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.

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!

A Timeless Homecoming: Welcome Back, Michael A. Ross! We were thrilled and honored to welcome alumnus Michael Ross back to KGV! This momentous visit marks the first time Michael has set foot on the KGV campus since 1979. Walking through the iconic Peel Block and across the grounds, Michael reconnected with vivid memories from his student days—including his infamous “long hair revolution” against school dress codes! During his time at KGV, Michael carved out an extraordinary career in the entertainment industry. During his early years in Hong Kong, he worked as an actor, musician, and voice actor, lending his voice to classic East Asian cinema—from Bruce Lee action films to iconic Godzilla movies. He later moved to Los Angeles, building a distinguished career as a successful writer and producer. It was an absolute privilege to host Michael, hear his unforgettable stories, and show him how the KGV community continues to thrive. Once a KGVer, always a KGVer! #KGVAlumni #KGV #HongKong #AlumniSpotlight #Homecoming
