Welcome from the Head

Dear Parents,

Welcome to Wycombe Abbey School Nanjing. It is my great pleasure to share with you what makes our school a special place to learn and grow.

Our connection to the Wycombe Abbey family is a point of great pride for us, linking our students to a well-respected global network. But what matters most is what this means in practice: a commitment to nurturing not just impressive scholars, but young people who show integrity in all they do.

I am being sincere when I say that our focus on the whole child – their character, their well-being, their curiosity – never comes at the cost of academic excellence. We challenge every student intellectually, guiding them through the Chinese National Curriculum, IGCSEs and A Levels in an immersive English environment that prepares them for top universities worldwide.

The spirit of a boarding school defines us, creating a close-knit community where everyone belongs, whether a boarder or a day student. This is a place where learning continues long after the last lesson, in the characters built and the independence gained. Crucially, we see you, the parents, as essential partners in this journey. Your insights and our communication are vital to your child’s success.

We work thoughtfully to blend the best of modern pedagogical approaches with the values of Chinese culture. I invite you to come and see this for yourself. Meet our teachers and students and feel the energetic buzz of a school dedicated to helping your child succeed in every sense.

I look forward to welcoming you soon.

Best wishes,

 

Mr. Ning Tian, Chinese Principal

Matthew Jamieson, Executive Headmaster
