Wellington College International Shanghai opened in August 2014 and is located in the Qiantan / New Bund area of Pudong, next to the Huangpu River and close to the Oriental Sports Center and the metro (Oriental Sports Center station). The College serves children aged 2–18 and offers a bilingual model with English as the official language of instruction and Mandarin taught throughout the school. The campus is described on the school site as the largest in the greater downtown area of Shanghai and includes extensive sports and arts facilities, two pools and a 400m running track. The school publishes its yearly tuition schedule on the website (2025–26 fees shown) and a prospectus with class-size details (Pre‑Nursery/Nursery 20; Reception and Years 1–6 typically 22; Years 7+ typically 22) and enrolment of 1,600+ pupils. If you'd like the campus latitude/longitude, I can look this up on Google Maps (the school website gives the postal address but does not list coordinates).
