Hydel High School is a prestigious private co-educational secondary school, located on the Ferry Highway, in the Parish of St. Catherine, Jamaica.[1] Founded by former Jamaican Senator, Hyacinth Bennett in September 1993, on Ardenne Road in Kingston, the school grew rapidly after relocating to its present Ferry Campus in September 1995. The Ferry campus was the former location of the now defunct amusement complex Coney Park.
