Harrow International School Hong Kong is Hong Kong's first international boarding school, with 1,200 estimated intake its first year, of whom 440 students will be boarders. It is the third such school coming under the management of Harrow International Ltd, a private company which runs both Harrow International School Bangkok and Harrow International School Beijing, and modelled around the education that is provided by the Harrow School in north-west London.

Background
The school is one of four international schools to have benefitted from being allocated land by the Hong Kong government, the others being Kellett School, Hong Kong Academy, and Christian Alliance International School. It has been built on land formerly used as an army barracks in Tuen Mun in the New Territories. The land had been granted by the Hong Kong government in late 2008 for the nominal consideration of HK$1,000, despite having a value of HK$600 million, in its location adjacent to the Gold Coast.

Harrow International Management Services is operating the school from Harrow School in the UK. The school campus is expected to have cost approximately HK$1 billion to have been built.

Hong Kong Education Minister Michael Suen Ming-yeung said in 2009 that the Hong Kong government wanted to facilitate and promote the international school sector to underpin Hong Kong's position as a "world Asian city". There are already a number of international schools in Hong Kong.

There is demand from Hong-Kong's millionaires who have nostalgia for the old British systems, for a British-style education for their children, without having to send them too far.

The school
There are to be places for both junior and secondary school, with the secondary section including boarding places, and the whole school being mixed, unlike the London school. The junior section will start for pupils aged 2 and the secondary school ends for pupils aged 18.

The waiting-lists for admission already have been up to three years.

School-fees had been predicted to range from HK$106,600 to HK$145,000 per academic year as of 2011, though from March 2012 this had been revised upward to between HK$110,000 and HK$150,000.

It is expected that about half the places will be taken up by non-local pupils, including those children of overseas workers. The first phase's 440 boarding places will increase by 120 in its second phase.

Staff and management
The school will function under a corporate management and also governors retained by Harrow School in London.

The school's first headmaster is Mel Mrowiec who was previously deputy-head at the Harrow School in London. Curriculum is set to be based around IGCSE and A-Levels. Admission will be based on merit and there will be bursaries and scholarships for gifted applicants.

Many of the teachers are to be recruited from the UK.

Applications for places closed on 5 April 2012. Support staff were being interviewed till mid-April 2012.

Facilities
When completed there will be up to eight storeys, and set in nine acres, or 400,000 square ft. Its architecture is said to be based on the Royal Terrace, Bath. Facilities will include auditorium, playing fields, sports hall, and indoor swimming pool.

Construction is in progress and as of May 2012 the school has officially reported their plans are making good time.

Fees
With high fees, parents are expected to have a choice of financial packages which can assist. These could include certificates and debentures, that will need to be paid-up before the child has even sat their entrance exam. According to Mark Hensman of Harrow International Schools, issue of debentures has been for purpose of funding the construction of the school.
