Our "school for one" cultivates each student's sense of belonging, identity and purpose. Our personalised approach empowers holistic development and high achievement, as our graduates excel at top universities.
We foster a culture that celebrates diversity, where unique ideas, beliefs, and values are cherished, respected, and heard. Our inclusive environment empowers collaboration, innovation, and growth in a vibrant learning community.
We prioritise strong school-family relationships, actively engaging parents through feedback sessions and community events that celebrate student achievements. This supportive partnership enhances the educational experience for all.
Our century-old legacy connects generations, empowering students with the wisdom, experiences and connections of our thriving alumni network. This rich heritage instils a profound sense of community and pride.
Our extensive sports facilities cater to diverse athletic interests, empowering students to excel. This commitment to health and wellness enriches our educational experience.
As part of the English Schools Foundation(ESF), our students are supported by the largest English-medium international school organisation in Hong Kong, providing them the resources and opportunities not found outside of ESF Schools.
Students study the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (MYP) for three years. The MYP builds upon the knowledge, skills and attitudes developed in the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) and prepares students to meet future academic challenges, including IGCSE, BTEC and the IB Diploma Programme (DP).
Years 10 & 11 follow the British GCSE, IGCSE or BTEC curricula and lead to examinations and qualifications in each subject. Typically each course spans two years, in Years 10 and 11, with final exams and coursework presented in May or June of Year 11.
Students choose to either study a broad-based International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) or to focus their studies and follow a specialised vocational pathway which centres around one or more BTEC qualifications. IBDP and BTEC classes are capped at 16. These small classes enable students to grow as learners in a supportive and nurturing learning environment.

The academic highs. The supportive and nurturing teachers. The sports and games which I enjoyed even though I wasn't very good. And above all, the great, great friends who have remained my friends to this day.

Went through my IB years mostly at home and was a great challenge for me. That was the not so good part but I had lots of amazing memories as house captains and dance captain!

Dear KGV Community,
We are deeply saddened by the recent fire in Tai Po and extend our sincerest condolences to everyone impacted.
To ensure that our actions reflect our deep sympathy and to stand in solidarity with all those who are grieving, we have made the decision to cancel the Winter Festival scheduled for December 5th.
Our commitment to fundraising for fire relief remains unchanged. We will continue to work with our School Charity Committee and the PTSA to determine how we can best raise funds for the Hong Kong Red Cross, who are on the ground providing vital assistance to those impacted.
KGV is dedicated to ensuring our school remains a safe space where students and staff can express their feelings and find the support they need.
Our thoughts are with everyone affected during this difficult time.
