Hangzhou Entel Foreign Language School was established in 2008 by the Jincheng (金成) Group; the school is a privately run institution operated in collaboration with Hangzhou Foreign Languages School as the entrusted manager. It has developed as a 12‑year (K‑12/middle & high school) institution with multiple academic tracks and a growing middle/high‑school campus since its founding. Over the years the school has signed international cooperation agreements (for example with the Goethe‑Institute PASCH) and been recognized in provincial and municipal international‑education initiatives.
The school community comprises students, Chinese and foreign teachers, and families, and it regularly hosts international exchange visits and collaborative projects with partner schools and universities. Entel runs a broad calendar of curricular and extracurricular activities that include multilingual theatre productions, STEM teams (including iGEM participation), study tours and university fairs that engage both students and visiting scholars or admissions officers. Local and cross‑regional cultural events (for example exchange visits with Hong Kong schools and seasonal community festivals) are used to connect students and families with the wider Hangzhou education community.
The school organizes regular home–school activities such as Open Days, class‑level parent meetings and family festivals; these events are used for academic briefings, curriculum consultation and community building. Examples include an annual Open Day and themed family events (the elementary “双倍爱” family celebration and accompanying food‑festival activities), which bring together parents, school leaders and students. School leadership frequently holds information sessions and Q&A meetings with parents (principal briefings and enrollment consultations have been reported in local coverage), and the school invites parent representatives to participate in class‑level coordination and volunteer activities. In practice, parent engagement at Entel spans formal parent‑teacher meetings, family‑school performances and community volunteer roles that support single‑day events and exchanges.
Hangzhou Entel Foreign Language School (est. 2008) is a 12-year middle-and-high-school campus located in Hangzhou's Future Science and Technology City.

The campus is presented as being close to Zhijiang Lab and Alibaba's headquarters, within the Yuhang innovation area. Entel offers multiple university pathways (Gaokao domestic track plus overseas tracks including A-Level, Australian, German and Japanese programs) and highlights multilingual teaching and a 2.5+3.5 transition pathway from middle to high school.
