That limits the number of teachers who can work in those schools then. Like the insistence in many Welsh schools on teachers being able to speak Welsh. "Sorry, you might be a Master Teacher in Computer Science but you can't work here unless you learn to do it in Welsh/Mandarin/French/Swahili". I'm a huge fan of multilinguality, but not at the expense of other important subjects.
Er, I assume it means only that at this school there is ONE teacher who can teach Mandarin, in English, to each class at different times on the scheduled timetable. And, quite possibly, other subjects, also in English, at other times. Apologies if this was not clear.
