A celebration of our latest milestones
As China observes the 72nd anniversary of its founding, we are taking time to reflect on the many milestones we have reached at Wellington College China schools this year. From recent renovations to new beginnings, here is a look at some of our recent accomplishments.
A decade of dedication to education
Over the past 10 years, Wellington College International Tianjin has made extraordinary achievements. Our pupils who sat A-Level exams broke records with their achievements. 50% earned A* grades, the highest grade possible. Our 2021 leavers were able to receive a host of offers from some of the top universities from around the globe, including: Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial College London, University of Pennsylvania, UCLA, Peking University and University of Hong Kong.
Ms Joy Qiao, Founder and Chairman of Wellington College China, said,
"I think education is like growing a garden. Every child is a seed. You offer them sunshine, rain, and a suitable temperature. They will grow into the kinds of flowers they truly are. We educate not just to prepare children for success. We want our pupils to become bridges linking different cultures and languages, promoting cross-cultural communication and understanding and making the world a peaceful place."
"Over the past decade, we have grown into a full-fledged international school where Eastern and Western cultures meet and mingle," said Julian Jeffrey, Executive Master of Wellington College International Tianjin. "It is our responsibility to make students better citizens in the future who are able to shoulder more responsibilities. This is the value we adhere to in our integration into the local community."

Two landmarks for the 10th anniversary, the refurbishment of the Early Years building and new outdoor learning zone, and the rededication of the library as the Founder’s Library, were both statements of intent about the commitment to learning at Wellington. They represent not only a major investment in the future of our facilities but crucially, to the outstanding education of our pupils.

Renovations and new additions
In the new academic year, several Wellington College China schools have taken on a new look. As the number of pupils continues to grow, the schools continue to expand, providing children with more spaces to learn, grow and thrive.
Construction on Huili School Shanghai's new south building was completed. This new addition brings to the campus more dedicated class space for a growing school community. Moreover, with high-quality facilities such as our grand theatre and sports hall, there will be even more opportunities to enrich our pupils
Setting sail for the future
As Wellington College China's largest boarding school, Huili School Nantong will offer 15 years of consecutive education from Kindergarten to High School. On 25 September, Huili School Nantong opened its founding office, and held special opening events for partners and prospective parents. This is a sure sign that Huili Nantong is ready to set sail for the future.
Over the past 12 years, Wellington College China has been committed to education, forging ahead and expanding our family from Tianjin, Shanghai and Hangzhou and soon to Nantong. In the coming years, we look forward to taking the Huili global, providing a quality bilingual education to pupils throughout the world and ushering in a bright future for Wellington College China.
