Spear’s Review

Harrow International School Hong Kong is a day and boarding school that integrates elements of educational philosophy, practice and traditions from the UK’s Harrow School, equipping international pupils in Hong Kong with the knowledge, skills and talents they need to have a positive impact on their community and the wider world.

The school follows the UK curriculum and has a reputation for strong exam results as well as impressive university destinations; leavers often attend Oxford, Cambridge and the Ivy League universities. 

Beyond the classroom, it offers an extensive extracurricular programme called Harrow Horizons, in which students engage in two ‘super curriculum’ activities a week each term and as many co-curricular activities as they like.
