While not an ideal alternative to parents, homeschooling still allows you to provide your child with an education throughout the move.
Waiting lists are very normal in Hong Kong’s schools, this is why I advise to be sure to begin looking for a school as early as possible in your relocation process, so don't hesitate to put your children on these waiting lists.
International schools established by a foreign government provide subsidized fees and priority to those applicants with citizenship in the host nation. So maybe you should look for a school that’s of the same nationality of your children so they can be a priority.
Keep in mind that Costs of education in Hong Kong are high. It is common practice for schools to sell these debentures to Corporations who then provide them for the children of their expatriate workers. Most companies purchase debentures at the International school corresponding to the nationality of the corporation. For example a German company will purchase debentures at the German Swiss International School in order to accommodate the educational needs of the children of their expatriate workers. In this respect since your husband is relocating to Hong Kong with a corporation have a significant advantage when trying to place your children in a school. The Human Resource Department of your corporation should be able to give you the information needed on the subject.
