Curriculum Highlights
Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship is a mandatory part of the curriculum, equipping students with the real-world skills, strategic mindset, and problem-solving abilities needed to thrive in a fast-changing economy.
What sets our programme apart is its hands-on approach—students don’t just learn business concepts, they apply them by launching and managing real ventures. Through this experience, they develop creativity, resilience, and leadership, giving them a competitive edge for university and beyond.
By fostering an entrepreneurial mindset, we prepare students not just for their next academic step, but for a future where innovation and adaptability are key to success.
iSTEAM
STEAM is an interdisciplinary fusion of ICT, technology, robotics, coding, engineering, mathematics, science, and art and design. Unlike many Hong Kong schools where iSTEAM, commonly known as STEM or STEAM, is offered as an extracurricular activity, it is integrated as a core subject within our weekly subject timetable.
Additionally, our iSTEAM programme’s holistic assessment framework is what sets it apart, evaluating not only academic skills but also essential life skills and values—including resilience, adaptability, collaboration, risk-taking, honesty, and integrity. This well-rounded approach equips students to make meaningful contributions to their academic, personal, and professional endeavors.
A-Levels
As one of the top schools in Hong Kong offering A-levels, students receive a globally recognised qualification that opens doors to top-tier universities around the world. A-levels are specialised, subject-focused courses that give students the opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge in their chosen subjects, making them highly competitive in university admissions.
Accepted by prestigious institutions in the UK, US, Canada, Australia, and beyond, A-levels give students a distinct academic advantage when applying to world-renowned universities like Oxford, Cambridge, and Ivy League schools.
AI-Powered Learning
As Hong Kong’s first educational institution to integrate cutting-edge AI-driven academic planning, assessment, and personalised learning, we are pioneering a transformative approach to education.
Through our partnership with Curriculum.com’s proven AI platform, we empower teachers, students, and parents with real-time progress insights, ensuring every learner’s needs are met with precision.
This innovative technology enables dynamic academic planning and tailored learning pathways, allowing educators to implement timely, targeted academic interventions.

“This is a transformative leap toward redefining senior education in Hong Kong. By merging our legacy of personalised academic support with Curriculum.com’s AI-driven precision, we’re equipping students not just to succeed, but to lead in a globally competitive future.”
— Rob Fox, Headmaster
Extra-curricular Activities
Our extracurricular (ECA) programme is a cornerstone of our holistic education philosophy, designed to cultivate well-rounded growth and curiosity. These opportunities not only enrich personal development but also foster lifelong passions and real-world competencies.
We curate a variety of activities that extend beyond academics, empowering students to cultivate leadership, creativity, and collaboration—skills essential for success in university and beyond. By encouraging participation in ECAs, we help students build standout portfolios that reflect their unique talents and passions, strengthening their applications to top-tier institutions.
We collaborate with specialist external partners to deliver high-quality, cutting-edge after-school programmes, complemented by dynamic teacher-led initiatives that harness the expertise and passion of our own educators.
Student Life
At Wycombe Abbey School Hong Kong, students thrive in an academically rigorous environment designed to develop independent, self-motivated learners. Each day is a dynamic blend of challenging academics, innovative learning experiences, and personalised support, ensuring students are fully prepared for success at top universities worldwide.
Student life is thoughtfully designed to foster both academic excellence and personal growth. We provide a supportive, close-knit community where tailored support—including specialised after-school clinics—ensures every student gets the guidance they need.
As pupils progress, particularly in the Sixth Form, they are gradually entrusted with university-style independence, empowering them to manage their time, explore passions, and take ownership of their learning journey.
This unique balance of guidance and autonomy mirrors the challenges and opportunities of higher education, equipping students with the confidence, resilience, and skills to transition seamlessly into their futures. We don’t just prepare students for university—we empower them to excel beyond it.
A Day in A Life
Experience the rhythm and excitement of a typical day at our Senior School, where learning comes alive through engaging activities, meaningful connections, and joyful discovery.
Before School
Classes begin at 8:00 AM, and students can arrive by school bus or public transport. Before the day officially starts, students have the chance to catch up with classmates and teachers, setting a positive tone for the day ahead.
During School
The schedule has eight periods per day of 40 minutes each. When it comes to lunch, students have the flexibility to choose between a catered school meal, bringing their own lunch, or—for Sixth Form students—grabbing a to-go option from one of the trendy cafes nearby. This time also allows the Sixth Form students to hang out with friends independently, giving them a taste of the social freedom they’ll experience at university. Extracurricular activities (ECAs) and sports are seamlessly integrated into the school day.
After School
The school day officially ends at 4:30 PM, and school buses are available for those who need them. Students can remain on campus until 7:00 PM for tailored support, with rotating teachers offering individual clinics in exam preparation, homework assistance, and university admissions guidance. Students can also engage in one-on-one learning sessions, ensuring the students receive the support they need.
Individualised Attention
Afterschool Clinics
Students benefit from our After School Clinics, a dedicated academic support programme that allows them to stay on campus until 7:00 PM. Teachers rotate on a bi-weekly basis, offering focused subject-specific sessions tailored to individual learning needs. These clinics provide the extra time and attention necessary to help students overcome challenges, reinforce key concepts, and build confidence in their studies.
The programme emphasises personalised, one-on-one mentorship, ensuring each student receives targeted skill development and academic guidance, whether a learner requires intervention or seeks to excel beyond the curriculum.
Additionally, we offer specialised 1:1 tutoring (fee-based), including EAL (English as an Additional Language) support and subject-specific academic tutoring, providing further flexibility for families seeking extra assistance.
Small Class Sizes
Intentionally small class sizes are the cornerstone of our commitment to individualised learning. We strictly cap class numbers at 24 students to ensure no group exceeds our size limit—and should that threshold be reached, classes are promptly split to preserve the integrity of our learning environment.
With fewer students per class, we cultivate a setting where every voice can be heard, strengths can be amplified, and knowledge gaps can be proactively addressed.
By maintaining small cohorts and an optimal teacher-student ratio, we foster focused interactions that drive measurable progress. At our school, individualised attention isn’t just a philosophy; it’s a structured practice rooted in deliberate design, ensuring every student thrives.
Our Campus
Situated in Kowloon City at The Billionaire Royale, our school boasts a prime location within Hong Kong’s vibrant new business hub.
Our campus is as intentionally crafted as our curriculum, fostering creativity, connection, and intellectual exploration in environments designed to inspire growth and independence.
Open communication between students and teachers is encouraged through collaborative spaces, such as round canteen tables for shared meals.

Each student benefits from a dedicated form tutor who provides individualised guidance, supporting their social, emotional, and academic development. Through this holistic approach, we aim to empower students to grow in confidence, resilience, and independence—key skills for success both inside and outside the classroom.
Our personalised support system ensures every learner receives the care and mentorship they need to thrive academically and personally.
