IB-curriculum international schools in Hong Kong form a large and well-established cluster, with many schools authorised to teach the Primary Years, Middle Years and Diploma or Career-related Programmes across the city. Most IB international schools use English as the primary medium of instruction while commonly offering strong Chinese programmes - often Mandarin (Putonghua) and, in some schools, bilingual or dual-language pathways; Cantonese is more often taught as a subject than used as the main teaching language. Annual tuition varies widely across the sector but typically sits in the broad band of roughly HK$100,000 - HK$300,000, and many schools add one-off capital levies, debentures or annual building charges that increase upfront costs. Admissions commonly open many months (often up to a year) before the September school year, some schools run multiple intakes and many maintain wait pools or priority processes, so relocating families should apply early, check visa and enrolment rules and budget for testing, deposits and possible one-off payments.
