Partnerships

Our three founding partners set up ICHK Secondary nine years ago to provide a pathway for students from ICHK Hong Lok Yuen, Japanese International School and Kingston International School. The goal was to develop a school that matched their own philosophies of education – one that would be student-centred and community minded, where children would feel cared for and could flourish in a nurturing environment.

The educational vision at all the schools is still governed by exactly the same principals and values. Our commitment is to small, community schools that nurture and inspire students to achieve both academically and creatively.

Staff work closely together in a spirit of openness to provide a strong through-train pathway, and ensure that students are well supported throughout the different stages of their education.

ICHK Hong Lok Yuen

ICHK Hong Lok Yuen and ICHK Secondary share a commitment to providing an holistic education for each and every one of our students. This strong commitment to ensuring that our learning communities deliver excellent academic progress and inculcate a deep sense of well-being, purpose and joy in students permeates both schools. It is a pleasure to see the enthusiasm for learning that students at ICHK demonstrate and the commitment that the staff have to nurturing this enthusiasm. I look forward to our strong partnership flourishing as we continue to deliver an exceptional education to students of all ages.

Japanese International School

JIS is delighted to have been one of the founding members of the partnership that established ICHK. As a primary school only facility, the school was keen to develop a positive alternative for secondary schooling to be offered to the JIS community.

The heart and soul of ICHK builds on what we set as our mission and vision for JIS. We have worked hard to ensure that our strong community values are developed and extended by ICHK.

Our school community appreciates this shared vision and as ICHK continues to develop its positive academic status alongside these values we look forward to many more significant years of development and partnership.

Kingston International School

ICHK is a dynamic school that is able to cater to the individual needs of its students. The teachers are passionate about education and dedicate themselves to helping their students reach their full potential. Within the school, caring and positive relationships are fostered between all staff and students, leading to an encouraging and progressive school atmosphere.

The wonderful natural environment that the school is located in is fully taken advantage of through a range of outdoor activities over the school year.  I have found during my visits to ICHK that there is a very strong school ethos demonstrated by both the students and staff, which in turn has a positive effect on the teaching and learning that occurs. I am very happy to be working in partnership with ICHK to ensure quality secondary school education for Kingston students.
