Thus, NEHS was created to satisfy the conditions set by the Ministry of Education. IBSH only admits children of employees of private enterprises in the Park, government organizations, Industrial Technology Research Institute, National Chiao Tung University and National Tsing Hua University.
The Bilingual Department of NEHS changed its name before the 2008–2009 school year after a visit from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges in the spring of 2008.
