The school is known as an international school at affordable costs, i.e. a local DSS college offering international learning environment and international curriculum.[7][8][9][10] In the international atmosphere,[11] 73% of the students in the school are international students, who come from over 40 countries.[12][13] Over 40% of the school's teachers are from overseas.[14]

History

The school was established in September 2003.[2][15] It was the first directly subsidised Christian secondary school sponsored by the YMCA of Hong Kong since its establishment in 1901. It was the only EMI school within Tung Chung.[5][6]

Mrs. Rosalind Chan served as Principal from 2004 to 2009. In 2009, the new artificial turf pitch, running tracks and grass field were created.[16]

At the 2009–2011 school year Dr. Nick Miller, former supervisor of the school, succeeded to serve as the principal.[17] During the governing by Dr. Miller, the international curriculum was introduced to the school in 2010.[14][16][18][19] A school concert of large scale was held in 2011.[20][21][22]

The Hong Kong curriculum which consisted of the Hong Kong Certificate of Education Examination (HKCEE) and the Hong Kong Advanced Level Examination (HKALE) has been replaced by the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE) as of 2012.[23][24] The diverse culture, background, languages and curriculum of the school was highly praised by a politician during the graduation ceremony that year.[25] The first ever International Fun Fair was held in December of that year.[16]

Dr. Adrian Price took office as the new principal from the beginning of the 2012–2013 school year. But in May 2013, he suddenly resigned on private grounds. Starting from the school year 2013–2014, Mr. Dion Chen took over as principal.[26][27][28][29] In May 2013, the school was visited by the Secretary for Education who observed the international atmosphere and education style as the uniqueness of the school.[30][31][32] In June 2013, a new music block is dedicated during the graduation ceremony.[16][33]

During a sports meeting in the Tsing Yi Sports Ground on 3 November 2014, some teachers learned that there were rumors among the students that some brownies and cupcakes containing marijuana were sold. The teachers later found two Form 4 female students of Croatian and British origin respectively in the stands. After the police arrived, they found five brownies and 22 cupcakes in a plastic bag, and found that the two students had discussed the sale of marijuana-containing cakes in a Facebook message. The government laboratory technician detected a total of 0.38 grams of cannabis derivatives in the cakes. The two have pleaded guilty to drug trafficking, and one of them was fined $10,000 at Tsuen Wan Magistrates' Courts.[34][35]

In September 2016, the school provided new school uniform for boys and girls.[11]

In 2018, the school's STEM Club demonstrated to the public as well as the Secretary for Education about the robotics inventions.[36]

In 2019, it was the first time the school enrolled Form 1 students from SWYHKCS, an English private primary school located in Kowloon also sponsored by YMCA of Hong Kong, as a school network,[37][38][39][40][41][42] where those students already received sufficient education of local curriculum for Chinese language and Mathematics education, international curriculum for English language and other subjects including STEM subjects corresponding to the education in the United Kingdom.[43][44][45] After the protest on 1 September 2019, the school postponed the start of term until the next day because of considerable uncertainty resulting from the dangerous situation in Tung Chung station and the likelihood of traffic disruption.[46][47] During the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests,[48] the school issued a letter-to-parent in November 2019 mentioning that games and social networking platforms were recently used to "entice, pressure and intimidate students into participating in protests in return for payment". The principal received an inquiry from Apple Daily and said that the above fact was notified by the Education Bureau.[49]

In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, classes are suspended and students are confined to distance education. Online learning was performed throughout the school period for all subjects.[50] During the suspension period, a video was created by the Science Department of the school which explains the details of Coronavirus disease 2019.[51] While the epidemic situation hinders parents' livelihood, the school helped bail out the tuition fees for next academic year.[52] The school has paid or promised to pay more than HK$700,000 deposits to travel agencies for the purpose of organising study tours. When the government issued red tourism warnings to all overseas countries, travel agencies and airlines took the initiative to contact the school to discuss compensation arrangements.[53] The IGCSE and GCE examinations were cancelled, though the school claimed that they were not too worried about the impact on further education of students, as most of them have already obtained conditional offers by that time.[54] In February 2021, the school arranged for teachers to be forced COVID-19 testing for the whole school to resume classes, as the COVID-19 pandemic in Hong Kong has fallen. The principal told the entire school staff to be mentally prepared for testing.[55][56][57]

On 8 February 2021, Principal Dion Chen announced he would be moving on to Ying Wa College. On 23 April 2021, it was announced during a school assembly that Diana Lo would succeed as principal. As of 1 September 2021, Diana Lo officially succeeded to serve as the principal.[58][59][60][61][62][63]
