Abstract

In today’s accelerated globalization process, the links between countries are becoming increasingly close. The English Curriculum Standards for Compulsory Education (2022 Edition) also sets out new requirements for students’ intercultural communication competence. The relationship between language and culture is reflected behind intercultural communication competence, and the development of students’ intercultural communication competence is valued by educational circles at home and abroad. Therefore, this paper discusses the current situation of the development of English intercultural communication competence in junior high schools from three perspectives, that are schools, teachers and students.
