Stevan Vojinovic
My name is Stevan Vojinovic. I come from Serbia, but I have been working in China for 7 years. I am currently working at Changwai Bilingual School in Changzhou. I studied physical education and sports and also completed a master's degree in physical education and sports. I also have IB certificates (category 3 SEHS, PYP making happen, concept driven learners). I am currently studying IPGCE at Derby University. I came to China in 2017 and worked as a sports coach in Shanghai. I originally worked for a state-owned company that sent me to state-run schools in China. There I gained the experience of working with 50 students per class. After 3 years, I moved to a foreign sports company that has contracts with British schools in Shanghai, where I worked at the British International School, Nord Anglia and Harrow. Also, I worked for a year at the YK PAO school in Sangai in all three departments (Primary, Middle and HS) where I coached and led their sports teams to competitions. In 2021, I moved to Changzhou to work at Changwai Bilingual school where I was a PSPE teacher in primary. Changwai Bilingual school (CBS) is an IB school that is one of 44 in China that has IB from Kindergarten to High School. After a year of working at the school, I was promoted to Head of PE whole school, which is still my position today. I am in charge of improving our curriculum and promoting physical activity and a healthy lifestyle. Last year I attended PHASE in Hong Kong, after which I got the desire to share some of my knowledge and experiences with my colleagues as they shared with me.
