Principal's Welcome

Principal's Welcome

Welcome to Discovery College!

 

At DC, you'll find a vibrant international community that is shaped by the diversity of experiences and perspectives across our school.  As a through-train IB World School nestled in beautiful Discovery Bay, we pride ourselves on cultivating a positive, happy environment where every student's potential is recognised and nurtured. We strive to create a school for each student, ensuring responsive teaching and personalised learning that celebrates the uniqueness of all. 

 

As one of the most diverse schools in Hong Kong, the richness of thought that comes from an IB education is something we champion wholeheartedly. The International Baccalaureate framework encourages students to think critically, question assumptions, and connect learning across disciplines. It nurtures independent thinkers who are able to analyse complex issues, communicate effectively, and approach challenges with creativity and resilience. Beyond academic rigor, an IB education at Discovery College cultivates well-rounded individuals who are not only intellectually capable but also principled, reflective, and actively engaged in making a positive difference in the world.

There is no "typical" DC student. On our campus, you'll see students training in our beautiful sports facilities, developing their creative portfolios in the art and music rooms, and working together in leadership teams across campus. Our students learn from one another, develop global awareness, and cultivate a deep sense of empathy and understanding that transcends borders. This diversity enriches every discussion, every project, and every interaction, preparing our students to be compassionate and effective global citizens. 

 

As part of the English Schools Foundation (ESF), we benefit from a connected community of educators and resources. Our students across the college are able to take part in Hong Kong-wide ESF events such as Chinese Battle of the Books, the ESF Innofair, sporting events, and student leadership workshops across the organisation; while our educators benefit from professional development opportunities with world leaders in the education space, subject-specific collaborative teams, and and working groups for special projects. 

 

We invite you to delve deeper into what makes DIscovery College a truly special place for learning and growth. Learn more about our five DC Outcomes, which underpin our curriculum both in and out of the classroom, or about the student support that is available across our community. We look forward to partnering with you in your child's educational journey and continuing to build a school where students will learn to Grow, Discover, and Dream.
