WAISCZ is managed by BE Education and is a boarding school, from kindergarten to year 13. WAISCZ aims to prepare students to study abroad, primarily in the United Kingdom and United States by offering both IGCSE and A-Level study programmes.[1] WAISCZ is open to both Chinese and foreign students aged 2–18.
The school moved to its new campus in February 2015. The campus includes teaching buildings, a swimming pool and boathouse, a theatre building, indoor basketball and tennis courts and outdoor sports facilities consisting of a stadium with a grass sports field.
In September 2016, it was rebranded as Wycombe Abbey School and is the first overseas affiliate of Wycombe Abbey School in the United Kingdom. It enrolls both male and female students, while the mother school in the UK only enrolls female students. As of 2016, the school had students from at least 18 different countries, with Chinese students making up about 80% of the student body.[2]
