How is the education at Wellington College International Shanghai? Let’s take a look. Passion and purpose: Remarkable women among us
HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY
Women are essential to our success at Wellington College China schools. Whether they are inspiring the pupils in the classrooms and art studios or working behind the scenes in the administrative offices, this IB school in China witnesses their passion and commitment every day, blazing trails as learners, connectors and changemakers. Today, in honour of International Women’s Day, we are sharing the stories of six Wellington women who truly embody Wellington College China‘Be You. Be More.’ spirit.
We are learners
who empower growth
Elisa Yan
Teacher of Chinese
EdTech Lead
Wellington College Tianjin
“What matters is what you can bring to the job, what skills and abilities you possess are more important.”
Elisa started at Wellington College Tianjin as a teacher of Chinese, but her commitment and hard work soon elevated her to the position of EdTech Lead. She now works across departments, finding ways to enhance teaching and learning with innovative technologies. Elisa's success underscores that a woman’s talents and abilities are not limited by her chosen fields and that the only limitations we face are the ones we impose upon ourselves.
Deborah Bauman
Teacher of Art
Huili School Hangzhou
“I believe in the transformative power of art to create positive change in the world.”
Deborah’s passion for art is driven by her desire to share it with as many people as possible. She puts in countless hours of hard work towards this goal, believing that artwork created purely from the heart creates deep connections between us. Her wish is for every aspiring female artist to find happiness and fulfilment on their creative journey. And it certainly shines through in her art classes.
We are connectors

Emily Gu

“There are limitless opportunities for women in every profession.”
Outdoor learning is a key pillar of our Early Years provision, and Emily is one of its greatest champions. She collaborates across nurseries, classrooms and year groups to ensure that our youngest learners at Huili Nursery Shanghai and Wellington’s Early Years Centre build strong bodies as well as strong minds. She is truly an inspiration to all those who seek to empower and nurture children's limitless potential.
