Whole-school Language Policy:
Students' “biliterate and trilingual” proficiency will be improved through the introduction of Putonghua lessons, extensive Chinese and English reading schemes and writing weekly journals. To enhance the English learning environment of students, we conduct various extended learning activities in English such as publication of English journals in order to provide students the opportunity to learn the abilities of interview and editing. Our graduates will also assist in organizing "Exam Skills Class" to strengthen the Chinese and English oral skills of students. Morning assembly on every Thursday will be held in English or Putonghua so that students have the chance to practice English or Putonghua on the podium. We also carry out cross-curricular English enrichment programmes involving collaboration between English language teachers and staff from non-English language subjects areas such as Music, Computer and Home Economics.
In addition, study excursion is launched every year to offer an authentic and practical learning English environment for students. Students are also encouraged to sit for international English and Putonghua tests to attain professional qualifications which is beneficial for their study and career.
