Welcome to Wellington College Education

Wellington College Education (WCE) is a network founded by Wellington College, whose purpose is to align and maximise the impact of all our global education activities, directly or through partnership, with the ultimate aim of the whole being significantly greater than the sum of our individual parts.

Encompassing ten co-educational schools around the world as well as Festivals of Education in the UK, US, China and Thailand, WCE will expand educational opportunities and foster cultural connectivity through leadership, innovation and international collaboration.

“I am delighted to rejoin the Wellington fold after a decade away. Wellington College Education, alongside our worldwide partners, aims to raise global educational standards and empower young minds by becoming the most admired and innovative family of schools in the world. Nothing is more important than education and having this opportunity to work with schools internationally is an enormous privilege.”

Our Founding School

Wellington College, Crowthorne, UK

Wellington College is a pioneering co-educational institution, which is driven by the need to provide young people with the knowledge, skills and character to fulfil their potential and help shape and serve the ever changing world in which they live.

Our Heritage

Wellington College (Crowthorne, England) was the vision of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Granted its Royal Charter in December 1853, with Queen Victoria laying the foundation stone in 1856, the school opened in 1859 as a national monument to Arthur Wellesley,
the first Duke of Wellington and one of the country’s most renowned military figures and statesmen.

Its purpose was to provide an education to the children of soldiers who died in service. Today, Wellington College is a globally acknowledged, leading British co-educational boarding and day school providing a world-class holistic education within an inclusive community.

International Schools

Our schools across the globe share the values, ethos and unerring ambition of Wellington College Education, and are all authentically ‘Wellington’.

Each school delivers exceptional education, brought vividly to life through a dialogue between pedagogies and cultures, whilst being uniquely tailored to their own communities.

Bilingual Schools (Hiba)

Wellington College Education (China) also provides a partnership with Hiba Academies. Hiba are dedicated to connecting the educational excellence of the East and West to create a pupil-centric, bilingual, bicultural learning experience.

The Hiba ethos is to inspire children to be the best version of themselves, to take pride in where they come from and to be the change they wish to see in the world, expressed through the motto:
Be You. Be More.

Responsibility often begins with the small things.​

Completing the work because it is yours to do. Keeping your word when someone is counting on you. Owning a mistake rather than looking for someone else to blame. Doing your part because others are relying on you.​

None of these moments is particularly dramatic. Yet over time, they shape something important: the understanding that our actions affect more than just ourselves.​

At Wellington College International Lagos, we believe responsibility is not simply about meeting expectations. It is about developing the self-awareness, integrity, and commitment to contribute positively to a community.​

That is why Responsibility is one of our five core values.​

It is built through everyday choices.​
And it grows, one decision at a time.​
