Video: A new approach to Early Years at ESF
We’ve redesigned our structure to offer parents peace of mind and students a world-class education from K1 right through to Y13.
Starting September 2026, families applying for a K1 place at an ESF kindergarten will be informed of their linked primary school or schools.
Parents will be offered a guaranteed place for their child at a linked primary school following completion of the kindergarten phase.
Secondary schools are already linked to primaries – offering parents complete certainty of their child’s full educational journey from K1 to Y13.

What is the “Associated School Model” and how does it benefit my child?
The Associated School Model is another way of describing our ‘through-train.’ Essentially, it means that certain ESF schools are linked with each other, with children transitioning between those linked schools. So, when your child enters an ESF kindergarten, you will already know which primary and secondary schools they will attend.
How does this improve the transition from Kindergarten to Primary?
Principals from associated schools now collaborate closely on curriculum alignment and social scaffolding. This includes joint play sessions, shared specialist support, and ‘experience days’ where K2 students spend time in their future primary classrooms.
What are the benefits of the ‘One ESF’ community for parents?
Beyond student benefits, parents join a lifelong network. You’ll have access to cross-school workshops, a unified parent portal, and a consistent communication style that simplifies your engagement with your child’s education for the next 15 years.
When should I apply for K1 for my child?
Applications to K1 are invited from 1 to 30 September of the year prior to the start of school in August for the following year. This application period is called ‘September Central Applications’.
Which birth year will the new Associated Primary School affect?
Children born in 2024 will be the first cohort of the new approach to Early Years at ESF. They will start Year 1 in August 2029.
What happens if I miss the September Central Application window?
Applications may be submitted, and will be wait-listed behind on-time applications.
Yes. For children who require additional learning support, we have a dedicated, highly collaborative process to ensure they are set up for success in Year 1. Our kindergarten teams work closely with families during the K1 year to identify any support needs. For children who require enhanced levels of support, we build an Enhanced Transition Plan during their K2 year. This involves a specialised team that designs a personalised roadmap for your child’s move to primary school.
If a child’s needs are best met by a specialised environment like the Jockey Club Sarah Roe School (JCSRS), a dedicated review panel will evaluate the best placement. Please note that places at JCSRS are subject to availability.
Can I choose which ESF Primary school my child goes to?
Parents will need to consider the kindergarten associated with their choice of Primary School. At the start of the K2 year, parents will complete a transition form to confirm their place for Y1 the following academic year. Parents may indicate a preference order for the associated primary schools linked with their current ESF kindergarten. There is no guarantee of allocation to the 1st-preference school, except for kindergartens with a direct feed into their associated primary school.
It is not possible to select a primary school that is not associated with the child’s kindergarten. The guaranteed Y1 place is at the associated school.
When will I know which ESF Primary school my child will go to?
ESF K2 parents will be informed of allocation results for the primary school at the end of October/early November of their allocated primary school for the following academic year.
The guaranteed Y1 place is at an associated primary school for their kindergarten. There is no guarantee, as there is very limited availability of Y1 places after all the priority children from its associated kindergarten(s) transition.
How many kindergarten classes will transition to primary? When will be the first cohort?
Children born in 2024 transitioning to Y1 for August 2029 will be according to the number of classes in the table below. Allocation will be by priority, computer random number and EDB requirements (where necessary) for kindergartens with more than one associated primary school.
| Wu Kai Sha International Kindergarten | 5 classes to Sha Tin Junior School 2 classes to Beacon Hill School |
| Hillside International Kindergarten | 4 classes to Bradbury School 4 classes to Glenealy School and Peak School |
| Tsing Yi International Kindergarten | 5 classes to Kowloon Junior School 3 classes to Discovery College and Beacon Hill School |
| West Kowloon Kindergarten | 4 classes to Clearwater Bay School 2 classes to Kennedy School |

英基將根據「相關中學」處理和分配 Year 7 學位。 以下是每所小學的相關中學。
| 英基小學 | 相關英基中學 |
|---|---|
| 白普理小學 | 南島中學 |
| 鰂魚涌小學 | 南島中學 |
| 己連拿小學 | 港島中學 |

Year 7的過渡資訊將通過電子郵件發送給家長，包含登入帳號資料和需要填寫的表格。
在12月1日之前入讀英基小學的所有Year 6學生在完成小學課程後，將保證有英基中學的學位。
對於學習支援（LS）的 Year 6 學生，將通過不同的流程管理和分配學位，該流程考慮到所有中學 Year 7的學習支援分配。 Year 7 學位將在 11 月底之前確認。
從12月1日起入讀Year 6的學生不能保證在相應的「相關中學」獲得中學學位，將會由有空缺的英基中學提供Year 7的學位。
學生保證獲得相應中學的 Year 7 學位。 從 9 月 1 日開始可向你學校的招生辦公室，申請轉讀英基中學，學校將根據學額和書面請求的日期分配學位。 不能保證轉其他讀英基中學 Year 7。
請注意，學生須支付按金和保養費/建校費以確定私立獨立學校和英基學校之間的轉學。
請注意以下重要日期：
| 9 月的前兩周 | 家長填寫 Year 7入學表 |
| 11月底 | Year 7的錄取通知書由英基通過電子郵件發送 |
| 12 月初 | 確認 Year 7 學位的截止日期。 英基小學生需支付按金以確認學位。 |
就讀英基國際幼稚園的學生將升讀 Year 1。 幼稚園將提供資訊支援升班過程。
需要額外學習支援的英基幼稚園學生，或需推薦進行招生和審查程序。 這是一個獨立的申請流程，由英基中心集中管理。 此過程也適用於所有英基外的申請學生。 學習支援和賽馬會善樂學校的學額資源有限。 因為需求通常大於學額，所以並非所有通過招生和審查過程的學生都可獲取錄。
Year 1的過渡資訊將通過電子郵件發送給家長，包含登入帳號資料和需要填寫的表格。
所有在12月1日前就讀英基幼稚園的 K2 學生，保證在完成 K2 課程後升讀英基小學。
在獲 Year 1 取錄之後入讀 K2 的新生不能保證獲得小學學位，但將在 Year 1 候補名單上獲得優先權。
小學學位分配基於優先順序、教育局要求（如需要）及計算機生成的隨機數。 如果K2學生的首選學校超額申請，則可選擇另一所小學。 不能保證獲首選學校取錄。 一旦接受英基小學錄取通知書，無論其居住位址如何，在提出任何轉學請求之前，都須留在同一所學校兩年。
請注意以下重要日期：
| 9 月的前兩周 | 家長填寫Year 1入學表格 |
| 11月底 | Year 1的錄取通知書由英基通過電子郵件發送 |
| 12 月初 | 確認 Year 1 學位的截止日期。 英基幼稚園學生需繳付按金以確認學位。 |
英基學習支援調整（LOA）提供一個框架，用於識別和記錄需要學習支援的學生的調整和適應。
英基使用 LOA 1 到 6 來描述學生支援課程所需的數量和類型。 LOA亦反映所需要提供的支援。
下面概述了LOA 1至6學生最常見的安排。 支援內容可能會因個別學生而異。
由班級或學科教師領導額外並持續的班級教學和學習調整，與特殊教育部門聯繫和/或在學校教育的1或2個方向進行短期小組或個人支援。
根據班級評估和教師判斷，在學校教育的多個方向中，對目標、成果、材料或設備進行定期、個人化的教學和學習調整。
結合額外的小組支援，在多個領域進行至少 2 個週期的支援。 學生有IEP，班級/學科老師與特殊教育部門之間有持續的聯絡，並與家長定期聯繫。 這些學生在學校教育的一個方向上，往往遠低於同齡學生的表現。
對目標、成果、材料或設備進行日常、個人化的教學和學習調整。
獲得主流課程的日常支援，旨在發展技能、強化概念和實用生活技能。 接觸中學的替代課程。
持續、個人化的支援。 通過有系統、高度個性化和高師生比例的教學計劃提供支援。
需要較少的、基於班級的教學和學習調整的學生，可在所有幼稚園和學校的主流班級中得到照顧。
需要更廣泛、日常教學和學習調整的學生，將在英基小學和中學的學習支援（LS）內得到照顧。
學生通過招生和審查流程的中央流程，而不是當地學校，取得學習支援。
需要最廣泛教學和學習調整的學生，將在賽馬會善樂學校內得到照顧。
賽馬會善樂學校有一個定製廣泛和平衡的課程，以滿足多樣化學習者的需求。 該課程以不同科目教授，同時鼓勵學生跨學科應用知識和技能。
賽馬會善樂學校課程分為六個途徑，每個途徑都有自己獨特的學習方法和優先事項。 途徑由年齡和學生的需求決定。
國際文憑大學預科課程（IBDP）是為16至19歲的學生設計的課程。 學生可以選擇參加完整的國際文憑大學預科課程(IB DP)或個別國際文憑大學預科課程。 IB DP被廣泛認為是升讀大學的最佳準備，它培養研究技能，促進個人責任感並鼓勵獨立學習。
完整的IBDP包括六個科目和以下關鍵部分：
學生可以從以下每組中選擇一個科目，共選擇三個高級程度課程（HL）和三個標準程度課程（SL）。
我們的個人化學習路向使學生能夠專注於創意和提問，並反思他們的成就。 善於應用學習的學生，通常是實用和以目標導向。 課程內容和現實世界息息相關。 這些課程沒有包括外部考試。
英基學校目前提供英國商業與技術教育委員會課程 （BTEC） 被全球許多大學認可的課程。 這些課程可以與其他科目一起修讀，併為學生提供多樣化的學習體驗。
部分英基學校也在開發 國際文憑職業先修課程（IB CP） 為有特定職業路向的學生提供機會。 IB CP允許學生專注並致力於他們想追求的職業道路。 IB CP亦包含了一些國際文憑大學預科課程(IB DP)的要素。 它還涵蓋了IB的教育理念和使命。
中學課程（MYP）培養學生成為積極，有愛心的終身學習者，表現出對自己和他人的尊重，並有能力參與社會事項。 學習重於孩子課堂內外的探究精神，並鼓勵學生成為批判性、創造性和反思性的思考者。 MYP是一個框架，以此基礎上設計具有挑戰性和嚴格的課程，在課堂上學習與現實世界的聯繫。
該課程由8個學科組成，通過6個互動領域整合，提供世界性的學習環境。
我們的中學課程有以下五個關鍵部分：
學生有機會完成一個專題報告來培養自主學習，和展示他們的學習成果，鼓勵反思他們的學習。 這是一個長期專題報告，學生須深入調查全球性的問題，發揮創造性和批判性思維。
中學專題報告
在Year 9 或10 完成MYP的學生要完成社區專題報告，使他們有機會服務社區。 所有在 Year 11 完成MYP的學生須完成個人專題報告。
IGCSE是一個為期兩年的課程，外部 為 Year 10至11 制定帶有評估標準的教學大綱。 英基五所中學課程設計均符合這些標準。 這包括以外語、第二語言和第一語言提供的一系列語言課程。 考試由外部設置，類似IB文憑期末考試。 學生通常選修七到十科，得以評分。
學生還將能夠發揮創意，應用於社區服務和體育活動中。 其中一些活動具相關專業資格。
國際文憑小學課程（PYP）是一項國際性的跨學科課程，旨在促進孩子在實際課堂和不同學習方式上的發展。 PYP重於兒童的全面成長，包括學術、社交、體育、情感和文化需求。
我們提供廣泛的課程和課外活動和機會。 課程以三種相互關聯的方式表達：
我們的學習基於遊戲。 橫跨五個關鍵領域：身心靈、歸屬感、溝通、貢獻和探索。我們聆聽每個幼兒的發言，一同為他們語言和知識的進步感到高興。 我們的課程以孩子為中心，與孩子一起探索。 它以探究為基礎，以概念為導向。 刺激而靈活的課程，可滿足孩子的探索精神。
