St. Paul's Co-educational College

St. Paul's Co-educational College is an Anglican, full-day secondary school located at 33 MacDonnell Road, Mid-Levels, Hong Kong. It was founded in 1915 as a girls-only school until the outbreak of World War II, after which it was converted into a co-educational school. It is the first school in the Round Square network in Greater China, and offers the HKDSE and IBDP curricula in parallel. It, along with its affiliated primary school, has also been under the Direct Subsidy Scheme since 2001.

History
The college was founded in 1915 as '''St. Paul's Girls' College''' () by the Hong Kong Anglican Church. One of the founders was Kathleen Stewart, sister of Arthur Dudley Stewart and Evan George Stewart who ran St. Paul's College, Hong Kong. In 1918, the College was the first school in Hong Kong to require students to wear school uniforms. In 1927, the College was moved to 33 MacDonnell Road, and has remained as the location of the school since then. In 1932, the College adopted the school badge that is still used now. Amidst the outbreak of the Second World War and Japanese occupation of Hong Kong in 1942, the College suspended all operations. In 1945, the College resumed operation while St. Paul's Boys' College moved in. Since then, the College began to accept both boys and girls, and became the first co-educational school in Hong Kong. As the College transformed from a girls school to a co-educational school, a whole-day primary school was established, and Mr Maak Ying Kei was appointed as the Headteacher of the primary school. When St. Paul's Boys' College moved back to their campus in Bonham Road in 1950, the school continued to accept both boys and girls, remaining co-educational. Before the primary school changed into an AM and PM school in 1957, it moved to 1 Calder Path. The position of Headteacher in the PM primary school was taken up by Ms Fok Lan Hing. In 1959, the new west wing of the College was completed as part of the secondary school. In October 1969, the school established their first aid service for boys, the St Paul's Ambulance Cadet Division under Hong Kong St John Ambulance. A Nursing division for girls was later set up. == Exam results ==
