Welcome to ICHK, a dynamic IB World School in the beautiful New Territories. Ours is a school which is a world away from the bustle and crowds of the city. It is characterised by an imaginative and innovative curriculum, and a caring environment which fosters and nurtures success in all our students.
As Head of School, I would like to introduce our community, and to outline the values and commitments that are closest to our hearts and which animate our vision.
At ICHK learning is everything: students, staff and parents individually and collectively learning together.
At the heart of everything we do is a dual commitment to ensuring that every student is happy and cared for; and to provide our students with the very best education we can offer, day in, day out, year on year.
Our 5+1 pastoral care model places student wellbeing at the centre of school life and underpins all learning and teaching. In an environment of safety and trust, growth, mutual understanding and shared respect, all students are enabled to flourish.
Our unique and innovative curriculum offers students a stimulating and challenging learning journey. Key to this journey is ensuring that they develop resilience and the attitudes and mindsets that will underpin ongoing enjoyment of life, performance and success. All students, not just a minority, participate in the full range of school activities – sports teams, drama productions, outdoor expeditions, service projects – which stretch and stimulate them as fully rounded young learners.
Our school has been named by the research wing of Cambridge University as one of the top 100 schools in the world for innovation. This includes recognition for the ways in which we offer students more choice, more flexibility, different work practices, and more opportunities to develop skills and attributes which are not addressed by examinations.
Ours is a school which is relentlessly future-orientated. We know that change in the world is constant and accelerating. We know that students need a new and wider set of skills if they are to meet the challenges that await: that, in an information and ideas based economy, it is attitudes and mindsets, no less than qualifications, that will underpin ongoing performance and success. And so we are proud to have created – and continually evolve – a school experience that best prepares young people for that future.
By digging deep into our website, you will come to understand more. You will discover Human Technologies, Free Learning, outdoor education and our unique pastoral model.
You will read about our approaches to sport, to positive education and about the ways in which we promote critical thinking, independent learning, collaboration, commitment and leadership. You will discover that we are a school and a community, where we never rest on our laurels, where learning is everything and everywhere.
Whether you are a parent looking for a first-class education for your child, a teacher interested in working in a stimulating and dynamic environment, or you’d like to find out more about what an international education could and should offer, we would be delighted to welcome you.

Thank you once again for doing your part to keep Edarabia the most trusted education source.
The school staff's personality attitude is a wow-factor and this school has zero or a little tolerance to bullying and nobody in the school will doing expulsion. The student population is true diversity and 300 students into the school. How grateful you were, this school want to be stoicism and hard-working students in the school. In year 10 and 11, the school has IGCSE exams and year 12 and 13 have IB exams. This is also the comfort food we need in the International Schools of Hong Kong. This is truly the No 1 school in Hong Kong.

A very good school with caring teachers, obviously my child has more confidence and more cheerful after switching to ICHK from a local school.

A space where everyone is encouraged to be themselves and to work hard to improve. The values taught at ICHK stick not just during the school years, but afterwards too. I'm grateful i got to attend this school.

After 4 years with two children attending this school we are extremely pleased with the education they are receiving. The student population is very diverse and they have zero tolerance for bullying. The administration is hands on and very progressive. Another bonus is the smaller class sizes as students receive more individual attention from the teachers.

I'm a student at this school, and I've been for 3 years. Overall this school is the most amazing thing to ever happen to me. I used to go to a large school in Denmark, this is a complete opposite as classrooms are kept small. The teachers here all care about the student's learning quite deeply, unlike my old school I feel as though I've managed to create a bond with almost everyone of my teachers.
The teachers here are great, I had to catch up on 3 years of Spanish in one year upon arrival. At the end of the year I got an A* grade for my end of year test because the teachers worked with me throughout the school year to ensure that I was at the same level as the others. Coming here I was a second language English speaker, which hindered me a bit in the beginning, now for my IGCSEs my predicted exam grade is an A* for first language English which is mostly due to the amazing teachers at this school.
This school doesn't just make good students, it makes great people
