Wycombe Abbey School Hong Kong (WASHK) is a leading co-educational British preparatory school in Hong Kong for children 5 to 13 years old. Drawing upon the well-established heritage and academic excellence of Wycombe Abbey School in England, WASHK offers a holistic education that prepares children for top secondary and boarding schools around the world.
WASHK offers students the best from the British and Hong Kong primary education systems as its academic curriculum is designed based on the internationally renowned National Curriculum for England, and complemented by an immersive Chinese programme. “By developing their academic prowess and their bilingualism in English and Chinese, the school ensures that students are prepared not only for the rigorous learning environment of British independent schools, but also to become the business and professional people of Asia in a decade’s time,” explains Howard Tuckett, Headmaster of WASHK.
Guided by the motto ‘Every Child Can Excel’, WASHK is committed to delivering a broad and international school education where students can flourish holistically. With a total of 14 subjects and an extra-curricular activities (ECA) programme consisting of over 50 clubs and activities, students are given ample opportunities to learn new skills and discover their own talents.
Additionally, the Secondary and Boarding School Guidance Programme is provided to all students to support their entry to top educational establishments. From exploring and selecting suitable schools, to navigating through the applications and admissions process, the School Mentoring team of experts offers tailored guidance to students and parents every step of the way.
The programme also equips students with the soft skills needed to adjust and thrive in their new school environment. “We place great emphasis on character building to strengthen qualities such as patience and resilience,” says Emily Harrison, coordinator of the Secondary and Boarding School Guidance Programme. “Hence, our students will be able to fit in by collaborating and showing consideration for their peers, as well as stand out by having the confidence to be themselves and stand by their morals.”
Through the robust and comprehensive programme, WASHK has successfully helped students receive offers from top school in the UK, such as Wycombe Abbey School UK, Rugby, Cheltenham Ladies College, Roedean, Badminton, Benenden and Malvern St James, among many others.
