教育局常任秘書長黃鴻超表示，英國哈羅公學將開辦香港首所國際寄宿學校，並提供1500個學額和560個宿位。
黃鴻超說，哈羅提供的學額數目超過了政府原先的規定，顯示其對香港成為教育樞紐的信心和承擔，能吸引世界不同地方學生來港就學，為香港多元化的學校體系增添新動力。
他表示，特區政府將繼續監察國際學校學額的供應情況，跟進相應措施滿足需求。
政府去年撥出供國際學校投標辦學的4幅用地，其中位於屯門的土地由英國哈羅公學投得。
成立於1572年的哈羅公學是英國傳統寄宿男校，曾培養兩名英國國王、一名約旦
國王，以及包括邱吉爾在內的7名英國首相等名人。該校首次來港辦學，在泰國
曼谷和北京均設有分校。

I dont know about the others.. for my kids, they will surely apply to Harrow HK... though it is only Harrow's International branch, the Harrow carries a lot of weight... Winston Churchill and Nehru.. it will be a great privilege for my kids if they get admitted...

they said they would not be the most expensive IS in HK... as far as I know, the most expensive school right now is ISF (~HK$150,000 p.a.).. so even Harrow would not be more expensive than ISF, I am sure it wont be much cheaper either... so I guess HK$150,000 p.a. may be a good gauge..

while there will be many applicants, there will be many spaces too as they will open most of the class (Year 1 - 10) in their first year of opening... so work harder and maybe your kids will get admitted too!!!

Let's not jump into conclusion what this new school is going to be like.
But, of course, everyone has his rights to think (or actual want or hope) what this school will be like...
I know. Any OTHER school is not as good as THAT school anyway.
Oh. I am not talking about YOU, OK?

I think it can attract kids of expats living at Gold Coast and many wealthy families along Castle Peak Road. It is a good alternative for them as now there is no IS in NT west and they have to travel for long hours everyday going to Kowloon or HK Island.

It may of course attract very rich kids from Mainland just across the border, but Harrow is quite different from ISF as it is really a UK school while ISF is a bilingual school with mandarin focus.

If the admission requirement is strict and high on English proficiency and academic standards, I believe the school can gradually intake higher quality students coming from Kowloon or NT. So it really depends.

For families living on HK Island, there are already many famous IS for them to choose, so Harrow will likely be not attractive to them.

But if you apply for primary section, you have to add on the boarding fee as well, normally it's almost the same fee as school fee.

They said boarding starts only in secondary school, and is not compulsory.

Well, edexp... oh maybe shall I call you Wisekid2007 or the "clones"??? Well, I dont mean it will matter.. and we all know it is YOU!

I think in your mind there is only one good IS .. that is the school where you r kid is studying..

Well, if I were you, I would go get a life and do something more productively... this is a forum where parents would want to share productive information.. the moment when you start to advocate for YOUR school but bad-mouthing other IS.. then we all know it is you who start your propaganda engine (or mouth) again trying to tell people your kid get admitted to YOUR school...

While boarding is not compulsory, I think putting the kids on boarding at Harrow sounds very interesting to me (if my kids have a chance as the boarding space would be assigned to foreign students first and the places are limited).. Boarding would give the kids true experience of how a traditional British boarding school environmente is all about... this would train them to be highly independently, making them well equipped for overseas college education.. also, the fratenity relationship may prove to be a life-long asset for the boarding kids...

Harrow's boarding is a very unique offering in HK while no other IS is able or planning to offer... if given a chance, i would definitely let my kids try the boarding arrangement...

Harrow and Churchill

I don't hold prejudice for or against Harrow. It seems good for HK to have a branch from an elitist boarding school in the UK. However, I feel uncomfortable with the way Harrow promotes the school's association with Winston Churchill.

According to Churchill (his autobio The Early Life), he didn't really enjoy his schooling there. He didn't do well at Harrow and found himself handicapped at Latin, French and Maths (there's no way he would be allowed to learn Greek). What he enjoyed most was Harrow songs and he just couldn't wait to go to the Royal Military College at Sandhurst. He said he would have been happier and found it more beneficial for him to study somewhere/something else. He noted that he would not want to study at Harrow if given a choice.
