New school remembers China's pioneering graduate

The school aims to cultivate Chinese children to be bi-lingual with critical thinking and creativity, which will prepare them well to live and work bi-culturally.

During Dehong's briefing session held in Beijing on Saturday, Jing Yao, school development director of Dulwich College Beijing, introduced both the long history of Dulwich and the new vision of its new member Dehong.

"Students are the core in the educational system of Dulwich. We always put students in the first place and give the best things to them. You can find that it is the art works that were displayed around our campus, rather than the school's own achievements," Jing said.

"What we can bring to our students is the judgment of our daily work. And Dehong implants the same philosophy that children come first."
