Both the Chinese and Foreign Principals, and the leadership team of Sedbergh School are highly experienced in education and teaching management. Leading an excellent international faculty team, they provide students with a quality education that draws on the strengths of Chinese and foreign education systems.
In such an environment where Chinese and Western teachers complement each other, students will develop an ardent love for Chinese culture, and perceive the charm of diverse cultures and gain a broad international perspective.
