What's Good

5 notable strengths based on official data

Well-Established

Founded 1975, 51 years of experience

Over 51 years means a mature teaching system refined over decades. Staff turnover is typically lower, and the school's reputation is well-documented — making it easier for parents to find reliable reviews.

PN Class Available

Pre-Nursery class for age 2-3

Children can start a year earlier, easing their K1 transition since they will already be familiar with the environment. For working parents, this means stable childcare a year sooner. Note: PN fees are separate from the Free Scheme.

Excellent Teacher Ratio

1:8 ratio vs HK average 1:9

Each teacher looks after about 8 children, 1 fewer than average. This means more individual attention for your child's learning pace and emotional needs.
