British Council in China
About Company
The British Council has been working with China since 1979. We operate as the Cultural and Education Section of the British Embassy in Beijing, and as the Cultural and Education Section of the British Consulate General in Shanghai, Guangzhou and Chongqing, and our examination services in China operate as a wholly foreign-owned enterprise.
We advance world peace and prosperity by building connections, understanding and trust between people in the UK and across nations.
Drawing on the UK’s deep roots in arts and culture, education and the English language, and our network and reach in more than 100 countries around the world, we have unparalleled access to young people and opinion leaders, sparking creativity through collaboration.
We help individuals build the skills, confidence and connections to transform their lives and work with the UK to shape the world for the better. We support them to network, explore ideas, learn English, access quality education and achieve internationally recognised qualifications.
