This book explores the emerging and under-researched phenomenon of internationalised schooling in China. It focuses on a group of "accidental" teachers who fell into teaching through happenstance or necessity, a group of teachers increasingly seeking refuge in Chinese Internationalised Schools. Chinese Internationalised Schools cater to an affluent middle class in China, offering some form of international curriculum which is taught by host country Chinese nationals and expatriate teachers. Chapters focus on three dimensions of teachers' lived experiences of working in these schools: the intercultural, which explores teachers' negotiations of intercultural teacher identities; the precarious, which highlights the struggles they might face at work; and the resilient, which illustrates how teachers survive-and even thrive-in the position. The author identifies a complex interplay between surviving and thriving, giving rise to the concept of "sur-thrival."
