Our approach to education planning
Know your options. Focus your preparation.
Make sense of school information in the context of your child. A student profile, reasoned recommendations and a preparation timeline help the whole family understand where to focus.
- Written planning report
- A student profile, curriculum and pathway comparison, preparation priorities and questions for the family to resolve.
- School selection rationale
- During school selection, the reasons each recommendation fits the student and the preparation still needed.
- Preparation timeline
- Key dates, document tasks and practice priorities, with responsibilities for the family, student and adviser.
- Progress records
- Document status, application progress, training feedback and next actions within the agreed service.

Your questions, answered
How do you assess whether Hong Kong is suitable for a student?
We consider the student's curriculum, academic foundations, communication and wishes alongside the family's intended timing and living arrangements. The initial consultation identifies questions to explore; specific school recommendations require fuller information and assessment.
What does the in-depth assessment include?
A written report bringing together the student's profile, pathway options, school-selection direction, priorities and an action timeline. It explains the reasoning and gives the family a practical basis for discussing next steps.
How are fees arranged?
The in-depth assessment is charged separately, with subsequent application services agreed by stage. We explain the relevant scope and charging approach during the initial consultation. The agreed service proposal sets out the arrangements.
