Nanjing Foreign Language School

Nanjing Foreign Language School, (NFLS, Simplified Chinese: 南京外国语学校, or Nan-Wai (南外) for short), is a middle and high school located in Nanjing, Jiangsu, People's Republic of China. In China, it is one of the seven oldest Foreign Language Schools, which were established during 1963-1964 under the supervision of Premier Zhou Enlai.

NFLS alumni refer to themselves as NFLSers (南外人).

Nanjing Foreign Language School consists of a three-year high school and a three-year middle school. Elementary graduates from Nanjing usually apply to its junior middle school by taking a series of examinations. The form of the examinations is usually in a flux due to government policies varying from year to year. The focus of the examinations, however, is always students' academic skills on Chinese, English, and Mathematics.

After three years of study in the middle school, students usually take part in the standardized high schools entrance tests in Nanjing and a special school-held qualification test. Qualified middle school graduates will continue their high school studies in the high school.

Nanjing Foreign Language School employs the standard education system of Jiangsu Province in disciplines other than foreign languages. In its foreign language education students may select one from English, German, French, or Japanese as their major language of concentration. The latter three languages are usually not offered at Chinese middle schools or high schools. In addition, the English education is more intensive. The classes are conducted by local and foreign teachers with overseas language textbooks. Students at NFLS therefore attain a high level of foreign language skill upon graduation.

The principal of the school (As of 2011) is Mr. Dong Zhengjing.
