Spear’s Review

Pupils of Hong Kong International School (HKIS)’s two campuses – in Repulse Bay and Tai Tam – receive ‘an American-style education grounded in the Christian faith’, though the school accepts students of all nationalities and faiths.

The school has six priorities for student life and learning: academic excellence, self-motivated learning, character development, Chinese culture, spirituality and contributing to society.
