I'm currently searching for primary schools for my son in Hong Kong. But because of the horrible pandemic situation this year, it becomes extremely inconvenient to visit school and make the decision. I've only visited 4 schools lately, which are Wycombe Abbey School, Kellett international school, Shrewsburry international school, and Malvern College Hong Kong.

It's been struggle to pick the right one for my son, but I prefer Wycombe Abbey School for now because the school tour they gave me is pretty professional and comprehensive. Please suggest some ideas; is choosing the Wycombe Abbey School is a wise choice or other schools are better?

Thanks a lot!

Which one is the Wycombe Abbey School's official website? www.was.edu.hk or www.wycombeabbey.com ?

Hi @VICLAUYIYOU, choosing the best school can be a hard decision. I hope someone with personal insight can help advise on Wycombe Abbey School or the others you mentioned. Are you interested in a particular curriculum/language of instruction? You may also want to consider the location and find a school close to where you live. Have you already found accommodation in Hong Kong? It's also worth asking about the services on offer, for example a bus service that your son could access, as well as additional resources and facilities.

The website seems to be the first one (was.edu.hk) as its location is Hong Kong; the other school is in the UK.

Are you still open to other schools? If so, I'd also recommend that you read the Expat Arrivals list of international schools in Hong Kong as it gives comprehensive info on the curriculums, age ranges and background info to the schools.

Hope this helps?
