At ICHK learning is everything: students, staff and parents individually and collectively learning together. At the heart of everything we do is a dual commitment to ensuring that every student is happy and cared for; and to provide our students with the very best education we can offer, day in, day out, year on year. Our 5+1 pastoral care model places student wellbeing at the centre of school life and underpins all learning and teaching. In an environment of safety and trust, growth, mutual understanding and shared respect, all students are enabled to flourish. Our unique and innovative curriculum offers students a stimulating and challenging learning journey. Key to this journey is ensuring that they develop resilience and the attitudes and mindsets that will underpin ongoing enjoyment of life, performance and success. All students, not just a minority, participate in the full range of school activities – sports teams, drama productions, outdoor expeditions, service projects – which stretch and stimulate them as fully rounded young learners. Our students are encouraged to be thoughtful, to care for others, to understand the importance of serving the community and how, through their actions, they can make a difference. We help students develop international-mindedness through an exploration of different perspectives related to local and global issues, guided by our definition of global citizenship: Global citizenship commits to an informed recognition that human beings share a common humanity that both underlies and transcends other aspects of their identity; that the fate of all humans is tied to the state of the planet beyond as well as within geographical or national borders; and that, once considerations of the ultimate sustainability of lifestyles are confirmed, the quality of human life in general is improved through a compassionate understanding of cultures, actively promoting inclusion, and advocacy for social justice and equity. Our guiding statements are informed by four strategic directions: Thriving Students, Best Possible Teacher, Environment for Sustainable Living and Learning, and Community and Partnership.
For over 25 years FOCUS has been a trusted resource for Hong Kong parents, educators and medical professionals seeking to learn how to better support the academic and social lives of children with mainstream learning differences. FOCUS aims to improve educational and life outcomes of children with AD/HD and SpLD by expanding understanding and raising awareness of what it means to have a mind that learns differently
Our mission is is to improve the education of mainstream students who are challenged by Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) by providing accurate evidence-based information, practical strategies and support to parents and professionals in education and healthcare and by improving understanding of how learning differences impact youth both emotionally and academically.
