Optimum entry point into the UK system• Majority of schools think the best entry point forinternational students is into Year 9 (aged 13-14), orbefore (ie after HK Secondary One).We’d advise students hoping to do GCSEs in the UK, tocome start with us at least one to two years before thecourse starts.The longer they have in the UK to adjust to a differenteducation system and ways of learning, and to buildtheir English language skills, the easier it will be forthem to achieve their full potential.
