What is The Bridge | China?
The Bridge | China is a Wellington College China initiative to build global education partnerships and connections. It gives our teachers the chance to engage more deeply with schools across China, fostering collaboration between schools and helping them evolve from good to great through innovative education programmes.

Our Mission: Advancing Teacher Development and International Collaboration
We are a collaborative hub that partners with like-minded institutions to support 21st-century learners. We focus on teacher development programmes and fostering collaboration between schools to create impactful international education partnerships. By working closely with Wellington College in the UK, we enhance school improvement, implement research-based practice and drive innovation in education. The Bridge | China by Wellington College China is committed to building strong global networks between schools and preparing pupils for the future.

What We Do: Driving Innovation and Excellence in Education
The Bridge | China plays a vital role in advancing teaching and learning across the Wellington College Education network. Through our focus on teacher development programmes and innovative education programmes, we research teaching methodologies, assessment strategies and approaches to learning. We also foster collaboration between schools and develop new programmes for Chinese language instruction, pupil wellbeing, coaching and staff leadership development. To support Wellington College China's strategic priorities, we drive excellence in academic outcomes, university placements, staff recruitment and retention and the deployment of educational technology.
Global Education Partnerships and Teacher Development
As part of our commitment to international education partnerships, we facilitate cross-school collaboration, positioning ourselves as a global thought leader in international and bilingual education. By providing professional development opportunities for educators at all career stages, we ensure quality and consistency in teaching and assessment across the entire Wellington College China network.

Our highly talented educators work with us full-time, part-time or on a seconded basis. This flexible model enables broader project engagement, more research opportunities, and chances for staff throughout the Wellington College China network to gain new and enriching career experiences through travel and secondments.
