Westminster High School (Acronym: WHS), founded by Madam Elizabeth Koh in 1932, is a Christian educational institution in Manila, Philippines and a Chinese school in Taiwan. Westminster High School (Philippines) has recently abolished its Chinese curriculum from kindergarten up to high school, and it has also ceased from participating in sports competitions with other Chinese schools in Metro Manila. As a result, the student population of Chinese, Taiwanese and Filipino-Chinese have gradually declined over the years.
