"Wellington Talk" Live - Streaming Podcast

Pressure, frustration, panic, and anxiety... just some of the feelings a pupil goes through when exams are nearing. It seems that exams have somehow become a "negative word", where pupils are scared, and parents are result-driven.

An examination is an educational assessment intended to measure a test-takers knowledge, skill, aptitude, or physical fitness in many other topics. If a person wants to succeed in the field of work, he or she must have a great deal of knowledge and the ability to apply them. The public examination system was born out of this urgent need. But there is much more that cannot be examined, such as morals, creativity, curiosity and other soft skills.

Wellington College Tianjin is committed to the ultimate development of well-rounded pupils who embrace the Wellington values and identities. This is also reflected in our assessment system. Our examinations are diverse and designed for different study levels, emphasizing critical and independent thinking, as well as communication and problem-solving skills. 

In November, we would like to share with you how the assessment system works and the rationale for assessment design at Wellington College Tianjin.
