How the system works

Hong Kong school progression: through-train, feeder and linked schools

Progression links describe formal arrangements between two schools. They cannot be inferred from shared names or sponsoring bodies alone.

Formal relationships

Through-train describes a formal primary-to-secondary progression relationship. Progression remains subject to the conditions published by that school combination.

Linked primary and secondary schools also have a recognised relationship, but their arrangements differ from feeder and through-train schools.

Through-train, feeder and linked relationships do not guarantee unconditional progression. Consult formal documents for any special conditions.

Having the same sponsoring body does not automatically establish a formal through-train, feeder or linked relationship. Verify school profiles and current system documents.
