School Profile 2017-2018 The English Schools Foundation The English Schools Foundation (ESF) was founded in 1967 by the Hong Kong Government to provide a “modern liberal education” through the medium of English. The Foundation continues to expand and now educates over 12,000 students of over 50 different nationalities. There are nine primary schools for Years (grades) 1-6 and five secondary schools for Years 7-13. 95% of ESF students take up university education following their schooling in Hong Kong. ESF also has two all-through schools that offer the International Baccalaureate MYP in Years 7 to 9, and IB Diploma in Y1213.
King George V School King George V School predates the establishment of the ESF and is in fact over 100 years old. It is an international nonselective secondary school of over 1,800 students between the ages of 11 and 18. Founded in 1902, KGV School joined the ESF in 1979 and remains to-date as the largest secondary school in the Foundation, offering affordable education through the medium of English. It is open to children of all backgrounds who are residents in Hong Kong. There are no entry requirements. The school employs over 120 teaching staff, trained mainly in the U.K., Australia, Canada, U.S.A. and Hong Kong. We are ambitious in developing our fine traditions of high achievement and creativity in an engaging, enjoyable and sustainable learning environment. We aim to celebrate diversity in an inclusive and supportive international community.
Co-curriculum Students are offered many different opportunities to enhance their learning and take their experiences outside the classroom. All KGV students commit to an activity during Challenge Week. Year 8-13 can choose between local and overseas ventures. Senior students can also pursue a leadership role with younger students based locally. Students in Year 12 and 13 complete community service programmes and arrange a two-week work experience placement for themselves. The House System offers an excellent avenue for our talented athletes, musicians, debaters and artists to compete and represent their Houses. King George V School does not provide GPA or rank students.
Year 7-9 Curriculum Starting August 2017,KGV has introduced the Middle Years Programme (MYP) for Y7 which will roll out over three years. This framework will further develop the student learning experience. In many ways this will build on the work KGV is currently doing with the Middle School Curriculm (MSC) that is being followed by our current Y8-9 students. Under the MSC, students are enjoying the opportunities this brings including improving links across subject areas, skills being taught explicitly in the classroom and a live, online reporting system which is custom-made for our needs.
Year 10 and 11 Curriculum Year 10 and 11 students follow a two-year cycle of study in which they prepare for the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) or International GCSE (IGCSE) examinations. The results of these examinations are graded from A* to G. With a core of Mathematics, English Language and Literature, Double Science Award, and a Foreign Language (French, Spanish, German, Chinese), students then opt for subjects from Humanities, Performing Arts, Design & Technology and P.E.

Year 12 and 13 Curriculum Students work toward either the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma or the British Business and Technology Education Council (BTEC) Diploma (Level 3). Students have a number of courses to choose from and will select according to their future career/education aspirations. They sit examinations at the end of Year 13 and are not awarded mid-year grades. At the end of Year 13, approximately 90% of students go on to study in many parts of the world. The balance typically takes a gap year, employment or military service.
