    International Schools in Hong Kong

    Hi All,

    My family and I just moved to HK and I have a few questions regarding International School in HK:

    1. From the website it seems that Singapore International School and Chinese International School are very similar in a way that both schools are using bilingual (English & Chinese) education system. So, which is better? SIS or CIS?

    2. How about German Swiss International School and Canadian International School? I heard that GSIS is a good school but i don't know anything about CanadianIS.

    Your Opinion is very much appreciated.

    CIS is one of the top schools in HK, it's very academic. SIS is second tier and facilities aren't quite as nice but it's not a bad place.

    CDNIS is an excellent school offering full IB with an extremely lively program. A lot more sporty than CIS or GSIS with very nice facilities, sporting trips overseas etc.... GSIS has a strong academic program and will have excellent facilities once their new campus opens.

    CIS and CDNIS have a very very high percentage of local kids(90%+), GSIS slightly less.

    HKIS and ESF have the brunt of the caucasian kids if that matters to you...
