Changsha WES Academy is an international kindergarten and elementary school located in Changsha, Hunan Province, People's Republic of China.

Changsha WES Academy (CWA) is the first English-speaking international school located in the vicinity of Changsha City.

CWA was established by the Changsha Economic and Technical Development Zone Administrative Council (CETZAC) in co-operation with China-Singapore SIP International Education Services Co. Ltd. (CSIES) and Worldwide Education Services Group Pte. Ltd. (WES) to provide an international education for the children of expatriate families living and working in the area.

CWA started classes on 1st September 2010 with just four children aged 6 to 10. On 14th February 2011 the Early Years Programme started with ten children aged 3 to 5. As the number of foreign families relocating to the Changsha area is increasing, we anticipate that the school will rapidly grow.

Curriculum

The school follows an inquiry based curriculum and is aiming to seek accreditation from the International Baccalaureate Organisation (IBO) and the Council of International Schools (CIS).

Facilities

On 14 February 2011, the school moved to its brand new, purpose-built campus. In addition to spacious classrooms, there are also specialty facilities including art rooms, a broadcasting studio, children’s play areas, computer labs, dining room, library/media centres, music rooms, sports field, sports hall, science labs, theatre, and a teaching kitchen.
