Selected by the Hong Kong Education Bureau to open in 2018, we provide research-driven educational provision within a world-class, purpose-built facility in Tseung Kwan O. Our provision is built upon the benefits of individualized provision and collaborative learning. We believe that children have as much to learn from one another as they do from their teachers and have planned to ensure that our students are well nurtured within a broad and representative community of peers. Our classrooms and curriculum are designed to foster partnership and participation. Learning environments are flexible and neatly organized to promote clear, strategic thinking. Students will explore the ideas of others while they develop a refined understanding of their strengths through the selection of considerately designed tasks and activities. The classroom is the canvas our children bring the color. The design of a purpose-built school facility has enabled the development of a range of function-specific spaces for our students to learn within and be inspired by. Assemblies are held in the auditorium and choral lessons are delivered within the Recital Hall. This determined focus extends to the care with which we have considered the age-specific needs of our students. Our uncompromising vision continues throughout a facility that has been driven by specific expertise - none of this would be possible through facility refurbishment.

Shrewsbury School has a world-class reputation for all-around excellence. Fully co-educational, with a seven-day boarding heartbeat and an integral day community, we deliver a dynamic education that develops the abilities and enthusiasms of every individual girl and boy. School should be serious fun. Learning and enjoyment go hand in hand: in the classroom, through a vibrant co-curricular program, and in the communal life of the School. At Shrewsbury, we aim to provide the most diverse, challenging, and supportive environment in which all our children can thrive and exceed their expectations. A good education opens doors. This means getting the best possible examination results and qualifications. Academic excellence is achieved through a wide-ranging curriculum that uncovers and encourages a genuine love of learning, alongside inspirational teaching that challenges each pupil to strive for her or his personal best. However, examination certificates are just one product of education. Many skills, values, and aptitudes do not come with a piece of paper, but they are nonetheless vital for happy and purposeful living. A great education nurtures character and it lasts a lifetime. The Shrewsbury School motto gets to the heart of our vision: Intus Si Recte Ne Labora – ‘if all is right within, trouble not’. Ours is not a superficial, skin-deep education but one that seeks to develop the whole person. If our values are true, and we live by them with honesty and conviction if we look beyond the surface of things to question and champion independence of mind and if we learn deeply to lead lives of meaning, generosity, and purpose, then we will see the full fruits of a Shrewsbury education. We understand that the choice of the right senior school is as complex as it is important. With this in mind, a personal visit is the best way to form a view as to what makes Shrewsbury School so special. Shrewsbury School has a strong vision, derived from its position as a major co-educational boarding school of international reputation.
