Haileybury International School Tianjin, (known internally as HIST,) is a Chinese educational institution operated by Haileybury College (Melbourne).[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] The school is the first sister school of Haileybury College in Wuqing, China outside Beijing.[8]

Overview

The school was established in 2013 as the first international campus by Haileybury College.[9] The majority of students are Chinese locals and exchange students from Melbourne, with an annual capacity of 1,200 students.[10] There are approximately 85 teachers at the school including 30 full-time expatriate teachers and 55 full-time bilingual teachers of Chinese nationality, 14 of whom hold degrees from universities outside of China. Thirty-six of the teachers hold master's and doctoral degrees. The student-to-teacher ratio is usually around 8:1.[11]

Controversy

Two teachers formerly employed by Haileybury College filed a lawsuit against the school in 2016 for various claims, including assault and deception of a VCE auditor.[12]
