caption_attribution_description: English: Island School in Mid-levels Central, Hong Kong.
context_page_description: Island School is a co-educational international school located on in Hong Kong. It is the founding school of the English Schools Foundation, and is still a member. The school has been accredited by international organisations such as the Council of International Schools and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.
  The school was originally located in the Hong Kong Mid-Levels district until the school moved to two campuses in Sha Tin District and Tai Wai in December 2017, due to renovations to the former campus. It currently houses around 1,200 students across 33 nationalities.
  Island School is a registered IB World School and offers the IB diploma program along with an alternative BTEC program in the senior years.
context_section_description: The former campus consisted of seven blocks ranging from five to seven floors high, with blocks 1 to 6 arranged in a rectangular fashion. Students could travel to adjacent blocks by linked walkways or footbridges. As the campus was situated on mountainous terrain, blocks located close to the mountain were placed at a higher altitude than their counterparts, and as such the floors between different blocks were often not correlated. The former campus was then demolished and all learning was diverted to the two replacement campuses.
  The two replacement campuses, Sha Tin Wai and Tai Wai, house two different sets of levels. Sha Tin Wai houses grades 7, 8, 12 and 13, while Tai Wai houses grades 9, 10 and 11.
