International Secondary Education

UK A Levels, IB, I/GCSE

CHINESE 中文 國際中學教育

The Hong Kong education environment has undergone some significant changes that have implications for HK students preferring an international education.

When the HKCEE ends, students who are undertaking the HKDSE will no longer have an externally verified exam grade to show at the end of Form 5.  For parents wishing to enrol children in the IB (International Baccalaureate) or UK A-Levels for years 12 and 13 this is a problem as they no longer match the age groupings for UK schools and universities. In addition, as UCAS has yet to release its tariff awards for the DSE, it means that Hong Kong students may no longer fulfill matriculation requirements for UK universities. No public exam at F5 may pose problems for students wishing to undertake a future UK-based education. Possible alternatives are: ·         enrolling your child in some core IGCSE/GCSE subjects to ensure they have recognized exam scores for entrance into international schools in Hong Kong and abroad.. ·         sending your child to a UK independent school

UK A-Levels are no longer being offered by the ESF in Hong Kong. These are the most recognised qualifications for entry to UK universities. If you wish your child to complete some or a full course of A- Levels, possible alternatives are:

• enrolling your child to complete a desired number of  self study UK A-levels with ITS.

• sending your child to a UK independent school to complete a full UK A–Level course.

ITS is a registered exam centre for IGCSE/GCSE and UK A-Levels (Edexcel exam board) and a UCAS centre. 

For further information regarding the options for your child contact ITS and arrange and appointment or simply request further information.
