AT A GLANCE

Hong Kong Academy is an independent, nonprofit, coeducational day school for Pre-Kindgergarten through Grade 8 featuring an inquiry-based, concept-driven curriculum that provides a well-rounded, learner directed program. The school was founded in 2000 to serve the educational needs of Hong Kong’s expatriate and local communities by providing a broad, international style curriculum that incorporated the best teaching practices from around the globe. It was conceived with the guiding principle that all students have the right to a high quality education that supports and extends both their learning style and their natural strengths. The School is housed in a former secondary school building centrally located on Hong Kong Island and easily accessed by public transport.

Hong Kong Academy currently consists of the primary program (Pre-Kindergarten through Year 5), as well as the middle school program (Year 6 through Year 8), which is housed in an adjacent building within the same campus. Beginning in the 2008/9 school year, Hong Kong Academy will also include Year 9, as it begins its development of a high school program.
