DCB 5 Winners of International Pioneering Spirit Grant

Being the first British independent school to establish a campus overseas, the pioneering spirit has long characterised the Dulwich College group, as demonstrated by continuous innovation in education. 

The Pioneering Spirit Grant aims to support this forward-thinking, can-do attitude. It is an entrepreneurial competition with financial reward for projects that make a positive impact to the school and/or the wider community. This year, 32 applications were received across the Dulwich group; 10 were selected for funding from the amount of 300,000 RMB. DCB is proud to announce that five of our student projects were winners of this prestigious grant.
