The Cambridge Center of Zhenhai High School in Ningbo, East China's Zhejiang province, was recently named in the Hurun Education Top International Schools in China 2018 list.

The list, published by Hurun Education, the education platform of the world’s largest rich list compiler Hurun Report, selected China's top 100 international schools based on a questionnaire survey of experts in the global education field, including prestigious teachers, principals, school investors and executives from training agencies and education research institutes.

It is the second time that the list has been published, and Zhenhai High School Cambridge Center was also listed previously. It is the only school in Ningbo to have been named in the list.

The center was launched in the autumn of 2008. Students from the center can apply for all the universities in the world that provide studies in English, including prestigious institutions such as Harvard, Yale, Cambridge, and Oxford, after they have finished three years' high school studies and passed the examination given by Cambridge Assessment International Education, the world’s largest provider of international education programs and qualifications for 5 to 19 year olds.

According to the school, nine batches of graduates of the center have been admitted to famous overseas universities to date, 70 percent of whom made it to the top 50, top 10 and top five schools in the United States, United Kingdom and Canada, respectively.
