IB DP sessions in Hong Kong for 2026–27
Private, independent, and international schools in Hong Kong - especially around Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and New Territories - often run HKDSE, IB, IGCSE pathways with English, Cantonese, and Mandarin instruction. Coordinators juggle September intake with mid-year transfer windows while finance teams track term fees with transport and activity levies.
Hong Kong families increasingly expect portal access for fee receipts, attendance summaries, and HKDSE exam calendars with publish-gated report cards - not phone calls to the front office. Schoolyi connects admissions, roster, fees, exams, and family communication on one academic calendar so document-heavy admissions and expatriate family portals does not live in disconnected spreadsheets. Local named facts include Hong Kong, HKDSE, IB, IGCSE. Academic operations align to September intake with mid-year transfer windows and Hong Kong term boundaries on a central holiday-aware calendar. For 2026–27, treat official circulars published for this year as the only source of day-level dates.

IA deadlines and predicted grades sit on the school calendar beside that session. They are not the IB’s attendance register. Never invent a date sheet on this page. Named owners still have to keep the holiday master, the roster, and the family view aligned in this place, because a brochure paragraph will not survive the first mid-year joiner or the first board week.
