Korean International School (English Section) follows the National Curriculum for England, providing a structured yet adaptable British-style education from Reception to Year 13. In the Primary years (Reception to Year 6), students study a broad curriculum integrating English, Mathematics, Science, and Humanities, with elements of the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) to promote thematic and inquiry-based learning. The Lower Secondary stage (Years 7–9) builds on this foundation through Cambridge and UK National Curriculum frameworks, concluding with Cambridge Checkpoint assessments at the end of Year 9. In Upper Secondary (Years 10–11), students prepare for the Cambridge IGCSE examinations across a wide range of subjects. The Sixth Form (Years 12–13) offers pathways leading to Cambridge AS and A Levels or Pearson BTEC qualifications in areas such as Performing Arts and Creative Media. Alongside mainstream programmes, the school’s Springboard SEN Programme provides tailored support for students with mild to moderate learning needs.
Korean International School’s International Section offers a UK pathway from Reception to Year 13 on Hong Kong Island in Sai Wan Ho, beside the Sai Wan Ho Pier. The curriculum is British, combining Cambridge programmes in primary and lower secondary with Cambridge IGCSE in upper secondary; post-16 options include A-Levels (AQA/Cambridge) and Pearson BTEC. Facilities include a swimming pool, tennis courts, basketball court, science labs, library and more. The school runs a compulsory 1-to-1 device program from Year 5 upward to integrate digital learning. Language provision spans Chinese (multiple pathways), Spanish and Korean. A distinctive feature is the Springboard SEN Programme, a dedicated division for neurodiverse learners, alongside mainstream learning support that keeps students in a standard 1-to-25 classroom environment. Co-curricular partnerships bring in PSG Football Academy, Clubsmash Badminton, Morlotti Tennis and Berlitz for languages, and daily school buses serve the wider city.
