Security
Creating a safe environment
FIS endeavours to provide a safe and secure environment for students and their parents.
CCTV
CCTV cameras are installed at Blue Pool Road, Jardine's Lookout and Chai Wan campuses for the safety of students, staff and visitors. A notice that CCTV is in operation is always visible in areas where cameras are in use.
Security Card Access System
In addition to the presence of security guards at the entrance of our 4 campuses, entry to Blue Pool Road and TKO is controlled by an access card system, for additional security.
Transportation
Use of the school bus or public transportation is recommended to access our campuses. As is the case for many Hong Kong schools, no parking is available for visitors’ cars on site.
