From our Head of College

Dear DCSZ Community,

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the 2025/26 academic year at Dulwich College Suzhou. Whether you are a returning family or joining us for the very first time, I am delighted to have you as part of this wonderful learning community.

This year begins with a renewed sense of purpose and possibility. As Interim Head of College, I feel both honoured and excited to be leading our community during this important time. Our school is a place where academic excellence, wellbeing, and global citizenship are all deeply valued, it is also a place where our students are known and cared for. This is the legacy of our school and is very much the vision that will guide the work of our leadership team and staff this year.

For new families, I want to especially extend my thanks for choosing DCSZ. Transitioning into a new school or city can be a significant step, and our team is here to support you every step of the way. The DCSZ community is a welcoming one and I am sure you will feel that warmth as you get to know our school and community over the coming weeks.

To all families, thank you for the trust you place in us. Our commitment to your children’s growth remains at the heart of everything we do. This year, we look forward to strengthening our partnerships, celebrating our achievements, and continuing to grow a school that reflects the best of what a Dulwich education can offer.

I look forward to meeting you all soon.

Sarah Tielman

Interim Head of College
