Learning and Teaching Plan

Whole-school Language Policy:
Our school emphasizes the promotion of students’ biliterate and trilingual abilities, in particular achieving excellence in both English and Chinese languages. We provide different opportunities to cater for the diverse language needs and abilities of our students. English is adopted as the medium of instruction in some non-language subjects in some classes, as total immersion, to pave the way for students to the Senior Secondary Curriculum and to future studies. In the same way, Chinese is adopted as the medium of instruction to students who benefit most from it while extended learning activities are added to stretch their English potential. To enrich every student’s exposure to English, there are various fun-filled activities to cultivate a language rich environment and a Drama-in-Education junior curriculum has been implemented to promote students’ interests to learn English in an experiential and creative manner.

Learning and Teaching Strategies:
