Po Leung Kuk Choi Kai Yau School

The school operates on the belief that every child is unique and possesses different potential that can be nurtured through stimulation, guidance, and encouragement. It seeks to combine traditional values with modern thought, and Chinese practices with Western ones, to foster a learning community where students develop into independent, life-long learners.

The school offers a 12-year bilingual through-train curriculum. The academic pathway includes preparation for the IGCSE and the IB Diploma. The curriculum emphasizes bilingual teaching, the use of readers and novels for language instruction, and a broad range of subjects including STEM, humanities, arts, and business.

The school prepares students for international qualifications, including the IGCSE and the IB Diploma. It aims to produce graduates who are righteous, responsible, knowledgeable, and internationally-minded life-long learners capable of contributing to Hong Kong, China, and the world.

The school employs a co-tutor system where approximately 50% of lessons are taught by two teachers to better meet individual student needs. It maintains a teacher-student ratio of 1:10, with a diverse staff body comprising approximately 60% Western and 40% Chinese teachers to support its bilingual environment.

The school accepts applications for its through-train programme, with specific updates provided for Year 7 entry. Interested families can access an introductory booklet and application information via the school’s website. Financial support is available through various scholarship and fee assistance schemes for students in need.

The school operates on an annual academic cycle, with activities including assessments, study tours, and major events such as Speech Day, swimming galas, and arts exhibitions. The school maintains a calendar of activities and events, which is accessible through the school portal.
