Since first opening in September 2012 at its custom-built school, Harrow Hong Kong has quickly won a reputation for its high standards and distinct educational philosophy.

With a current total of around 1,250 pupils, from Early Years (K1 and K2) all the way up to Sixth Form (Years 12 and 13), the school sets high academic expectations, but also offers an extensive extra-curricular programme to encourage involvement and develop new skills and important personal and leadership attributes. 

“We are totally committed to an all-round education offering breadth of experience and opportunity,” says the school’s Head Ann Haydon. “We want pupils to learn life skills, challenge themselves personally and academically, pursue passions and interests in a multitude of areas such as sport, music and drama, as well as make a positive contribution to the wider community.” 

As with any school, achievements in public examinations and securing university places are obvious measures of success. In that respect, Harrow Hong Kong can already point to a record of outstanding A-Level results – 67% achieved A*/A grades in 2017, with Sixth Formers going on to attend top-ranked universities around the world.

Close to 20 per cent of school leavers who’ve gone on to UK universities have won places at Oxford or Cambridge, while others went on to Ivy League colleges in the US or to other leading universities in the UK, Australia, Hong Kong, Canada and beyond. Their choice of degree subjects is diverse, ranging from economics and law to history and mathematics.
