Summary

Visitors often acknowledge that DBIS is very different to other international schools in Hong Kong. Centred in the wonderful community of Discovery Bay on the beautiful island of Lantau, the school derives much strength from its tranquil location and its surrounding active community.

We are a non selective school that provides the highest quality education for all.

Further to this, we provide students with a wide range of opportunities academically and outside of the classroom.
