Having been an educator for more than 40 years, I have always dreamed of setting up an international school that respects the principles of education, stresses all-round development of students, and offers small class sizes and individualised and diverse instruction. With the founding of King's College International School, Wuxi, the dream I have cherished for decades has finally become a reality.

I hope pupils of our school will develop the following qualities:A command of foreign languages - Being able to speak a foreign language opens the door to the outside world. It is the foundation of international competitiveness. Integration of arts and science - Our pupils will combine the spirit of science and the spirit of humanism across their studies. Mental and physical harmony - Harmony is a key element in traditional Chinese culture. An individual can take responsibility only when he or she has both a healthy body and an independent mind. The development of individual interests - We encourage creative innovation, bold thinking and the development of character in our pupils.

I hope that through their academic studies and co-curricular activities, pupils at King's College International School, Wuxi are inspired to find goals that they pursue with lasting passion and deep conviction, pursuits that lead them to happy and joyful lives.

I believe in the power of dreams, and I hope that King's College International School, Wuxi can become a high-quality school oriented by cultivating students' ability, integrating Chinese and international cultures, which prepares students for the future. I believe in the power of anticipation, in our culture of encouragement and trustworthy relationship between students and teachers, through which I hope we can inspire joyful learning. I believe that enrichment leads to selectivity and selectivity leads to individuality. Building a diversified curriculum is our unalterable education philosophy. I believe that the healthy growth of children requires the joint efforts of families, schools and the larger community. Building a good home-school cooperation and community partnership is essential to our work. I believe that international schools in China should make great efforts to integrate the best of Chinese and international education to create the campus atmosphere of King's College International School, Wuxi, which is the guarantee of our school’s high quality.

Since joining Dipont Education in 2008, I have witnessed the design and development of this innovative school throughout the years. Our students today will face a complex and ever-changing world in the future. T The high degree of uncertainty makes it imperative for us as educators to consider how to cultivate transferable knowledge, skills, and competencies that our students will need in the era of artificial intelligence and information technology. As the newly appointed Executive Principal, I will lead our entire faculty and staff to adhere to the founding mission of "establishing a future-oriented internationalized school" set by school board of governance ten years ago, uphold the "inheritance and exploration" development approach set at school five-year anniversary, and focus on the educational strategy of "supporting individual growth for excellence through holistic education." We will employ an international faculty team, optimize the processes and methods of international education, strengthen the academic outcomes and educational goals of international education, enhance the experience of international education for students and parents. With unwavering confidence, we will position ourselves in Wuxi and aim at the Yangtze River Delta region to build a private school that integrates multiculturalism and is highly internationalized. As someone who has benefited from international education, studying abroad has changed my education and life, enabling me to help more students pursue their dreams of international education. Every individual's passion for a profession is rooted in their own sense of mission, and my mission is to protect this campus and ensure every child benefits from international education and ultimately fulfill their dreams for overseas studies.

Welcome to King’s College International School, Wuxi

KCIS has grown and developed enormously in recent years. We continue to offer a rich and challenging British curriculum education, supported by a dedicated team of talented educators who place the happiness, safety and personal growth of every child at the heart of all they do. Our aim is not only to prepare children for the future, but to ensure that their school years are filled with curiosity, creativity, friendship, and joy. Childhood is precious — and we believe it should be truly cherished.

We know that children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and inspired. At KCIS, we nurture a respectful and inclusive culture where every student is known, valued, and encouraged to achieve their very best — academically, socially and personally. Our classrooms are filled with energy, laughter, and high expectations. We want our learners to become confident communicators, problem-solvers, creative thinkers and compassionate global citizens.

Our strong partnership with parents plays a vital role in our success. Together, we create a learning environment that celebrates effort, achievement, and kindness in equal measure.

Whether you are considering joining our school or are already part of the KCIS community, I warmly invite you to visit us and see for yourself the energy, care and passion that define King’s College International School, Wuxi.

I would like to offer you a very warm welcome to King’s College International School, Wuxi. My name is Mike Hindle and I am extremely proud and privileged to be the Head of our wonderful school.

I have moved to China from Doha, Qatar and previously from the UK, where I have over 25 years’ experience of teaching and school leadership in a wide variety of settings. I have provided educational consultancy, school improvement advice, training and CPD to schools world-wide.

Here at KCIS we teach our students through the highly respected British Curriculum, providing a solid basis to allow your child to continue their education anywhere in the world once they leave us. We place our students at the heart of everything we do. We aim not only to prepare our children for adult life in an ever-changing world, but to ensure that their childhood is as wonderful as it can possibly be. My belief is that our children get only one chance at childhood, and as educators (and parents) we have a clear opportunity and responsibility to make that time a happy, safe and wondrous journey of discovery and learning.
