School Characteristics
School Management
School's Major Concerns:
1. To implement self-directed learning and construct effective lessons, with the aim of enhancing learning literacy;
2. To continue to enhance students' language proficiency in Chinese and English, to broaden their horizons and to develop their interest in learning with a purpose;
3. To set students’ sights on whole person development and to continue to promote positive values through leadership training as well as education in career and life planning.
School Management Organisation:
With the use of a sound researched based self-evaluation mechanism, all subject panels regularly engage in planning, implementing and evaluating their curriculum in order to improve current practices. All of which, are done with a view to promoting effective and qualitative learning and teaching, through appropriate structures for communication and quality assurance.
Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee:
The IMC was established in 2006 to enhance transparency and accountability in formulating school policies. Getting members of the school sponsoring body, parents, alumni and teachers involved in the work of the IMC enables them to participate in and support school policies. This partnership boosts mutual trust, communication, understanding and collaboration.
School Green Policy:

Learning and Teaching Plan
Whole-school Language Policy:
Chinese is used as a primary medium of instructions in junior forms while English is used as the medium of instructions when conducting Extended Learning Activities (ELA) in Mathematics, Life and Society, Integrated Science and Physics (S.3). In Senior Forms, our school adopts English as the medium of instructions in Physics, Mathematics (Extended Part), some selected Mathematics classes and DSE Music.
Providing an enriched English learning environment for students always takes priority at our school. We have made a special effort to refine our school-based curriculum and teaching strategies. To keep S.1 students abreast of local and international topical news events, we have our "School-based English Editorial Reading Aloud Programme". The "Language Across the Curriculum Programme" is carried out to pave the way for students to self-study other subjects in English. Online reading helps students develop their skills in self-learning. To help students explore English beyond Hong Kong, we have organized English Exploration Learning Trips to Singapore and Brunei. Our school-based English ambassadorial training programme aims to support students to introduce our school and curriculum with competent English. The English ambassadors serve as coaches in a creative poetry writing programme initiated by our school. They guide the primary students who join the programme to become creative poets. Around 200 students actively participate in the Hong Kong Schools English and Chinese Speech Festival every year. We have won multiple awards over the years. We also got the championship in the Creativity All Round 2021 --- ‘From Reading to Writing’ Competition (Junior Secondary English Writing Group).
Learning and Teaching Strategies:
To nurture students to be all-round, Activity Lessons and Liberal Arts Education Lessons are offered. Various course options in our NSS curriculum provide students with plenty of opportunities to develop their diverse abilities and interests optimally. Our school strives to implement progressive, avant-garde and learner-centered teaching strategies to cultivate students’ generic and specific skills for their holistic development.
STEM education is one of the major concerns of our school. With collective efforts made by the Departments of Integrated Science, Computer Studies, Design and Technology as well as Physics, our students are cultivated to be both inquisitive and creative in exploring the scientific world. With the establishment of the STEM Lab, we could further develop STEM Education. We promote e-learning in the hope of facilitating STEM Education. We organize STEM classes and STEM Days to encourage students to participate in a variety of STEM competitions. We have launched an Aerospace Leadership Training Programme. The Hong Kong Aerospace Leaders Association has been supporting us to develop training programmes for teachers and students. Our school has also been invited by regional primary schools to conduct STEM lessons with their students.
School-based curriculum:
1. Electives: 2X and 3X. Senior form students can do two or three electives. For details, please refer to our school website.
2. Curriculum highlights: A comprehensive curriculum is advocated to offer students with diversified learning experiences. During co-planning meetings, our school-based curriculum is modified to bridge the gap between junior and senior forms while aligning teaching with students’ abilities and their interests.
With the aim to refining our junior curriculum, we have collaborated with the Quality School Improvement Project organised by the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and the EDB over the past few years. The efforts made by the Departments of English, Mathematics, Integrated Science and STEM related subjects have had a positive impact on students' learning. Learning skills lessons for S.1 and S.4 students are conducted.
Development of the Four Key Tasks:
A school day starts with a 20-minute reading lesson. Subject-based reading materials are incorporated into the learning activities for various subjects. The Issue Enquiry Approach is adopted in junior forms for Life and Society and Integrated Science. Cross-curricular activities through project learning are implemented. A school-based curriculum is developed to promote civic awareness. Junior form students join online reading and oral English programmes. An online classroom device is provided via our Intranet for students’ extended learning.
Life Planning Education:
The Career and Guidance Team has developed a comprehensive school-based curriculum in career and life planning, with a view to helping students develop a better understanding of themselves, focusing on academic and career advancement as well as formulating a blueprint for their own lives. To keep students informed of updated information on further studies and the job market, the Career and Guidance Team arranges visits, seminars, mentorship programmes and a career week. Through a series of workshops, students learn how to develop positive attitudes and acquire essential skills in setting life goals for self-improvement. We have actively participated in the Business-School Partnership Programme, the "InnoMind" Programme organized by the Young Entrepreneurs Development Council and the "Youth Impact Award", all of which led to Championships. Our students got into the final round of the JUMPSTARTER Hong Kong Student Startup Competition 2021 organized by Alibaba Entrepreneurs Fund.

Future Development
School Development Plan:
We truly believe that "Every student is able to learn progress and excel". Hence, we value the importance of laying a strong foundation for learning through the fundamental steps of: Preparation- Participation- and Reflection. All of which helps to serve the essence of a ‘good lesson’, be it through blended learning, e-learning, an on-going process for refined preparation, or an assessment for learning. All these learning skills are conducive to student success in the classroom.
We value STEM education. We incorporate concepts of environmental protection into STEM learning. We also organize artificial intelligence, virtual reality, robotics, coding and aerospace programmes and activities to make STEM learning fun and meaningful. With the establishment of the STEM LAB, together with an integrated solar installation, multimedia centre, eco-garden, recycled facilities, our students are well-supported by the technologies to enjoy STEM learning. Last but not least, we offer scholarships for STEM learning in order to give students the incentive to aim high.
We value multiple intelligence. Through life and careers education, our students are brought up lovingly with integrity, discipline and guidance. An extensive range of school activities are innovated to help students develop the qualities of empathy and care for others. Simultaneously, students are also motivated to learn positive thinking and essential values to face up to adversity. The leadership training programmes further develop confidence in our students.
Teacher Professional Training and Development:
Apart from engaging teachers in the regular meetings for common lesson preparation, educational visits in and out of Hong Kong are also organized. Whereby, teachers are encouraged to develop themselves professionally by formulating and implementing innovative subject-based development plans. Thematic talks, classes for the purpose of peer observation and the sharing of exemplary teaching materials are a normal practice for our school. Such activities are instrumental in fostering the professional growth and development of our teachers.
To further enhance our effectiveness in teaching and learning, the Departments of Chinese Language, English Language and Mathematics have participated in the EDB Support Service Programme and the Quality School Improvement Project (CUHK) to enhance teaching and learning.
Life-wide Learning (including Five Essential Learning Experiences to be provided through Key Learning Areas, extra-curricular activities, co-curricular activities, etc.):
Aiming to promote whole person growth and develop academic capabilities, numerous programmes such as performing arts, recreational activities, skill-based and community service activities are offered. More than 20 societies and interest groups are made available for students to develop their potential to the maximum. To broaden students' horizons, learning trips to Singapore, Brunei, Seoul, Okinawa, the Republic of Kazakhstan and the mainland have been organized. Our students actively participate in the Business-School Partnership Programme and the multi-intelligence programmes. We value moral and civic education. We hope to nurture our students to be responsible citizens. The Senior Form Curriculum for the “Other Learning Experiences” is developed as an extension to the activity lessons to junior forms. Teachers guide students to complete a Student Learning Portfolio to record their learning experiences.
