Home away from home | Our boarding and scholarship programmes

Boarding at a Wellington College China school provides pupils with a wealth of opportunities for personal growth. They learn to become independent, self-reliant and to explore their interests in greater depth. They expand their horizons in an immersive international and bilingual learning environment. More importantly, they form friendships that will last them a lifetime.

Wellington College China schools aim to provide a caring and supportive educational community that develops well-rounded individuals with the knowledge and skills to thrive in an ever-changing world. Our Wellington College Internationals provide an education based on the English national curriculum while our and Hiba bilingual schools follow the Chinese national curriculum while combining the best of Eastern and Western pedagogies. Guided by our Values of Courage, Respect, Integrity, Kindness and Responsibility we want our pupils to embody the Wellington Identity of being Inspired, Intellectual, Independent, Individual and Inclusive.

We offer boarding programmes at our campuses in Tianjin and Hangzhou and our new flagship boarding campus, Hiba Academy Nantong. We also provide a variety of scholarship programmes for pupils who show outstanding performance in academics, sports and the arts. And through our Shuping scholarship, exceptional pupils from working class families in China can realise their potential with a Wellington College China education.

In the coming weeks, we will once again hold our ‘Meet the Master’ talks. These are informative online and offline sessions in which you can learn everything you need to know about the boarding experience at a Wellington College China school. Chief Executive Master, Julian Jeffrey will be joined by our Masters in Tianjin, Hangzhou and Nantong to share their insights and experiences and answer any questions our prospective pupils and parents might have. We invite you to join us!
