Yew Wah International Education School of Shanghai Gubei

YWIES Shanghai Gubei is in the Gubei area of Changning District, central-west Shanghai — the school gives an address of 600 Gubei Road (postcode 200336). The campus page notes it sits near Shanghai fashion and design districts and is within the city's Gubei/Former French Concession area, so many residential compounds and transport links are nearby; contact the admissions office for specific commute options.

The Gubei campus is an Art & Design-focused secondary campus; the website describes programmes for secondary and upper-secondary students (including Phase/Year 1–3 of upper secondary). Course lists and an ‘Upper Secondary' timetable are published on the school site.

YWIES Shanghai Gubei operates as a co-educational school and states a non‑discrimination admissions policy (accepting qualified students regardless of gender). The campus also offers boarding services for students; dormitory supervision is mentioned on the facilities page.

The school publishes subject-support and English-support options in its upper‑secondary programme (e.g., ‘YWIES Subject Support' and extra English classes for students who need them). Admissions interviews are used to assess academic, social and language needs so the school can plan support; for complex or specialist SEN needs you should contact Admissions to discuss case‑by‑case arrangements.

YWIES Shanghai Gubei is part of the Yew Chung Yew Wah (YCYW) education network (a mainland China / Hong Kong network of Yew Wah and Yew Chung schools) rather than being affiliated to a single foreign country.

The school website and network pages do not indicate a religious affiliation; the school presents itself as an international educational organisation without a stated religious denomination.

For upper‑secondary students the site shows a typical school day beginning at about 08:00 with morning lessons, a core class block and a mid‑morning break around 10:15, then further lesson periods; exact start/end times and breaks can vary by year group and are set by the school.

The school's public website and campus pages describe campus facilities and boarding but do not publish detailed school‑bus routes or a bus timetable for the Gubei campus. If you need a daily bus service or route details, contact the Admissions office (telephone and enquiry form are provided on the site) to confirm whether bus transport is available for your address and which routes are operating.

Application fees
- Application charge reported: RMB 500 (one-time).

Registration / acceptance payment
- The school requires payment of the Registration Fee as part of the application/acceptance process; the Admissions Office issues a Notice of Payment and requires payment to confirm an Offer of Placement within 10 working days of the offer. Payment by bank transfer is documented and the school provides bank account details.

Tuition fees (annual and inferred per-term)
- Published public listings for YWIES Shanghai Gubei show typical annual tuition in the mid-RMB 200,000s for secondary-aged students, with example figures around RMB 238,000 per year. Sixth-form (A‑Level) annual fees have been reported lower in some listings (example RMB 220,000). These representative figures are shown in third‑party fee summaries.
- Inference for per‑term instalments: the school operates on a three‑term year; dividing the annual tuition by three gives an approximate per‑term amount. For example, using RMB 238,000 per year → per term ≈ RMB 79,333 (this per‑term figure is an arithmetic inference, not an officially published per‑term rate).

Boarding fees (if applicable)
- Boarding has been reported as an additional annual charge in third‑party listings; example ranges reported are approximately RMB 36,000–42,000 per year. Boarding is offered but listed separately from tuition.

Other costs and typical additional charges
- Other costs commonly applied by international schools and referenced in market listings for this campus include uniforms, activity and course materials, examinations and portfolio or specialist materials (art/design). Specific published amounts for these items at the Gubei campus are not publicly listed in the school's online admissions notices.

Refund information
- A specific, publicly posted refund policy for registration, deposits or tuition is not shown in the school's admissions notices available in public listings; formal refund terms are typically set out in the Notice of Payment/Acceptance documentation provided to families at offer stage.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- The Offer of Placement must be confirmed by returning the signed Acceptance and payment of required fees as set out in the Notice of Payment within 10 working days of the offer. The school provides bank transfer details for payment. Parents will receive the Notice of Payment with the exact billing schedule and amounts once an offer is issued.
