Learning and Teaching Plan

Whole-school Language Policy:
Our School values the development of students’ capabilities in English and Chinese language, both written and oral abilities. We take students’ English learning seriously and are devoted to creating an English rich environment through activities. The English Corner is open at lunchtime and after school. All activities are organized by the English Ambassadors so that they can use English beyond the classrooms. Furthermore, we adopt a fine-tune policy on English learning in junior forms. English is used as the medium of instruction in some subjects in order to cater for learning needs. Most subjects introduce English vocabulary and reading texts to increase students’ exposure to English and enrich their vocabulary capacity and consolidate their foundation. Students not only get more opportunities, but also more confidence to use English. Various measures are also taken to develop and strengthen students’ language proficiency in Chinese language and Putonghua.

Learning and Teaching Strategies:
Students’ learning needs are always of our utmost concern. Different learning and teaching strategies are implemented to cater for learners' diversity. Small-class teaching is adopted in the learning of English language and other core subjects. Subject panels collaborate and organize cross-subject learning activities, with the aim of enhancing learning efficacy. Besides, STEM edcuation and eLearning are always on the top priorities.

School-based curriculum:

Our students are divided into small reading groups to share their reading interests and habits so as to enhance the effectiveness of the school-based reading scheme. With the addition of the reading classes, students’ curiosity about the world will be aroused through experiencing the wonder and value of reading a great variety of cross-curricuular written texts.
2. Moral and Civic Education: Our School adopts the “Whole School Approach” to promote moral and civic education. Departments and committees have integrated the elements of civic and moral education into their own subject curriculum and activities.

Talks, study tours and board displays are provided regularly to enhance students' awareness of the current issues of Hong Kong, China and the world.

It is implemented in individual mode and/or group mode, with the aims of developing students’ generic skills and interpersonal relations. It also enables students to construct knowledge by conducting a “Spiral and Progressive Mode”. In this manner, it facilitates the progression in the cognitive aspect, nurturing of generic skills and broadening of horizons.
