Haileybury Tianjin (which consists of Haileybury Senior School Tianjin and The Haileybury Elite School Tianjin) celebrated its ten year anniversary on 13 September shortly after the start of the new Chinese school year. Haileybury Tianjin is Australia’s leading transnational school education project.
The Australian Ambassador to China, Mr Graham Fletcher, attended the 10th Anniversary events at the School and the celebratory evening dinner. The CEO of the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority Mr Stephen Gniel and the Victorian State Commissioner in Greater China Mr Brett Stevens were also in attendance.
Haileybury CEO Mr Derek Scott is also the Chair of Haileybury’s China operations and attended the event, which was also the last formal occasion for the Executive Principal of Haileybury Tianjin, Mr Peter Rogerson, who finished his excellent four year leadership of the School at the end of September.
The School continues to receive great support from Chinese education officials in Wuqing (where the School is based) and Tianjin.
Haileybury Tianjin is in great shape in the post Covid-19 environment with more than 800 students attending the School, and 90 percent of which are boarding students. The school delivers outstanding VCE outcomes for the Year 12 graduates with a two year median ATAR average of 80, with the majority of these students choosing to then study at Australian G8 universities.
