About this school
ESF Sha Tin Junior School (SJS) is a primary school of the English Schools Foundation, the largest English-medium international school organisation in Hong Kong. It sits on Lai Wo Lane in Fo Tan, next to ESF Sha Tin College, and describes itself as an inclusive learning community where effort is valued and creativity is encouraged.
Students follow a curriculum inspired by the IB Primary Years Programme, a transdisciplinary framework that covers academic, social, physical, emotional and cultural growth. Student voice is developed through the Student Council, House Captains, CARE representatives and Environmental representatives, and learning extends beyond the classroom through trips, excursions, camps and visiting speakers.
The school offers co-curricular activities in sport, arts, music and community service, along with pastoral care and counselling. The campus runs a no-car policy, and families usually reach it by public light bus 69K from Sha Tin station. Tours are offered by the principal, typically on Wednesday mornings.
