From our Head of College

Dear DCSZ Community,

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the 2026/27 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.

The start of a new academic year is always filled with energy, optimism, and opportunity. As Head of College, I am proud to begin another year alongside such an exceptional community of students, families, and staff. Dulwich College Suzhou is a school where academic excellence, wellbeing, and global citizenship are deeply valued. Just as importantly, it is a place where every student is known, supported, and encouraged to thrive. These principles continue to guide our work and remain at the heart of everything we do.

For families who are new to our community, I would like to extend a particularly warm welcome and thank you for choosing DCSZ. Joining a new school or relocating to a new city can be a significant transition, and our staff and parent community are committed to helping you feel at home. I am confident that you will quickly experience the warmth, kindness, and sense of belonging that make our school such a special place.

To all families, thank you for the trust and partnership you place in us. Together, we play an important role in supporting the growth, wellbeing, and success of every child. This year, we look forward to building on our strengths, celebrating achievements across our community, and continuing to provide an outstanding educational experience that reflects the very best of a Dulwich education.

I wish you and your families a successful and rewarding year ahead, and I look forward to all that we will accomplish together.

Sarah Tielman
