As we state in our mission, “Hong Kong Academy is a dynamic learning community that provides a rigorous international education characterised by mutual benefit and support.” We require ongoing communication and collaboration between parents, educators, students, and learner support professionals. From initial identification through ongoing programmatic intervention, it is vital to have an open and collaborative partnership with parents. As early as in conversations with Admissions, we engage with parents if their child may benefit from learner support. This collaboration fosters creativity, communication and problem-solving skills.
