ICS educates over 1,230 students, delivering robust academics and genuine spiritual discipleship as an everyday passion. Hong Kong families are eager to enroll their children at ICS. The school offers an American curriculum with 27 Advanced Placement courses available to our upperclassmen. All classes are taught in English. The average SAT score of the last several senior classes is approximately 1366. Approximately half of ICS graduates attend top 100 universities in the world.

Because the school’s mission is delivered through the classroom teachers, the school has created a strong salary and benefits package to attract and retain great classroom teachers. These include a generous salary, a housing allowance or on-campus apartment, a relocation allowance, full tuition remission for up to three dependent children, flight allowances, full family medical care, and annual bonuses.

The ICS campus includes two full-sized gymnasiums, an indoor eight-lane swimming pool, a tiered 500 seat theater, and well-equipped classrooms. The campus is located in Hong Kong, which is an ultra-safe city, with a gorgeous skyline, amazing hiking trails, world-class restaurants, and even our own Disney park. Approximately 70 percent of Hong Kong is nature preserve, so outdoor hiking and beaches are great attractions. The MTR (above ground train system) provides easy access to most of Hong Kong. An MTR station is just a block away from the ICS campus, providing exploration opportunities for Hong Kong’s rich cultural attractions.

Taxes

The maximum tax is limited to tax at the standard rate of 15% on the net assessable income after any allowable deductions. For more information, please go to the Inland Revenue Department's website: https://www.gov.hk/en/residents/taxes/taxfiling/taxrates/salariesrates.htm

Accommodation

Expatriates and their immediate family members (i.e. spouse and dependent children) will have the priority to reside in the staff housing as it is mandatory for them to stay in staff housing in their first academic year.

Flights/Transport

ICS provides onboarding and repatriation air tickets to eligible expatriate faculty hired from outside of HK except nearby regions (i.e. China and Macau). Upon completing two years of service and the successful renewal of the next contract, a flight allowance based on the original residence of record will be provide the eligible expatriate faculty.

Moving Allowance

ICS provides relocation allowance according to specific categories.

Medical

ICS provides worldwide group medical coverage to assist with and cover the outpatient and hospitalization medical expenses.

Dental

ICS provides a dental care plan to eligible faculty and staff and their dependent spouse, and children between 14 days old up to their 19th birthday, or 23rd birthday if being in full-time education.

Retirement

There are two retirement fund schemes:
1. Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme - required by law that the employee and employer will each contribute an amount equivalent to 5% of the monthly basic salary, up to HK$1,500 each per month.
2. Voluntary Contribution Scheme - after two years of full-time, continuous service at ICS, employees are able to opt for this retirement scheme. It serves as an alternative way to save your money while you can earn the vested benefits from contribution from ICS. As it is a voluntary scheme, you will get the accrued benefits (your own contributions & ICS’ on vested basis) when you leave ICS, so that you do not have to wait until the retirement age of 65.
