Changsha WES Academy (CWA) is the first English-medium International School located in the vicinity of Changsha City, Hunan Province. In order to attract more foreign investors to Changsha City and Hunan Province at large, the Changsha National Economic and Technical Development Zone Administrative Council (CETZAC) decided that it was necessary to establish a quality international school for the children of its foreign investors. Thus, CWA was established in cooperation with China-Singapore SIP International Education Services Ltd. (CSIES), and specially caters for children of expats.
One of CSIES’s main clients is Suzhou Singapore International School (SSIS). Under the effective managemenet of CSIES, SSIS has become one of the largest international schools in China and is authorized to offer the International Baccalaureate’s (IB) Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP). Through the adaption of SSIS’s experienced, successful management model, CWA aims to bring out the best in every child.
CWA opened as a Primary/Elementary School for children in Grades 1-5 on 1st September 2010 at a temporary site. From 14th February 2011, the school moved to the brand new school campus, which is on a 27,000m2 site at the corner of Dongyi and Beidou roads in Xingsha, an eastern suburb of Changsha City. At the same time, the Early Years section opened for children aged 3-5. In years to come, CWA intends to eventually become a full international school and offer classes up to Grade 12.
