On August 11, Bitexco Group and The Dwight Schools formed a partnership to establish Dwight School Hanoi – an international school that offers preschool to grade 12 in The Manor Central Park – aiming to enhance the quality of education for future generations in Vietnam.

The Dwight Schools are a leading global network of International Baccalaureate (IB) World Schools. Dwight School Hanoi will synergise Dwight’s 150-year legacy of academic excellence – pioneering in the IB – to carry out the most advanced co-education programme from preschool to twelfth grade.

Dwight School Hanoi will be situated on a 35,000-square-metre campus and located in the prime location of The Manor Central Park – a premier high-class urban area in central Hanoi.

The school campus boasts state-of-the-art architecture designed by world-leading architect Carlos Zapata. In Vietnam, Zapata is known as the designer of Bitexco Financial Tower – one of 25 symbolic towers around the world – and the JW Marriott Hotel.

Bitexco Group chairman Vu Quang Hoi said that he had been working to identify the right education partner to create the best educational environment for Hanoi in particular and for Vietnam in general.

He stated, “I want to bring to Vietnam a school that offers preschool to high school with the most advanced facilities and best programmes. I also want this school to be the cradle of outstanding leaders, scientists, and managers who will become the future of the country and bring Vietnam further on to the world map.”

Representative of The Dwight Schools, chancellor Stephen Spahn, appreciates having Hoi as Bitexco Group’s companion. All Dwight Schools are dedicated to igniting the spark of genius in every child. This mission rests on the three pillars of personalised learning, community, and a global vision.

“As a member of The Dwight Schools global network, students in Hanoi will enjoy numerous cross-campus curricular and creative collaborations with their peers around the world, have the opportunity to spend a trimester or year on any Dwight campus, and the ability to transfer seamlessly to any Dwight School should their family relocate,” said Spahn.

Founded in New York in 1872, Dwight was the first school in the Americas to offer the comprehensive IB continuum curriculum from preschool to Grade 12. Dwight’s global network of IB Schools has campuses in New York, London, Seoul, Shanghai, Dubai, and in the cloud – Dwight Global Online School extends a Dwight education to students everywhere.

Graduates can attend leading colleges and universities in the United States, including Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT, Stanford, Dartmouth, NYU, Columbia, Cornell, and the University of Pennsylvania, among many others, as well as other leading higher-learning institutions globally.

Meanwhile, Bitexco strategically invests in education with the vision to foster the future generations of Vietnam and the world while creating a more prosperous and sustainable community. This includes educating and equipping the skills of heart, vision, and intelligence for the future leaders of the country.

Bitexco Group and Dwight hope to bring to Vietnam a leading international education model that encourages the strong growth of Vietnam’s economy and culture.
