Wellington College International won Private School Operator of the Year at the Education Investment Awards 2026. Joel Worrall and Paul Vanni accepted the award. However, this recognition truly belongs to the entire global community. It reflects the dedication and expertise of every team member.
This win caps a period of remarkable growth for the organisation. Wellington opened five new schools in just three years. These new locations include Jakarta, San Francisco, Nigeria, Qatar, and Kenya.
This is a proud milestone. Yet, Wellington College International believes education goes beyond awards, school numbers, or global reach. Education is truly about the learning journey.
The most important measures of success are often the quietest ones. Students secure first-choice university places. They also write their first sentences, score early goals, and form lifelong friendships. Genuine wellbeing, mental health, and self-awareness underpin all these achievements.
The organisation is now looking ahead. Its primary focus remains on helping every student flourish as a whole person. Wellington is also growing its commitment to human development in the age of AI.
