What are the schools in Hong Kong like?

"Hong Kong is home to some of the best international and bilingual schools in the world. The International School of Hong Kong (ISHK) is a leading international school in the city, offering a comprehensive curriculum from pre-school to secondary school. It is accredited by the Council of International Schools and the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, and offers a range of international qualifications, including the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. Another top international school in Hong Kong is the French International School, which offers a bilingual education in French and English. It is accredited by the French Ministry of Education and the Council of International Schools, and offers the French Baccalaureate and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. The German Swiss International School is another top international school in Hong Kong, offering a bilingual education in German and English. It is accredited by the German Ministry of Education and the Council of International Schools, and offers the German Abitur and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. Finally, the Chinese International School is a top bilingual school in Hong Kong, offering a bilingual education in Chinese and English. It is accredited by the Hong Kong Education Bureau and the Council of International Schools, and offers the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme," remarked one expat living in with children attending .

"Beware. I cannot recommend this school unless you are an orthodox Jew who wants your children to be cut off from the vibrancy and diversity of Hong Kong. The teachers are poorly compensated and the school prefers local hires instead of traditional recruiting. This school was the worst mistake I have made on my family's behalf and I am not alone in this sentiment. Of course this is my opinion, I encourage you to examine the school and make your own decision. Keep the inconsistent class sizes in mind as well as the teacher turnover," said one expat in Hong Kong with children at Carmel School.
