History
Sear Rogers International School (SRIS) was established in 1982.[2] Students at the school mostly are from Southeast Asia and Hong Kong.[3] SRIS is a co-educational English medium school for pupils aged 12–18 years (Grades 7 to 13, equivalent to F1 to F7).[4]
In 1996, the school purchased Royden House International School, a school founded in 1958.[2] According to the scholar Yoko Yamato, SRIS tuition fees in 2003 were less expensive than "most other" international schools.[2] RHIS considered and rejected a merge with Pegasus Social Service Christian Organisation's Pegasus Philip Wong Kin Hang Christian Primary School in 2007 owing to Pegasus offering HK$1 rather than HK$50 million for the Tsuen Wan property.[5]
