Diocesan Boys’ School (DBS) is a boys’ day and boarding school in Mong Kok, Kowloon, with roots dating to 1869. The Secondary Division offers two academic pathways: Hong Kong’s HKDSE and the IB Diploma Programme, delivered with English as the medium of instruction (Chinese is used for Chinese Language and Chinese History). DBS highlights extensive co-curricular life, including Inter-School Sports and major music events such as Homecoming and other concerts. The school publishes transparent, grade-by-grade fees (local and non-local) and installment details for IB and HKDSE years. Boarding information and application notices are provided on the school website. Recent school reports describe student numbers and outline community-service initiatives. Families can find contact details, gate hours, and calendars online, as well as an IB site confirming the programme and noting AFEC “Athlete-Friendly Education Centre” accreditation.
