Wycombe Abbey School Nanjing (WASNJ) is situated just east of Nanjing city centre at the heart of the Tangshan Thermal Spring area. The site itself comprises three schools, a Kindergarten, a Lower School and an Upper School, providing exceptional education for students from Early Years through to Year 13 (Grade 12). The successful candidate will be expected to develop exceptional working relations with the leadership and teachers across the School.
Wycombe Abbey School Nanjing is established as a private school enabling local Chinese nationals to enjoy the benefits of a Wycombe Abbey School education. The majority of the student body consists of Chinese nationals studying a unique scheme of work where an internationalised programme complements the Chinese National Curriculum. The students are taught in both Mandarin and English so that they can graduate from the School with undergraduate levels of both languages and thereby flourish at premium universities around the world.
Wycombe Abbey education guarantees much more than just academic success. Wycombe Abbey School Nanjing offers boarding to students from Grade 1 through to Grade 12 (Years 2 to 13) with outstanding facilities for learning, innovation and enterprise, performing arts and sport that are the hallmark of our Wycombe Abbey Schools Group. Students will be prepared for undergraduate life in universities across the globe and for an increasingly international workplace. Close personal attention is paid to the development of each student’s confidence, resilience, independence and character, alongside the development of the collaborative skills required in life beyond school.
The School’s facilities are substantial, spread over a single campus site with the main academic building covering nearly 8000 square metres. The space includes teaching areas for both the Lower and Upper Schools, library facilities, computer and design departments, a 600 seat, acoustically designed theatre, large music department with over 35 practice rooms, and a dedicated recording studio. The facilities are outstanding, and we will be looking to make our programme a beacon of excellence within Wycombe Abbey Schools Group and beyond. This position provides an exciting opportunity to shape this early phase of WASNJ’s development.
