SHANGHAI, May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — At the 2026 VEX Robotics World Championship, five students from Concordia International School Shanghai finished 3rd in the world in the VEX V5 Skills Challenge, marking a major milestone for Concordia’s robotics program.

Each year, only around 6% of qualified high school VEX V5 teams worldwide make it to the Worlds, the pinnacle of VEX robotics competition. The Concordia team not only qualified but placed among the global top.

Their achievement came from months of disciplined engineering. The team rebuilt, retested, coded, drove, broke parts, fixed them, and ran the cycle again. The pressure ran higher than usual because they had also won the APAC Championship just weeks before Worlds, leaving little time to reset before St. Louis. At Worlds, that work held up against some of the most experienced robotics programs in the world. For one stretch of the competition, Concordia sat at No. 1 in the world.

Beyond the leaderboard, Worlds was an opportunity to exchange ideas. In the pit aisles, Concordia students connected with teams from other schools, studying drive bases, intake systems, autonomous logic, and match strategy. They asked questions and shared their own insights.

Behind this moment is a team of dedicated educators who have steadily built and supported Concordia’s robotics program. From establishing a K–12 pathway to coaching through countless cycles of design, testing, and refinement, their work creates the conditions for students to thrive at the highest levels. This result is not just a win on the field, but a testament to the strength of the program and the people who make it possible.
