Education in Shanghai
Understanding the local education landscape
Shanghai is one of Asia's premier international education cities, with 18 IB World Schools serving a large and diverse community of expatriate and internationally-mobile Chinese families. Leading institutions include the Western International School of Shanghai (WISS — China's only full IB continuum school), Shanghai Community International School (SCIS, 1996, three campuses across Puxi and Pudong), Shanghai American School (founded 1912, China's oldest international school), and Wellington College International Shanghai.
Shanghai's international school community is split between Pudong (the modern eastern district with villa compounds, suburban campuses, and family-oriented communities in Jinqiao and nearby areas) and Puxi (the historic western side, with the city's commercial and cultural heart). Annual tuition at top Shanghai international schools exceeds USD 30,000 — among the highest in Asia — reflecting both the quality and the competitive nature of the market.
Shanghai IB students often face intense academic pressure, particularly in STEM subjects, and frequently seek support bridging the gap between Chinese educational traditions (exam-heavy, procedural) and the IB's emphasis on critical thinking, evaluation, and extended writing. ++tutors provides certified IB examiners who help students develop these skills alongside their content knowledge.
