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.
Leading Education
Wellington College leads education through a dynamic ecosystem of innovation and professional learning.
The Bridge connects global educators and turns evidence into impactful practice. The Festival of Education amplifies this mission through a global series of thought‑leading events that unite educators to explore, challenge and shape the future of learning. The Institute for Human Flourishing develops the human competencies young people need to thrive. The Wellington AI Institute guides schools in the responsible adoption of AI. The Wellington Leadership and Coaching Institute develops leaders of character and purpose who contribute confidently and positively to their communities.
