YIAA's graduating class of 2025, comprising eleven students, has received thirty-seven offers from prestigious universities in the UK and Hong Kong. Meanwhile, the class of 2024 achieved a 100% acceptance rate at world-renowned art institutions – including the UK's top three, Asia's number one, global top 100, and Hong Kong's top six ranked schools.
Outstanding university placement outcomes stand as a testament to Yinao Academy's educational excellence, while inspiring our faculty to build even broader platforms for dream-driven students in the new academic year. These achievements stem not only from the relentless dedication of teachers and students, but also from the school's BTEC curriculum framework – a holistic vocational system integrating personalized education, cutting-edge programmes, and premier educational resources.
BTEC (Business and Technology Education Council) is a UK-based higher vocational education qualification that also functions as a professional certification. The YIAA BTEC Level 3 Diploma holds equivalent status to Gaokao, A-Levels, AP, IB, and DSE for university admissions, while also serving as a specialized foundation programme. By completing the BTEC Level 3 curriculum at Yinao along with a language proficiency certification (such as IELTS), students become eligible to apply to prestigious universities in Hong Kong, Macau, and overseas.
