ABOUT US

Opened in August 2014 and located in the New Bund area, Wellington College International Shanghai is a fully co-educational day school with over 1600 pupils, aged 2 to 18 years old. Wellington College International Shanghai is guided by a clear Vision and Purpose founded upon three strong pillars and expressed in our motto: ‘Be You. Be More.’ Guided by our five Wellington Values of Kindness, Responsibility, Respect, Courage and Integrity, we offer a pioneering education to serve and help shape a better world. Our curriculum combines the very best of British and international pedagogies to create a pupil-centric, multilingual, multicultural and inclusive learning experience. We inspire our children to be Learners, Connectors, and Changemakers, to be the best version of themselves, to take pride in where they come from and to be the change they wish to see in the world.

The College is divided into three schools starting with Early Years (Pre-Nursery to Reception) housed at the Early Years Centre, with Primary School (Year 1 to Year 6) and Secondary School (Years 7 to 13) on the main campus. Following the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum through the English National and International Primary Curriculum, Wellington's pupils are then prepared to go on to study a range of IGCSE subjects in years 10 and 11 to then embark on the rigorous IB Diploma Programme in years 12 and 13.

Wellington College International Shanghai aims to be the best international school in China and to be great place for talented professionals to develop their careers. Our academic results to date have been outstanding, our IB students averaged above 37.1 points in 2024, placing Wellington comfortably alongside the best international IB schools.  81% of our IGCSE pupils earning A*/ A grades. Half earned A* grades. In particular, our pupils excelled in STEM subjects with 94% earning A*/A grades in maths and chemistry Additionally, 100% of our pupils earned A*/A in MFL, including foreign language Chinese.

Success in public examinations is important and we celebrate it. However, at Wellington College, we want our pupils to be the very best people that they can be: to be kind, to have integrity in their actions, to take responsibility when necessary, to have respect for their environment, for others and themselves, and finally to show courage when needed. The Wellington values frame the way we think about what it is be a Wellingtonian, including the ways we work and what we hope to become.

Our employment package is excellent, with very competitive salaries, housing, flights, medical insurance and other benefits. We aim to be exemplary employers and have had very low rates of teacher turnover since we opened.
