The "Option Internationale du Baccalauréat" (OIB) offers advanced level studies in English.
[citation needed] FIS was established in 1963, as French engineers and technicians arrived in Hong Kong to build the Shek Pik dam.
[4] Prior to 1988, the English medium stream only went up to the fifth form, with the General Certificate of Secondary Education being the end qualification.
[5] In 1988, FIS became the first international school in Hong Kong to be awarded the World IB status.
[1] The IB curriculum became available to the English medium stream and lengthened the course of study available to sixth form-equivalent students.
[7] In March 1999,[8] the newly constructed Blue Pool Road Secondary School campus was opened.
[9] As of 1990, language courses include French, English, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, and German.
[13] The Tseung Kwan O campus houses early years through junior high school (collège).
[14] Previously the Hung Hom Campus housed primary school students; it opened in September 2014,[15] and was in Kowloon City District.
