Wah Yan College, Hong Kong

Wah Yan College, Hong Kong (WYHK; demonym: Wahyanite, pl.: Wahyanites) along with her brother school Wah Yan College Kowloon is a grant-in-aid secondary school in Hong Kong. Founded on 16 December 1919 by Tsui Yan Sau Peter (1889–1980), it is now a Roman Catholic secondary school for boys run by the Chinese Province of the Society of Jesus. Fully subsidised by the Government of Hong Kong, it is a grammar school using English as the medium of instruction. It is often considered, together with its brother school Wah Yan College, Kowloon, and feeder school Pun U Association Wah Yan Primary School, as one of the most prestigious boys' schools in Hong Kong. It has an enrolment of approximately 800 students with 60 teachers and Irish Jesuit Fathers. The supervisor of the school is Rev. Fr. Stephen Chow, S.J., who is an alumnus of the school, a Roman Catholic Jesuit priest, and an educational psychologist. The current principal of the school is Dr. So Ying Lun, who is an alumnus and a former teacher of the school. Students have exemplary performance at the HKDSE and admission rate of Form 1 student at Wah Yan College (both Hong Kong and Kowloon) remains very low. It is generally recognised by the public that Wah Yan College, Hong Kong is a top 'Band 1' school. It is manifest that Wah Yan College, Hong Kong has been one of the best secondary school for a long time. To meet upcoming challenges and serve the Jesuit vision of education even better, the school embarked on a detailed exploration exercise of nearly 3 years and conducted a full scale and rigorous 9-month consultation of stakeholders' views of joining the 'Direct Subsidy Scheme'. The consultation indicated strong support for the scheme among parents and alumni while teachers were evenly split on the issue. The Society of Jesus decided to apply for the school to join the scheme in January 2018. The application is now being considered by the Education Bureau.
