HKCA Po Leung Kuk School traces its origins to 1951, when it was established by Mr HO Iu Kwong and the Hong Kong Construction Association as the Building Contractors' Association School. The school officially commenced operation in September 1957. In 2017, Po Leung Kuk and the HKCA collaborated to transform the Building Contractors' Association School into the Kuk's first IB-PYP private school. In 2019 a donation led to the campus on Tin Hau Temple Road being named Ho Iu Kwong Campus.
