History

By March 2014, over 500 students applied to attend the school and over 1,000 people of various nationalities applied for teaching positions. [3]

Circa 2016, the school had plans to charge a $20,000 HKD fee per student per month, but plans were shelved after they protested during a meeting. [4] As of 2017, the school had plans to open a new campus at the Tin Wan Shopping Centre, but it received opposition from area politicians. [5]

In 2021, the school announced its new secondary campus located in Kwun Tong (Formerly the campus of Delia School of Canada (East Kowloon)). With the government approval, the school has opened for the 2021–22 academic year and will progress to future academic years. [6] [7]

Campuses

There are three Nord Anglia campuses in Hong Kong. [8]

Facilities

Throughout free periods, students from all year groups may access an array of facilities which include the cafeteria, sports hall and a library.

A swimming pool has been open for students to use during set times.
