Introduction

Guidepost Montessori Discovery Bay offers a distinctive early childhood education nestled in the scenic and family-oriented community of Discovery Bay North. Following the authentic Montessori Curriculum, the school provides a carefully prepared environment where children from 1.5 to 6 years old can develop independence, confidence, and a love for learning. A standout feature of this campus is its dedicated outdoor play space, which allows students to extend their exploration beyond the classroom—a rare asset in Hong Kong. The program is delivered through a full immersion dual-language model, with English and Mandarin integrated into daily activities to foster natural bilingual fluency. With specialized programs ranging from Transitional Toddler to the Children’s House, the school focuses on individualized development, ensuring each child progresses at their own pace within a supportive and nurturing community setting.

Admissions

Admissions
Step 1 — Research and campus visits: Start by researching Guidepost Hong Kong programs and locations. You can visit any campus for a private tour, attend events, or request a meeting with the Head of School. The admissions team can provide details on program availability, the daily schedule, and current tuition rates. Book a time that fits your schedule to obtain the most current information.

Step 2 — Submit the application: When you are ready, submit an online application form and specify your preferred program and location. If you are applying for the primary school, you should contact admissions for guidance on that option. The team will acknowledge receipt and outline the next steps in the process.

Step 3 — Space availability and offer: If space is available for your desired program and start date, the Head of School will offer your child a space. An offer is conditional on completing the enrollment steps and providing required information. You will receive a formal offer and instructions on how to proceed.
