Whole-school Language Policy:
The school emphasizes the mastery of Chinese, English and Putonghua. We use mother tongue in teaching to enhance students' understanding of knowledge, but we also strengthen our students' English. The school regularly organizes lively and interesting English activities to arouse their interest in English. In junior forms, there are Putonghua classes to strengthen students' ability in Putonghua. The school provides extra-support to Special Educational Needs (SEN) and Non-Chinese Speaking (NCS) students to improve their language learning.

Learning and Teaching Strategies:
The curriculum covers all Key Learning Areas. There are measures to facilitate curriculum integration, remedial teaching and small class teaching. Teachers are constantly engaged in continuous professional development. We embrace a culture of lesson observation and collaborative lesson planning to enhance effectiveness of teaching and learning. In classrooms, teachers use stimulating questions to raise students' motivation in learning. Our Life-wide Learning Programme aims at enriching our students' experience, enhancing their interest and motivating them to learn. At present, the school is exploring ways to facilitate Self-regulated Learning to further students' role in learning.

Development of the Four Key Tasks:
