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.
