Sherborne Schools Worldwide signs agreement with Livingston Capital & Partners

We are pleased to announce that Sherborne Schools Worldwide (SSW), a joint venture between Sherborne Girls and Sherborne School, has reached an agreement with Livingston Capital & Partners (LCP) to set up a school in Wuhan, China. 

The project will initially consist of a kindergarten in Wuhan and at a later stage 3-18 years schools throughout different provinces in China. The venture between SSW and its Chinese partners, Livingston Capital & Partners, was celebrated at a signing ceremony in Sherborne on Friday 4 October.

Leo Hon, CEO of Livingston Capital & Partners commented on the signing, “We at Livingston Capital are delighted to have this opportunity to partner with Sherborne Schools Worldwide (which brings together two of the leading educational institutions in the UK) in order to bring the best of British education to Mainland China. It is our goal to implement the Confucian philosophy to our curriculum, nurturing our students from a young age to be life-long learners. We hope that through this formidable partnership we can work together to provide a top-quality education to the children of China, and nurture the next generation of leaders and socially responsible citizens. We look forward to being a great ambassador for Sherborne in the East.”

Dr Ruth Sullivan, Headmistress of Sherborne Girls and Dr Dominic Luckett, Headmaster of Sherborne School, added, “We are delighted that through our venture with Livingston Capital & Partners, we can combine the educational philosophy and heritage of the Sherborne Schools with the experience of the Livingston Capital & Partners team to deliver the best of British education in China.
