About this school
Kiangsu & Chekiang Primary School was founded in 1953 by the Kiangsu and Chekiang Residents (HK) Association, and its International Section (KCIS) opened in September 1993. It was among the first schools in Hong Kong to combine an English-medium curriculum with a daily Mandarin lesson for children aged 3 to 11. The school belongs to the Kiangsu Chekiang & Shanghai Residents (Hong Kong) Association group of schools and describes itself as Chinese in outlook and international in spirit.
The Ching Wah Street campus in North Point now serves the youngest pupils, from Kindergarten and Reception to Primary 1, while Primary 2 to 6 moved to the Braemar Hill campus in 2002.
Key features:
- The UK Early Years Foundation Stage framework for Kindergarten and Reception, with learning through purposeful play across seven areas
- Morning and afternoon classes in both Kindergarten and Reception
- A modified English National Curriculum from Primary 1, with daily Mandarin taught by qualified Mandarin-speaking teachers
- Weekly library visits, music lessons and use of the school hall for physical activity
Parents receive progress reports twice a year and meet teachers regularly.
