Since its foundation Wellington College China has established schools and kindergartens in Tianjin, Shanghai and Hangzhou to provide education for children aged three to eighteen, and is recognised as one of the most influential international education groups in China and beyond.
We interact this month with Peter Randall, Director of Marketing and Admissions of Wellington College International Tianjin, and congratulate him for the recent celebration of the 10th anniversary of Wellington College China, and ask him about the most remarkable memories of these past 10 years.
Wellington College is one of the most highly regarded schools in the United Kingdom and also one of its greatest educational institutions, providing pioneering, innovative and transforming education for girls and boys. This vibrant and popular co-educational day and boarding school has reached new heights in today's rapidly changing and interconnected world.
In 2013, Schlote Group opened their first production site outside Europe in Tianjin, a modern and innovative production site for transmission components. Schlote Automotive Parts (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. currently employs almost 300 people, and has several important, such as BMW, Volkswagen and ZF AG. On 3rd of September, 2019, was successfully held the opening ceremony of Phase II & R&D Centre, and Business Tianjin Magazine was honoured to interview Mr Jürgen Schlote, CEO of Schlote Group, on the topic of Schlote Group’s development strategy in China.
External pressures are mounting against the Chinese economy. Those are mainly represented by the trade war and global growth slowdown. Future growth in the Chinese economy will depend on how much the economy can move from being exports-driven to self-reliant. The government is trying to stem the decline.
