Kiangsu & Chekiang School - International Section (KCIS) Hong Kong
Reviews & Information

A former student from 2016-2020 since here, some teachers are horrendous, but some teachers are great, although they don't last very long in the school; some instead believe that students of the lowest class cheated on tests rather than actually trust their students who had spent efforts in their academics, and some rather not spend extra efforts in counselling students that struggle in the subject that they are teaching. The facilities, on the other hand, are as horrendous as well. Most of the facilities, including the toilets and the library, are very run down, the toilets are just downright disgusting, as if the school is ignoring the very hygiene of their students who had paid plenty to get into this school, most of the lockers are broken. The school refuses to look into it, not to mention that international section students suffer the most since most of our facilities were hand-me-downed by the local section in which the quality could be better. In contrast, the local sections get the most out of it. The food quality the canteen sells doesn't match the amount you paid for the tuition. At the same time, we international section students are not able to buy food from the outside not until we're in Year 12; on the other hand, the local section can go outside whenever they want no matter what grade they are in, it's almost as if the school itself is more biased towards the local section than the international section where parents pay more for the sake of their children's future in the hopes of learning English to go abroad and lead a better future. Despite being a very horrendous school, I have had many positive experiences here, meeting many people. I suggest that the international section should have more privileges than that of the local section, doesn't appreciate anything that they're given, and better the way of teaching, rather than having a teacher reading off the book while doing absolutely nothing when students are to discuss a topic and listen and give feedbacks to those who might be struggling that may not show it on the surface. TLDR: International section students should be given more privileges than local section students; studying here is not worth studying, and facilities should be improved. P.S. The daily items that the students use have to be carried around everywhere to class, which they also have to carry up and down the stairs, but they are not permitted to use the lift, so I suggest that the school implement a new lift for students.

Been in this school for more than 10 years, I'd say the primary section is good but one in secondary it gets bad. One of the headteachers called my friend a tramp for wearing the wrong shoes despite saying that he has them in his locker and will change into them. The school has just deteriorated after the years, many students left and changed schools due to how poor the school is, many teachers left as well but I doubt for the same reasons, not to mention the toilets there are times in where there is poop on the toilet seat and not even a place in where toilet paper rolls are provided in the toilet or could be placed as it has been removed in a few floors. Also the fact the school is split among half international section and local section students, the local section students provide a bad example to the international students such as breaking the glass of classroom due to the door being locked and how our facilities are shared amongst them despite we paying more than local section kids do we don't get many more benefits. This school mainly cares about getting your money, even the food served in the canteen on multiple occasions due to soya sauce running out they mixed it together with water for students to use with their food. Even with the facilities in the playground the basketball hoops are without nets for years now and haven't been replaced since. However, I do admit there are a few good teachers, there was this one teacher who just didn't really teach students anything for the time she was there all she did was copy and paste notes from the textbook on to a PowerPoint and told us to copy it down for the whole lesson, as well as in a way telling the students to do her job for her telling students to do make a PowerPoint on separate topics in which no one has learnt yet and tells the students to teach topics to the class, that teacher is gone now thankfully for after complaints from students for the first year she was in the school they kept her around for a second year. For an international school as a whole, I wouldn't recommend sending in your child here for secondary school, as many of my friends who have gone to this school admit that it is a bad school compared to other international schools.
