Top 9 A Level Schools in Hong Kong

This guide is written by Tutopiya’s education experts to help families compare A Level options.

Hong Kong has a mix of British-curriculum schools and other international providers. Some run Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel A Levels, while others focus on IB or local qualifications. This guide highlights A Level-specific pathways and excludes full IB-only and American-only schools, even if they are popular with families.

How this list is ranked (and what “A Level results data” really means)

When comparing A Level options in Hong Kong, useful datapoints include:

  • A*/A and A*/A/B rates at A Level over multiple cohorts
  • Subject breadth, especially in Maths, Further Maths, Sciences, and key humanities
  • Number of entries per subject and approximate cohort size
  • Cambridge/Edexcel awards (Top in Hong Kong / Top in World) where applicable
  • UK and global university destinations and offer success rates

When full data isn’t available, parents rely on inspection reports, word-of-mouth, and the depth of exam support (mocks, clinics, one-to-one feedback).

What to do next (quick checklist)

  • Ask any shortlisted school or college which A Level boards and subjects they offer, and to share recent A Level results.
  • Confirm whether the school is Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel–accredited for A Levels and how many exam sittings they have run.
  • Check how they support university applications (especially UCAS, personal statements, and reference writing).
