Autumn, Spring and Summer Term

Applications after the published deadlines will be considered subject to places being available, if applicants are from overseas and do not have a place in a school in Hong Kong.

There are a number of important guiding principles that influence the admissions procedures:

– The Education Bureau stipulates 30% of places can be given to local pupils with Hong Kong passports.

– Applications from pupils from Mainland China, Macau and Taiwan are considered if their parents have Hong Kong residency and the necessary supporting documentation (such pupils are then deemed to be local Hong Kong pupils) or if the pupil holds an additional overseas passport eligible for entry to Hong Kong.

– English proficiency is necessary in order to access the full range of the curriculum, and to be able to contribute positively to the School community.

– The School requires a balance between boarders and day pupils, as well as boys and girls in each year group.

– Apart from in exceptional circumstances, and at the discretion of the Head, the School does not normally accept pupils into Years 11 and 13.
