What Dulwich International High School Programme Hengqin does

Dulwich International High School Programme Hengqin (DHHQ) is a private international high school located in Hengqin, Zhuhai, Guangdong Province, China, within the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone. Established in 2010 and rebranded from its former name "Dulwich International High School Zhuhai," it became in 2021 the first officially approved Sino-Foreign Cooperative Education Programme at the Hengqin cooperation zone, with Hengqin Huafa Yung Wing High School serving as its Chinese partner. The school operates under the Dulwich College International family of schools and Education in Motion (EiM) and serves students aged 14-18 across three cohorts: international students, Chinese mainland students, and students from Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan.

The school's core products are the Pre-A Level Programme (Years 10-11 foundation curriculum), the two-year A Level Programme (Years 12-13), a residential Boarding Programme with on-campus accommodation, and a Holistic Curriculum of extracurricular activities spanning visual and performing arts, sports, STEM, Mandarin, sustainability, leadership, and wellbeing. Academically, the school delivers the Cambridge International curriculum and is accredited as an assessment centre for three UK exam boards: CAIE, Edexcel, and AQA. University and careers counselling is positioned as a differentiator, with graduate placements cited at institutions including Cambridge, Oxford, MIT, Princeton, Stanford, Imperial College London, the University of Hong Kong, Berklee College of Music, and the University of the Arts London.

DHHQ generates revenue through recurring annual tuition fees billed per academic year for the A Level and Pre-A Level programmes, supplemented by boarding fees; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is available only through an official tuition document. Its go-to-market is event-driven and sales-led: prospective families engage through Open Days, in-person and virtual campus tours, and a direct admissions funnel managed by an in-house team reachable by phone (+86 0756 8693133) and email, with an AI assistant on the website handling inquiries at the top of the funnel. Distribution is entirely direct, and the school markets to its three student segments through the Dulwich/EiM network and the broader Dulwich College International brand. The entity is operated by Dulwich College Management International Limited, with headquarters in Hengqin, China, and 49 reported employees.
