与UWC创始学校共同书写全球教育新篇章
世界联合学院（United World Colleges，简称UWC）是当今世界独具一格的全球性教育组织。UWC旨在通过教育，联合不同的国家、民族和文化，从而促进世界和平与可持续发展。
自1962年创立以来，世界联合学院（UWC）便以其独特的学术教育和多元文化的交融，致力于培养具备全球视野与社会责任感的未来领袖。如今，UWC已在全球布局跨越四大洲的18所院校，其影响力跨越国界，深远而广泛。每一所UWC院校依据其地理位置、当地文化及创校初衷，在秉承UWC教育理念的前提下各具独特性，为学生提供了丰富的学习和成长机会。

作为世界上第一所UWC，英国UWC大西洋学院不仅是UWC运动的创始学院，更是其教育理念的实践先驱。英国UWC大西洋学院也是英国历史上第一所IB学校。学院于1968年共同开发了国际文凭课程（IB），如今这一课程在全球超过40,000所学校中教授，学生超过百万。
随着IB课程的发展，UWC与IBO长期保持着密切的合作关系，共同制定创新课程并影响全球教育标准。系统转型课程（Systems Transformation Pathway）是由英国UWC大西洋学院与IBO联合开发的创新型教育途径，如今正在学院试行。通过新课程和新的学习方式变革教育，英国UWC大西洋学院培养学生们重新构想体系和推动变革的技能，助力培养解决全球问题的创新型人才。
在日益复杂的全球化环境中，教育在弥合分裂、增进跨文化理解与促进世界和平方面的贡献愈发关键，UWC独特教育理念的价值日益凸显。UWC社区汇聚了独特而富有同情心的卓越领导者，引导他们的精力、热情、声音和观点，他们将学习应对如今错综复杂的挑战、矛盾与冲突，致力于提供解决方案，并努力创造积极而持久的影响。
“
当我思考教育的不同目的及其对社会的影响时，对我来说没有什么比UWC更引人注目和更紧迫的了。

独树一帜的UWC全球社区以各种形式紧密团结，通过年轻人构建和平与塑造可持续发展的未来。18所UWC院校建构的国际体系与超过60,000人的全球校友网络，赋予了UWC强大的全球响应能力。全球各校区之间资源共享与优势互补，进一步增强了UWC的国际影响力。校际的交流合作不仅展现了UWC全球社区的凝聚力，更凸显了UWC运动深刻的变革力量。
回望历史，中国学生与世界联合学院的结缘可以追溯至1973年。周恩来总理首倡15名中国学生前往英国UWC大西洋学院深造，这是新中国成立后第一批出国留学的中国学生。如今，CWA世华学校与英国UWC大西洋学院的最新战略合作无疑具有突破性意义，这不仅是对过往深厚情谊的延续，更是对中英教育合作深度与广度的全新拓展，体现出教育在促进国际理解与合作的重要桥梁作用。

在AI时代，IB教育的意义愈发凸显。它着重培养学生的批判性思维、国际视野与跨学科能力，契合时代需求，能有效应对未来挑战。IB课程不仅仅停留在学术层面，更强调培养学生解决复杂问题的能力，帮助他们在快速变化的社会中始终保持竞争力。

The Power of Education Across
Borders and Cultures
Writing a New Chapter in Global Education
with UWC Founding Schools
United World Colleges (UWC) is a unique global education organization that makes education a force to unite people, nations and cultures from all over the world for a peace and sustainable future.
Since its founding in 1962, United World Colleges (UWC) has been dedicated to nurturing future leaders with global perspectives and a sense of social responsibility through its unique combination of academics and multicultural integration. Today, UWC has 18 schools and colleges on 4 continents across the globe, with a far-reaching impact that transcends national boundaries. Each UWC college is unique with its own distinct character based on region, local culture, and founding principles, while remaining faithful to UWC mission and values, offering students a wealth of opportunities for learning and growth.
UWC Atlantic College is based at St. Donats Castle, south Wales, in a 12th century castle set in 122 acres of woodland and farmland, with its own valley and seafront. Students from more than 150 countries and areas study and live together here at UWC Atlantic. The college offers the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme as formal curriculum, while also emphasising the importance of experiential learning, community service and outdoor activities.
As the very first college in the UWC system, UWC Atlantic College is not only the piorneer college of the UWC movement, but also the piorneer of the UWC ethos. It is also the first IB school in British history. The college co-created the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme in 1968, which is now taught in over 40,000 schools worldwide with more than a million students enrolled.
With the development of the IB, UWC has maintained a close and long-standing partnership with the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO), jointly developing innovative curricula and influencing global education standards. The Systems Transformation Pathway, designed in partnership with the International Baccalaureate, is an innovative educational approach currently being piloted at UWC Atlantic. Through new curricula and transformative learning experiences, UWC Atlantic College equips students with the skills to re-imagine the systems and drive change, nurturing innovative thinkers capable of addressing global challenges.
In the increasingly complex and fractured global environment, the role of education in bridging divides, fostering cross-cultural understanding, and promoting world peace has become more crucial than ever. The UWC ethos is increasingly valued in this context. The UWC community brings together unique and compassionate leaders to channel their energy, passion, voices, and perspectives to help deliver solutions and create a positive and lasting impact. These leaders learn to navigate today's complex challenges, contradictions, and conflicts, and are committed to providing solutions and making a difference.
When I think about the varying purposes of education and the impact it can have on society, none is more compelling and pressing for me than that of UWC.
—— Naheed Bardai, Principal of UWC Atlantic
The unique UWC global community is closely united in various forms, building peace and shaping a sustainable future through the young generation. The international network of 18 UWC schools, together with a global alumni community of over 60,000, endows UWC with a strong global response capability. Resource sharing and complementary strengths among campuses worldwide further enhance UWC's international influence. Inter-school cooperation and exchange not only demonstrate the cohesion of the UWC global community but also highlight the profound transformative power of the UWC movement.
Looking back at history, the connection between Chinese students and the United World Colleges (UWC) can be traced back to 1973, when Premier Zhou Enlai first sent 15 Chinese students to UWC Atlantic College in the UK for further studies. These students were the first group of Chinese students to study abroad after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Today, the latest strategic cooperation between CWA and UWC Atlantic College undoubtedly has groundbreaking significance. It is not only a continuation of the long-standing friendship but also a new expansion of the depth and breadth of Sino-British educational cooperation, reflecting the significance of education as a bridge for international understanding and cooperation.
As part of the UWC family, our cooperation with China has a long and storied history. The joining of CWA students has brought new vitality to our campus culture and offered us fresh perspectives. Our International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme and Systems Transformation Pathway aim to cultivate students' global vision and awareness of sustainable development, encouraging them to confront global challenges and drive change in global systems. I look forward to welcoming more students from CWA to join us and write a new chapter in global education."

Pioneering Diverse Pathways
Empowering Student Growth with
High-Quality Resources at CWA
CWA is an international school founded in 2019 by the team behind UWC Changshu China, specifically catering to Chinese students. CWA aims to broaden the international horizons of Chinese students and provide them with a high-quality international education platform rooted in Chinese culture, as well as the influence of the UWC+ network. CWA was certified for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) in its inaugural year, becoming an IB World School.
CWA has always been dedicated to empowering student growth through high-quality resources. As a sister school to UWC Changshu, it maintains a close relationship with UWC, receiving strong support from UWC Changshu in various aspects, including curriculum philosophy, teaching and research, faculty training, extracurricular activities, and college counseling.
CWA aims to cultivate future change-makers who are deeply rooted in Chinese culture, possess both a humanistic spirit and a scientific mindset, and are dedicated to exploring and addressing issues related to human sustainability future. This strategic cooperation between CWA and UWC Atlantic College further strengthens the bond between the two institutions, demonstrating their mutual commitment and long-term vision in nurturing future talents.
Every year, CWA will provide 20 outstanding students at most with the opportunity to study at UWC Atlantic College. This means that more CWA students, driven by their dreams, will embark on educational journeys at the global network of 18 UWC schools, including UWC Changshu and UWC Atlantic, stepping onto a broader global stage.
This strategic cooperation opens up more diverse educational pathways for CWA students, allowing them to deeply share high-quality resources. By immersing themselves in a multicultural environment and the UWC system, students will grow through real-life experiences, learn to understand and respect differences, enhance their cross-cultural communication and adaptability skills, and engage in collaborative exploration. In the tide of globalization, they will become outstanding future change-makers, contributing Chinese strength to the creation of a better world.

CWA in conjunction with
UWC Atlantic College:
Cultivating Future Changemakers Together
At the signing ceremony, Mr. Wang Jiapeng, Founder and Chairman of the Board of Directors of UWC Changshu and CWA said,
This cooperation will be carried out in two dimensions. On the one hand, CWA joins hands with UWC Atlantic College in the UK to provide students with a solid academic and language foundation through CWA’s articulation program, which will help them successfully enter the door of UWC. On the other hand, we will also actively expand our cooperation with other UWC campuses to provide more diversified international choices for our students."
01
The Unique FP Bridge Program that
Incorporates the Best of the IB
Paving the Way to UWC Excellence for Students
In the era of AI, the significance of IB education has become increasingly prominent. It focuses on developing students' critical thinking, international perspective, and interdisciplinary skills, which align with the needs of the times and can effectively respond to the challenges of the future. The IB program does not only stop at the academic level but also emphasizes the development of students' ability to solve complex problems, which will help them to stay competitive in a fast-changing society.
The IB teaching philosophy of CWA is highly compatible with that of UWC Atlantic College, and both sides are committed to exploring more possibilities in education and cultivating future global change-makers. The unique FP bridge program in CWA and UWC Changshu has cultivated a group of outstanding students with global competence, and is able to send outstanding talents to 18 UWCs around the world.
In terms of curriculum, CWA offers a one-year Preparatory Program for the International Baccalaureate (FP) and a two-year International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP). The school is committed to providing an IB program that is tailored to the needs of Chinese students, with the concept of "tailor-made for local conditions". It has always been CWA's goal to develop the "Hexagonal Warriors" that the IB program aims to cultivate.
At the FP level, CWA implements individualized instruction for students. Through tiered teaching and small class sizes, an exclusive educational environment is created for each student. This instruction model not only helps students achieve academic breakthroughs but also enhances their language skills comprehensively, so that they can build a solid foundation for their future international academic path.
In its daily teaching, CWA incorporates a large number of practical and innovative elements, encouraging students to participate in interdisciplinary projects, Model United Nations, academic competitions, and other activities to hone their teamwork, self-management and critical thinking skills.
This cooperation between CWA and UWC Atlantic College is based on the results of the FP stage. In CWA’s FP stage, students have developed various core competencies through systematic learning. This not only lays a solid foundation for applying to UWC schools globally, but also provides special opportunities for applying to UWC Atlantic College. As a result, students gain access to a broader academic platform and enhanced opportunities for further development at UWC Atlantic College.
02
Injecting multicultural dynamism，
Continuously expanding the
depth and breadth of international cooperation
UWC has a far-reaching influence in the field of international education, with its 18 schools across four continents building a diverse and inclusive educational network. These schools bring together students from all over the world, with different cultural backgrounds and socioeconomic status, so that they can learn from and understand one another in a shared campus life. This environment helps them develop a global perspective and cross-cultural communication skills, ultimately empowering them to become the driving force behind world peace and sustainable development.
Following this cooperation, with more students from CWA joining the team, UWC Atlantic College will be more diverse and infused with cultural vitality. This will not only bring fresh energy into Sino-British educational exchanges, but also foster in-depth cooperation between the two countries in the areas of educational philosophies, teaching methodologies, and talent cultivation strategies.
Through the deep connection with UWC global network, CWA will help more students to show their talents and broaden their horizons in the international arena, and train them to become future change-makers with both Chinese sentiment and global vision, contributing to the diversified development of education in the world.
Concluding Remarks
The cultivation of future talents calls for collaboration, and the partnership between CWA and UWC Atlantic College is a powerful response to this call. This cooperation demonstrates a profound understanding of current trends, a sense of responsibility to the mission of our generation, and deep reflection on the cultivation of future talents. It sets an example for the education industry in collaborative development and shared vision for the future.
This partnership has created new opportunities and highlighted the power of education and the responsibility of the youth. It not only provides Chinese students with broader educational choices, enabling them to explore more possibilities and play a more prominent role on the global stage, but also offers insights for the future development of global education. It shows that by transcending cultural boundaries and breaking through mental frameworks, we can seek solutions to humanity's challenges collectively and drive transformation in the global systems as a whole. It inspires outstanding young people to tackle conflicts and challenges through technology and innovation in this new era of change, paving the way for a brighter future for all.
