family Orientation to be held on Thursday 17, August 2023. We strongly encourage all families to attend this on campus event.

As our newest ISB community members, we would like to invite you to join us on Dragons’ Gate, ISB’s password protected online community portal. Dragons’ Gate will be the portal through which your family stays informed and connected and we encourage you to visit today! 

Your username and a link to set your password needed to access Dragons’ Gate  was sent to you in the Welcome Letter. Please remember to bookmark the page!

Please take the following steps to gain access to ISB’s community portal, Dragons’ Gate:

• set your password making use of your assigned Username provided in the Welcome Letter. Please allow one hour for your password to register, once you have changed it. After this time, you will be able to successfully login to Dragons’ Gate.
• We recommend that you open ISB sites using Google Chrome or FireFox and not Internet Explorer. If you have any trouble logging into Dragons’ Gate, please contact Tony Fu (tfu@isb.cn) of the ICT office for assistance.

This online process will ask you to review and, when necessary, update the information you have already submitted to us and to submit several documents regarding your student’s visa and official medical history. All families will need to complete this registration process in order to attend school.

Please take the following steps to complete the ‘New Student Registration Process’:

1. Sign into Dragons’ Gate using your Dragons Account login details. Click the ‘PowerSchool’ icon under School Tools

2. Once you are in PowerSchool, click the link in the left hand column entitled: “New Student Registration”.

3. Complete and/or update each of the empty family information fields and upload a copy of the following required documents:

i. the student’s current passport photo page and most up-to-date visa; permanent foreign residency permit; or Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau travel permit;

ii. the working parent’s current passport photo page;

iii. the student’s insurance card (if available);

iv. the student’s medical form to be completed by a physician who is in your country or in Beijing.  You could download the Physical Examination form here. Please print it out, bring it to your student’s physician for completion and upload the completed document on your PowerSchool Parent Portal.

Once you have obtained and gathered all of the necessary documents, this registration process should only take a few minutes.

In preparation for the New Family Orientation, we ask that all parents send us a digital, passport sized photo of themselves by no later than Sunday 13 August 2023.
