Fee Levels for Academic Year 2026/27
Dear Parents,
The ESF Board met last night to approve our budget for the upcoming school year.
During our meeting, we focused on one essential goal: ensuring we have the resources to provide a world-class education while keeping our school fees at a fair and sustainable level.
To continue investing in our schools, our growing technology needs, and—most importantly—the exceptional teachers who inspire your children every day, the Board has approved an average fee increase of 4.1%.
You can find the specific breakdown of these changes, – which is subject to approval by the EDB – in the table below:
| 2025/26 Annual Tuition Fees (HK$) | 2026/27 Annual Tuition Fees (HK$) | Monthly Increase (Percentage) | Monthly Increase (HK$) |
|
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year 1-6 | 139,000 | 145,000 | 4.3% | 600 |
| Year 7-11 (year 11 becomes non-subvented in 2026/27) | 181,100 | 188,300 | 4.0% | 720 |
| Year 12-13 (subvented) | 167,600 | 174,200 | 3.9% | 660 |
I often say that the quality of an education system cannot exceed the quality of its staff and we all know that at the heart of any great school is its people.
To help every one of our students, your children, be the best that they can be, we must continue to recruit and retain the very best teachers from around the world. This investment ensures that your children continue to thrive and achieve the remarkable results we see year after year.
We know we are living in uncertain times, and we are mindful of the economic pressures many families face. Please be assured that our commitment to providing “best value” remains our top priority. By managing our costs carefully, we are proud to remain one of the most affordable international school groups in Hong Kong without ever compromising on quality.
Every member of the ESF team—both in and out of the classroom—treasures the trust you place in us. We are dedicated to supporting your child to develop the skills and attributes to help them face the future with confidence, and to lead a happy, successful life.
Our commitment to you remains resolute. You have entrusted your child’s education to us; this is a privilege and responsibility felt deeply by us all, and as such, we will continue to create the conditions for them to be safe, happy, learning, and engaged.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
Warm regards,
Belinda Greer
Chief Executive
