In recent years, due to the increase in time spent on the Internet, students stay at home for a long time and lack time to interact with their classmates and teachers. Moreover, as students spend more time on the Internet, they are susceptible to the influence of negative information, which significantly impacts their physical, mental, and social development. Therefore, the school will provide a lot of positive values and healthy life education activities to promote students' physical and psychological growth. In addition, as we required junior form students to stay in school to have lunch, we closely monitor the quality of lunch boxes to ensure that students have a balanced diet.

Learning and Teaching Plan
Whole-school Language Policy:
Our school adopts Chinese as the main medium of instruction. The “allocation of time to subjects” arrangement has been adopted and English is used as the medium of instruction for specific S.1 to S.3 classes in Mathematics and Integrated Science lessons. To enhance the biliterate and trilingual ability of students, in addition to offering Putonghua classes in S.1 and S.2, our school aims at creating a rich language learning environment by organising a wide range of English language and Putonghua programmes and activities for the whole school.
Learning and Teaching Strategies:
The major measures adopted in this academic year include enhancing students' self-learning skills, enhancing teaching effectiveness through blended learning, promoting extensive reading, enriching students' cross-curricular learning experiences, catering for learning differences etc
School-based curriculum:
1. Electives: 2X and 3X. Students are to choose two to three elective subjects among the 12 given choices. Please refer to the school website for details.
2. Curriculum highlights: In junior levels, we offer Technology and Living at all forms to promote technology education and to respond to students' demand for continuous updating of technology knowledge and skills. Through hands-on classroom activities, students are not only interested in learning about technology and using electronic devices but also able to enhance their generic skills, such as problem-solving, collaboration, and communication. In senior forms, students can choose to take Applied Learning courses according to their abilities and interests. S.4 students who take two elective subjects participate in the newly established diversity-learning courses to enrich their learning experience and skills through: Reading Across the curriculum, STEM and Daily Life, and Film Arts and Multimedia Production. Our school implements small-class teaching to study Chinese, English, and Mathematics at different levels. Teachers can adapt the curriculum to students' levels and cater for learner diversity differences. Thus, it enhances teaching effectiveness.
Development of the Four Key Tasks:
1. Civic and Moral Education – to strengthen value education: Following the curriculum guides which emphasise value education, all subject departments and committees offer many opportunities for students to further their civic and moral education. Students are engaged in activities such as making a formal pledge "We Promise,” the National Day celebration, Basic Law activities, reading articles on moral education, morning assembly speeches, visits, inter-school exchanges, the environmental protection programme, and so on.
2. Reading to Learn – to read across the curriculum: To boost the reading culture, the school library collaborates with subject departments and committees to organise activities to promote reading regularly. Students are also encouraged to read widely through the LoiLoNote learning management system and other e-platforms that promote e-reading.
3. Project Learning - to achieve integration across curriculum and application of knowledge and skills: At least two cross-curricular projects are assigned in junior forms, which seek to enhance students’ learning autonomy and generic skills and to lay a good foundation for enhancing students' competencies in various subjects at the senior secondary level.
4. Application of I.T. to Interactive Learning: Our BYOD policy has been extended to Form 5, where students learn through iPads during lessons and after school. Teachers implement interactive lessons using LoiLoNote, Google Classroom, real-time online lessons and various educational software.
Life Planning Education:
The school adopts a whole-school approach, working with subject panels and committees, PTA and class teachers to address the career development needs of different students. Through a school-based career and life planning curriculum, students will understand themselves and the needs of society and develop the right attitudes and values to face future challenges. We arrange subject-sharing sessions, workplace experiences programmes, campus tours, and individual counseling to guide students to think about their career paths after graduation according to their abilities, interests, and aspirations. A career and life planning resource centre, "Know It All” offers the latest information on further education and employment, enabling students to make informed choices.

Student Support
Whole School Approach to Catering for Learner Diversity:
Our Student Support Team is responsible for planning, executing, and reviewing school-based measures to provide whole-school inclusive education. With assistance from various administrative committees, class teachers, subject panel heads, and subject teachers, our school is a unified workforce to support students with special educational needs. Based on students’ specific needs, we invite inputs from parents, educational psychologists, and teachers to attend case meetings to establish a comprehensive support system for relevant students.
Whole School Approach to Integrated Education:
Our school upholds the five basic principles of "early identification,” "early support,” "whole-school participation,” "home-school cooperation," and "cross-sectoral collaboration" to cater to the students with special educational needs in various areas, such as learning, social and emotional, in the hope that they will be inspired and have fun in learning, and that a caring and inclusive campus culture will be built. Our school uses the Learning Support Grant to hire teachers to improve the teacher-student ratio and employ student counsellors and support staff to provide after-school support services and activities, such as speech therapy services, occupational therapy services, inclusion activities, social skills enhancement groups, concentration enhancement groups, career-related interest activities, study skills courses, and test adjustment arrangements. We hope to provide targeted support to students with special educational needs. In addition, to build a harmonious and inclusive campus, we have trained student leaders - "Guidance Prefects" - to develop students' spirit of service and leadership skills, as well as to protect their peers with special educational needs, to achieve "mutual help, love, and growth.” To enhance the professional skills of our stakeholders in caring for students with special educational needs, we have arranged training for our teachers, teaching assistants, and other support staff by external professionals (e.g., educational psychologists, social workers) so that all school staff can help build a caring culture.

Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos
Home-School Co-operation:
Our school established the Parent-Teacher Association in 1999. Rapport between parents and teachers is enhanced through various activities. Our PTA arranges regular meetings to let parents understand students' learning in school. The meetings also allow parents to share their invaluable parenting experience. Our PTA, moreover, organises workshops, interest classes, picnics and fun days. Through keen participation in these activities, harmonious relationships between teachers, parents and students are developed and their sense of belonging to school is strengthened.
School Ethos:
Our discipline and guidance teachers are very experienced. Civic and moral education, as well as life education, is constantly strengthened to enlighten students from different perspectives. We have built a conventional and caring school to ensure that our students cultivate self-discipline, personal integrity and self-awareness, pursue excellence, establish good interpersonal relations, and then solve the difficulties encountered. We also nurture our students into citizens with a sense of social responsibility to one’s family, our nation and the world.
In August, we arrange for new S.1 students to participate in orientation activities to help them adapt to secondary school life and reduce their anxiety. In addition, S.1 students are required to participate in self-care camps in the first semester so that they can understand self-discipline and self-awareness.

Apart from attending external teacher training courses, teachers also share their experiences with their peers, including LoiLoNote workshops and TEAMS online teaching operations, to help solve problems in e-learning and improve the effectiveness of learning and teaching. In addition, the school has set up a mentorship programme for new teachers, with experienced teachers serving as mentors to help new teachers adapt to the administrative and teaching work of the school as soon as possible. To enhance the professional skills of our stakeholders in caring for students with different learning needs, we have arranged training for our teachers, teaching assistants, and other support staff by external professionals (e.g., educational psychologists, social workers) so that all school staff can help build a caring culture.
Life-wide Learning (including Five Essential Learning Experiences to be provided through Key Learning Areas, extra-curricular activities, co-curricular activities, etc.):
With the mission of "whole-person development,” we provide students with a wide range of learning activities, including uniformed teams, arts and culture, hobbies and skills development, academics, sports and artistic talents, leadership training and community service, etc., so that students can learn about themselves, discover their potential, and develop leadership, teamwork, and social responsibility. Students are encouraged to participate in various performances, exhibitions, competitions, and community services to build successful experiences. Different subject groups also organise life-wide learning or cross-disciplinary activities for students, such as overseas study tours and study trips to the Mainland, so that students can go out into the world to broaden their horizons and practise diversified learning.
In terms of joint school activities, our students participate in The Lok Sin Tong Sunshine Youth Project, The Lok Sin Tong Charity Walk, The Lok Sin Tong Charity Candy Campaign, the Project WeCan, allowing students to get involved in the community while cultivating the spirit of teamwork and service to the society.
