FAQs

All families making an application for Shrewsbury International School Hong Kong will be invited to attend a school meeting as soon as all relevant application documentation has been submitted and reviewed. In addition to assessing current academic and linguistic attainment, our procedures are also designed to assess the ability of each child to adapt to and thrive in our ambitious learning environment. Meetings are made up of two distinct parts:

The Student Meeting
The nature of the meeting will depend upon the age of your child. For applications to enter Year 3 and above, children will be asked to complete a series of adaptive online assessments and provide a sample of writing in English – the process lasts approximately 90 minutes. Younger students will be observed at play and while their basic skills are explored.

The Parent Meeting
This meeting allows for a transparent discussion about the expectations of each family and services available to them upon enrolment. The process lasts for approximately 20 minutes.
