History
editBy March 2014, over 500 students applied to attend the school and over 1,000 people of various nationalities applied for teaching positions.[3]
Circa 2016, the school had plans to charge a $20,000 HKD fee per student per month, but plans were shelved after they protested during a meeting.[4] As of 2017[update], the school had plans to open a new campus at the Tin Wan Shopping Centre, but it received opposition from area politicians.[5]
In 2021, the school announced its new secondary campus located in Kwun Tong (Formerly the campus of Delia School of Canada (East Kowloon)). Subject to government approval, the school will open for the 2021–22 academic year. [6][7]
