In the fifteen years since it was founded, Pao School has grown from just a few classrooms hosted on the campus of Shanghai No 3 Girls High School to having its own three campuses today. Over these years, the school has always been committed to the continual improvement of campus design, following the guidance of Professor Anna Pao Sohmen’s design concept: "Architecture can be the ‘third teacher.” Through this philosophy, the school integrates the concept of education with campus design to provide students with a safe, comfortable and world-class learning and living environment.


Pao School is launching its interactive Virtual Tour to showcase the beautiful campus and its facilities, so those interested in the school can explore it remotely. Through the Virtual Tour, you can visit different facilities like the Primary School’s classrooms and swimming pool. At the Middle School, you can take a turn around the Infinite Music Center, which draws on Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre, and the Yue Auditorium, which integrates the essence of Chinese and Western art into its design. And, for the High School, you can enjoy stepping into spaces such as the Huang Sue Ing Memorial Library and Black Box Theatre.
