Stamford American School Hong Kong (Stamford HK) is celebrating the important milestone of its 10th anniversary this year! To celebrate this special occasion and allow more families to gain a deeper understanding of its educational outcomes, the school will hold a "10th Anniversary Open Day" on 10 October (Saturday) from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at its Ho Man Tin campus. Parents and children are cordially invited to visit, learn more about the school's unique curriculum strengths, experience its modern campus facilities, feel the vibrant campus atmosphere, and engage directly with the principal, teaching team and students.


🔍 Inspiring Potential Through "Inquiry-Based Learning" and Whole-Person Development

Stamford HK is committed to nurturing future leaders with a global perspective. The school fully implements the "Inquiry-Based Learning" teaching model, encouraging students to think actively and learn through hands-on practice. Through interdisciplinary exploration, it cultivates problem-solving skills, critical thinking and a lifelong passion for learning. This teaching approach enables children to learn knowledge more deeply and effectively stimulates curiosity and creativity.


🗣️ Flexible Bilingual Teaching and Daily Language Programmes

From Pre-Primary to Grade 5, in addition to bilingual classes (English/Putonghua), the school also provides an average of 40 minutes of Daily Modern Language lessons, teaching Putonghua and Spanish, and guiding students to explore history and culture to cultivate an international perspective. Parents have praised the school's bilingual programme for its high flexibility, naturally integrating Chinese and English into various subjects. Children growing up in a multicultural environment will be better equipped for future development in the Greater Bay Area and globally.


🤖 STEMinn Practical Competitions: Training Adaptability and Teamwork

The school's award-winning STEMinn curriculum (covering Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, Innovation and Design Thinking) encourages students to apply knowledge across disciplines. The school also actively increases opportunities for students to participate in on-campus and inter-school STEM competitions. Parents have shared that their children need to collaborate with classmates from different grades to design mechanical blueprints on the spot, effectively enhancing their adaptability and communication skills, and learning teamwork and leadership.


🎓 K–12 "Through-Train" with Dual IB and American High School Pathways

As a "through-train" international school offering a quality K–12 curriculum, students can progress directly from Pre-Primary all the way to high school graduation after enrolment, eliminating complicated admission worries. For senior secondary articulation, Stamford HK offers a highly flexible and world-recognised dual-track pathway: the American High School Diploma and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma. Students can choose the graduation pathway that best suits their interests, strengths and aspirations.


🏆 Outstanding Graduate Performance: 70% Admitted to QS World Top 100 Universities in 2026

Graduate performance is the best proof of Stamford HK's strong teaching strength — in 2026, this young school, founded just 10 years ago, achieved a breakthrough in its fourth year of participating in IB examinations: producing one 45-point perfect scorer! The Class of 2026 received over 300 university offers, averaging 8 offers per student, and cumulatively received up to US$14 million in scholarships. Of all offers, as many as 48% came from top institutions ranked in the QS World University Rankings top 50, and 71% from QS top 100 universities.


😊 Caring Growth: Creating a Stress-Free and Happy Learning Atmosphere

The school also cares about students' physical and mental growth. Parents have shared that the school's learning atmosphere is very joyful and spontaneous. Teachers proactively pay attention to and provide feedback to parents on students' mental state, reminding students to maintain adequate rest. Homework is moderate, and both parents and students are under little pressure, truly achieving happy learning and happy growth.
