Our recent QA visit to Hong Kong听听

In March 2026, we听visited Hong Kong as part of听our听established QA听process. These visits ensure that our iPGCE provision remains rigorous, consistent and responsive to the needs of schools and听iPGCE听students.听

During our visit, we spent time with听iPGCE听students听and mentors across a number of schools, including:听

  • Chinese International School听

  • ESF Beacon Hill School听

  • Fukien Secondary School Affiliated School听

  • The Independent Schools Foundation Academy听

These settings provide our students with an exemplary teaching experience, allowing them to develop their practice and apply the theory they learn on their听iPGCE听course.听

This work builds on previous quality assurance visits carried out by Andrew Locke, Head of Programme for our Assessment Only course, further reinforcing our long-term commitment to the region and the consistency of our approach. 

 

 
鈥淚 had the pleasure of visiting schools across Hong Kong during my QA visits in June 2024 and 2025. It was a fantastic opportunity to see first-hand the fantastic teaching that is taking place in classrooms, build relationships with iPGCE students, school mentors and leaders as well as ensure consistency across our team of highly skilled and experienced assessors based in Hong Kong.  

The reception I received from schools and iPGCE students was always warm and welcoming and they are highly complementary about the high-quality programme and the remote and in person support offered through our well established IPGCE programme.鈥

Our lasting commitment to excellence 

Each year we work closely with a wide network of assessors, tutors and schools, strengthening relationships and ensuring a high-quality experience for all iPGCE students. 

Our team of assessors, who live and work in Hong Kong, bring extensive experience to the course. They provide personalised guidance and constructive feedback, helping iPGCE students reach their full potential.  This hands-on support is complemented by online guidance from 糖心Vlog personal tutors and dedicated course leaders, ensuring every student has the resources they need to succeed.
