Another one of the prestigious and extremely popular schools in our network is Harrow International School, Hong Kong.


We have built a strong relationship with this impressive institution which allows us to offer our students many advantages during the preparation and application processes.

Because we liaise regularly with the admissions board at Harrow International, we know just what they are looking for in the students who apply as well as what common mistakes make the difference between a successful application and a non-successful application.

Harrow International is a popular and aspirational school for many students. For many, it may seem like an impossible dream but with the correct guidance, it need not be limited to a dream.


What Makes Harrow International Special? Harrow International has been in Hong Kong since 2012 but its origins are steeped in royalty, history, and a rich heritage. The original school in the UK was founded in February 1572, under a Royal Charter granted by Queen Elizabeth I to a wealthy local farmer named John Lyon.

The first Harrow School in Asia, founded in 1998, was Harrow Bangkok, followed by Harrow Beijing in 2005, Harrow Hong Kong in 2012 and then Harrow Shanghai in 2016.

The Harrow family of Schools has become synonymous with academic excellence. The school offers a broad-based learning experience within a traditional framework. They also hold a high regard for teacher-pupil relationships as well as intercultural relations.

According to their website, the school’s vision is for pupils at Harrow Hong Kong to "not only achieve outstanding academic results, but also develop the motivation, skills and determination to make a positive difference to the world in which they live."
