Learning and Teaching Plan
Whole-school Language Policy:
With the aim of enhancing students’ English proficiency and boosting their learning performance, Mathematics is taught in English in all forms from S.1 to S.6. A portion of the Integrated Science to review concepts and content taught in Chinese in English. Our school strives to maximise students’ exposure to English and their opportunities to use the language through both curriculum measures adopted by the English Department such as drama teaching and non-curriculum measures, for instance, English corner and English speaking days.
Learning and Teaching Strategies:
Our school encourages the departments of different disciplines to employ a variety of teaching strategies, which includes a wide range of activities, homework designs and assessment modes that are conducive to arousing students’ interest in learning and improving their learning effectiveness. To promote e-teaching and learning, our teachers deploy a wide range of electronic platforms to foster both teacher-to-student and student-to-student interactions and to offer appropriate feedback to students through the effective use of data. The BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) Scheme in S.1, which allows all students to use their tablet computers to facilitate learning in class, is also conducive to the creation of a favourable learning environment for cultivating students’ self-directed learning, problem-solving and collaboration skills as well as boosting their self-confidence.
School-based curriculum:
1. Electives: 3X. Our school offers 15 elective subjects for students to choose from. 3X: S.4, 2X: S5 and S6.
2. Curriculum highlights: To arouse our students’ interest in the learning of languages, junior-form curricula of both Chinese and English are specially tailored for the needs of our students, with the incorporation of drama into teaching. Other school-based curricula also include junior-form Computer Literacy, Life Education and STEM/DT Education.
Development of the Four Key Tasks:
Our school has implemented a schoolwide reading scheme to develop students' reading interest and habits and to promote a reading atmosphere. The activities under this scheme include writers' talks, Chinese and English book fairs, reading club meetings, visits to book stores and so on. In addition to these activities, "Reading Passport", a reading award scheme, encourages students to read extensively based on their preference and needs so as to develop a broader spectrum of interests and broaden their horizons through the exposure to different perspectives, values and cultures. Our school also offers reading lessons in junior forms to maximise the benefits of reading and help students build good reading habits.
Information Technology for Interactive Learning: Through the wifi900 project, our school fosters mobile learning with the use of tablet computers, aiming to provide a wide range of learning experiences to students to enhance their interest in learning and promote their learning outcomes. Over the past decade, STEM elements have been incorporated into the curricula of several subjects namely Science, Computer Literacy and DT, and students have participated in relevant contests. Through focused development from 2017-2021, STEM is gradually taking shape in the school, such as incorporating Micro: bit, VR, robotic arms and Google Expeditions into regular teaching; employing engineering building blocks and drones in ECA; and experimenting STEM in different disciplinary subjects. Financed by the Quality Education Fund (QEF), the construction of the STEM room as well as upgrades to relevant teaching facilities was complete in November 2020, enabling various subjects to utilise the STEM room to conduct STEM-related activities, thus further enhancing the teaching and learning effectiveness. STEM/DT has launched in lower forms. Our school has also successfully set up the Mac Lab through IT-lab scheme. Students will be able to make use of the latest M2 Mac computers to learn programming, AI and media production.
Life Planning Education:
Our school adopts a whole-school, interdisciplinary approach to raising students’ concerns about their careers as well as arousing their willingness to explore and plan their career paths so that they will learn the relevant skills more effectively and develop appropriate career attitudes. By participating in the “CLAP@JC” and use “CLAP@JC HK Benchmarks” to evaluate career development and policy of our school. The focuses of career planning and counselling at different levels are as follows:
1. S.1 to S.3: The cooperation between Life Education lessons, Form teacher periods and different subject disciplines aims to promote students’ self-understanding and development and to help them explore their future paths through setting specific study goals. Form teachers also offer assistance and counselling to students, encouraging them to strive towards their goals through reflections on the action taken.
2. S.4 to S.6: In addition to participation in career and other learning experiences, students are encouraged to design and promote career development activities. The school-based curriculum also provides students with information about a wide spectrum of career paths so that they can make sensible choices based on their career needs. Teachers from the Study and Careers Team and the class teachers will counsel senior secondary students individually to enhance their self-awareness and skills in personal planning, goal setting and self-reflection.

Student Support
Whole School Approach to Catering for Learner Diversity:
To cope with student diversity, small-class teaching is adopted. For instance, in Chinese Language and English Language lessons, junior form students will be divided into groups according to their abilities so that teachers can pay more attention to those who need help. Besides this, a myriad of class activities and specially-designed materials are used to motivate students and help them learn better.
Whole School Approach to Integrated Education:
Our school strives to establish an inclusive campus culture by adopting a whole school approach through the ‘Learning Diversity Concern Group’, a committee comprised of the vice principal, the Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO), supporting teachers for special educational needs, teachers of the three core subjects including Chinese, English and Mathematics, teaching assistants and counsellors. To support students with special educational needs in different tier groups, the three-tiered intervention model is adopted to evaluate students’ learning progress and the effectiveness of support measures on a regular basis. The learning support grant is also effectively utilised to employ counsellors and hire service providers, who offer services such as speech therapy, emotion management training, art therapy, career and life planning, after-school tutorials and interest classes to help students learn better and realise their potential. In addition, our school-based educational psychologist renders consultation services to teachers, conducts suitable psycho-educational assessments for specific students and offers professional advice on the design of support programmes according to the educational, emotional and behavioral needs of individual students.

Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos
Home-School Co-operation:
Laying great emphasis on support for parents, our school has set up the Parent-Teacher Association to foster better relations with parents. Through parenting talks on different themes, workshops on promoting mental health, picnics and regular meetings, parents have the opportunity to be involved in the school development and the nurture of the next generation. To care for parents’ spiritual needs, the Parent Fellowship, set up by the school and the church, organises various evangelical activities to enable support between parents and help them know more about Christianity.
School Ethos:
Our students are well-behaved, and the rapport between teachers and students is strong. In recent years, our school has been actively promoting class culture by strengthening the training of class committee members and allowing them to develop multiple intelligences and gain successful experiences from organising class-based activities.

Others
Our school is very much concerned about counseling work and moral education in junior forms, therefore life education is incorporated into the school curriculum. In Form 1, the introduction of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) into the subject by two of the school managers (a clinical psychologist and an expert in adventure-and-counseling activities) together with the "Form One Student Hostel Scheme" aims at promoting students' confidence and learning motivation.
The abovementioned opportunities also include exchanges and competitions. In recent years, our school has entered a wider range of international STEM-related competitions as well as local ones. For instance, our student representatives received an honourable mention (senior secondary) in 2018 World GreenMech Contest in Taiwan and the gold award in the Underwater Robot Competition 2021 organised by the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
Besides STEM, our school actively promotes life-wide learning particularly through offshore exchange programmes, and Mainland and overseas visits proactively. In recent years, students had set foot in various countries, such as Australia and Kenya. One special programme, which aims to maximise students’ exposure to English, is the exchange programme co-organised by our school and Redeemer Baptist School in Australia. The programme creates valuable opportunities for students from both schools to visit each other and learn more about the life and culture of their counterpart.
