It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Li Po Chun United World College of Hong Kong was founded in 1992 as part of the United World Colleges (UWC) movement, which brings together schools focused on international understanding and service. The College was established through the combined support of the Hong Kong SAR Government, the Li Po Chun Charitable Trust Fund, and UWC International. It is governed by an independent Board of Directors, chaired by a College Supervisor, and operates as a non-profit educational foundation. The school continues to serve students from over 80 nationalities as part of the UWC global network.
The LPCUWC community is highly residential, with students and staff living and learning together on campus. Cultural and community life is anchored in annual events such as Cultural Evening, China Week, and Project Week, which celebrate diversity and student-led service initiatives. Regular Quan Cai (IB CAS) activities also bring together local and international students through service projects, environmental work, and cultural exchange.
LPCUWC does not publicly disclose information regarding a Parent Teacher Association (PTA).
