Harrow International

WYmom

Seems that Harrow IS is a good alternative for those who target at UK boarding schools.

From Sing Tao News today:

專供興建寄宿學校的土地，毗連珠海學院屯門新校舍，將交由一五七二年於英國建校的哈羅國際學校建校；該校是英國傳統寄宿男校，曾培養兩名英國國王、約旦國王侯賽因，以及包括邱吉爾在內的七名英國首相、印度首任總理尼赫魯等名人。

首次來港辦學的哈羅國際學校，已於曼谷和北京設有校舍，分別有一千三百名和五百名男女學生，並採用英國國家課程，讓學生參與英國會考和高考，而香港校舍將取錄至少一千二百名男女學生，同時提供二百九十個宿位供中學生入住，預計於二○一二年八月開學，哈羅香港董事張震遠表示，「目標是使哈羅香港成為亞洲最好的中小學」。學費方面，該校下學年北京分校的學費，由十四萬一千至近十八萬元人民幣不等。

any school that did not screen students by their academic performance, much cheaper than any private school in uk, yet still have good univerisity enrollment . don't take the figures quoted as a criti ...

Dear mattsmum,

Just like to clarify with you the university enrollment of ESF, according to past data, it was over 90% or nearly 100%,  NOT 70% as you quoted. This is in fact satisfactory for a non-selective international school.

If you have doubt, please enquire directly with ESF.

Harrow International, on the other hand, is viewed as a prestiged private independent school in UK.  A good alternative for the very rich.
