Health and safety priority

The entire Dulwich College Shanghai Pudong staff is excited to welcome students back for the start of the 2020-21 school year on September 1. It is fantastic to see families and Dulwich staff returning from overseas back to Shanghai. With so much global uncertainty, it has never been more important to bring together the diverse, inclusive community that Dulwich Pudong has become known for.

The college’s top priority is to prepare for a great start to the school year. Much attention has been given to establishing protocols and procedures to ensure a healthy and safe environment for our students’ year of learning. We cannot be complacent, so we will continue to regularly monitor the global and local situation as well as updates to regulations.

Excellent progress has been made to bring back overseas teachers. The college has successfully secured letters of invitation enabling teachers to apply for the special M visa and subsequently book flights back to Shanghai. Two teachers have already completed this process, one is in quarantine with her family and four will be flying in this week. A further 58 staff and family members have booked flights and will return to China in the near future.

Each DUCKS and junior school class will be led face to face by experienced, caring teachers in Shanghai. Classes in the senior school will be led by highly qualified, experienced teachers, approximately 90 percent of whom will start the school year in Shanghai. The college continues to work with families whose students are still located abroad, to ensure they receive a Dulwich education online, even if they cannot be on campus.

Since 2003, Dulwich College Shanghai Pudong has been a leading international school. We look forward to the 2020-21 year, providing all students quality academics with high expectations and standards.
