Dulwich College Shanghai Puxi is the second Dulwich international school in Shanghai, founded in 2016. We provide a world‑class holistic education rooted in Dulwich’s 400‑year heritage. Our curriculum is academically rigorous, while we place great emphasis on the holistic development of every student. Our wellbeing programme and wide range of co‑curricular activities support students’ academic, physical, social and emotional growth. Our well‑established Mandarin programme enables all students, regardless of their background, to engage with and flourish in the local culture. The curriculum is based on the British National Curriculum, adapted and enriched to meet the needs of our international student body, culminating in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme in Years 12 and 13.

Dulwich College Shanghai Puxi provides education for students aged 2 to 18. English is the main language of instruction, with a Mandarin‑English dual language programme in DUCKS. Our junior school uses topic‑based cross‑curricular learning, while senior students follow the British National Curriculum, IGCSE and the IB Diploma Programme. We adopt a holistic approach to nurture students’ confidence and curiosity, supported by rich co‑curricular activities. Benefiting from our global school network, our students achieve excellent university placements and scholarships at world‑top institutions, upholding Dulwich’s tradition of excellence.

Students at Dulwich College Shanghai Puxi have abundant opportunities to explore their creativity, pursue their interests and satisfy their intellectual curiosity outside the classroom. From preschool through to middle and senior school, all students are encouraged to take advantage of the co-curricular activities available at our international school as part of our holistic curriculum, to learn and develop new skills or devote time to an interest.
Co-curricular activities are offered each day of the school week, and extend through to weekends with our extensive Saturday CCA Programme. We run dedicated school bus services before and after CCAs most school days. CCAs are offered covering a wide range of disciplines, from Sports and The Arts through to music, science and board games. We value the CCAs as more than just additional opportunities for students to have fun. They should stimulate, excite and extend children’s learning, helping them to take their existing passions to a deeper level, and to discover new areas of interest throughout the year.

Dulwich College Shanghai Puxi opened in August 2016, featuring a 40,000-square-metre purpose-built, state-of-the-art campus in South Minhang.
