BASIS International School Wuhan

BASIS International & Bilingual School Wuhan is located in Hongshan District of Wuhan (listed as No. 25–27 Jiataohe Road in public listings), an established education and residential area of the city near central Wuhan landmarks. The school is in the provincial capital of Hubei, with typical city transport links to the rest of Wuhan and Tianhe International Airport; check local maps for exact travel times from neighbourhoods.

The school opened in fall 2023 serving Early Childhood (Pre‑K) and primary/middle year groups and launched with Grades Pre‑K through Grade 9; it is planned to expand to a full Pre‑K–Grade 12 (ages 3–18). Admissions and year‑group availability may change as the campus grows, so check current intake with the school.

BASIS Wuhan is a mixed (co‑educational), independent international school and part of the BASIS International & Bilingual Schools network. The campus includes boarding/dormitory facilities: published listings note dorms are provided for students from Grade 5 upward.

The school uses a co‑teaching model in Early Years and Primary where a Subject Expert Teacher (SET) works alongside a Learning Enhancement Teacher (LET); LETs focus on differentiation, in‑class support and language acquisition, and the network also describes dedicated ELL support. For specific Individual Education Plan (IEP) or specialist SEN provisions and capacity, contact the school's admissions or student support team as policies and resourcing are handled at campus level.

BASIS Wuhan is part of the BASIS International Schools network (a network of BASIS Curriculum schools operating internationally) rather than being affiliated to a particular national government or education authority.

The school's public materials list it as an independent international school and do not show any religious affiliation. If a faith‑based programme is important to your family, confirm directly with the school.

There are references to school‑provided lunches and a programme of after‑school activities (ASAs) in published school profiles, but explicit daily start/end times and the exact break/lunch schedule are not publicly listed on the school pages I checked. For precise school‑day times, staggered starts (if any), and childcare/aftercare options, contact the admissions office or request the current parent handbook or prospectus.

Public information indicates BASIS Wuhan offers a school bus service and provides on‑campus lunches; however, specific route maps, pick‑up points, providers, costs and booking arrangements are not published in the sources checked. If you need bus service (or details about boarding transport and fees), ask the admissions team for current routes, schedules and safety procedures.

BASIS International School Wuhan delivers the BASIS network curriculum from early years through secondary, with primary instruction in English.
The school opened in fall 2023 and currently serves Pre‑K through Grade 9, with plans to expand to a full Pre‑K–Grade 12 campus.
In Upper School students follow an American-style Advanced Placement (AP) pathway, taking AP courses and exams as their high‑school qualification.
The programme covers a full liberal‑arts scope—core English, maths and sciences; world languages; arts; PE; science labs; and a range of co‑curricular activities—while using MAP and other assessments to track student growth.
BASIS Wuhan is listed as accredited by Cognia.

BASIS schools in China run scholarship and merit programmes at some campuses. Public reporting and local school announcements indicate BASIS China has offered multi‑year merit scholarships for upper school students at certain campuses and that BASIS campuses have reported substantial scholarship awards to graduating classes. A postings summary I located specifically references four‑year upper‑school scholarship packages that included BASIS Wuhan in the list of campuses covered by the programme (amounts and terms vary by campus and year). Scholarship availability, eligibility criteria, application timing and whether the award covers tuition only (or tuition plus boarding and other fees) differ by campus and by intake year—some announcements specified tuition coverage for multiple years while other awards excluded ancillary fees. For current scholarship opportunities and how to apply, ask the admissions office what merit or need‑based awards are open for the intake year you're applying for and request the written criteria and application deadlines; contact admissions at admissions‑bibwh@basischina.com or by phone +86 27 8885 0888 for the most current details.

I did not find a public, formal waitlist policy published on the school's own website. That said, public school listings for BASIS Wuhan note that entry includes assessments and places are subject to availability; in practice most international schools in China place qualified applicants on a waiting list when a grade is full and then contact families as spaces open. If a waiting list exists at BASIS Wuhan you should ask: (a) whether an application must be complete (documents + application fee) to be placed on the list, (b) how the school orders the list (date of completed application, sibling priority, staff children, etc.), and (c) how long the school will keep your child on the list and what you must do to keep the application active. For a definitive answer and your child's current position (if you've applied), contact admissions directly at admissions‑bibwh@basischina.com or +86 27 8885 0888.
