Whole-school Language Policy:
Chinese is the medium of instruction for S.1 to S.6. To improve the students’ proficiency in English, while upholding mother-tongue teaching and enhancing proficiency in Chinese and English, our plan is to increase the total lesson time for conducting extended learning activities in English in S.1 to S.3. The non-language subjects such as Mathematics, Integrated Science, Life & Society, Geography, Technology & Living, Business Fundamentals and Music are taught mainly in the medium of Chinese, while certain topics and concept words are taught in English. Also, English is used for revision on topics previously covered in Chinese and for the teaching of Mathematics in the elite classes in S.1 to S.6. Exam and test papers will partly be set in English for assessments.

Learning and Teaching Strategies:
Students are trained to enhance their analytical thinking, self-learning abilities and generic skills. All classrooms are equipped with a computer, a visualizer and a projector. Some classrooms are levelled up with interactive whiteboards. The school has two advanced Learning Centres, an English Centre and a self-learning centre. Our curriculum structure keeps pace with the students' abilities and the needs in society. For junior forms, we offer diverse academic subjects, such as Life & Society, Creativity & Media, Computer Literacy, Business Fundamentals, Technology and Living as well as an informal curriculum, such as reading programmes across curriculum, adolescent growth programmes, cultural activities and STEM activities. Chinese and English Morning Reading Sessions are held for the whole school. Student Ambassadors are appointed to promote reading. Chinese and English Reading Awards are given to outstanding readers. Opportunities are also provided for students to share their reading. Talks by writers, book exhibitions and Book Borrowing Competition are organized. Participation in reading competitions organized by outside organizations is highly encouraged.

School-based curriculum:
1. Electives: 2X. Elective Subjects: Bio, Phy, BAFS, THS, C.H., Chem, Econ, Geog, V.A., T&L, ICT
2. Curriculum highlights: Our S.1 to S.3 English and Chinese curriculum is tailor-made to cater for the needs of our students. Diversity Learning Grant is provided by EDB to run Enhancement Programmes for elite students in senior forms outside school hours. Intensive Remedial Programmes are implemented for junior form students to cater for their learning diversity.

Development of the Four Key Tasks:
Reading across the curriculum: Implementation of Chinese and English Morning Reading Program, extensive reading scheme organized by various subjects, reading passports, student ambassadors to promote reading and talks by writers.
Information technology for interactive learning and self-directed learning: Installation of computers, projectors, visualizer and Wi-Fi in all classrooms, broadband and WiFi access to the Internet. Some classrooms are equipped with high-quality and large-sized digital white boards. Tablets for learning are available when needed. The Computer Room is open to students after school. The "Bring-Your-Own-Device" Policy is implemented in Junior Form Levels.
Project learning: Project learning activities are to be conducted in all Key Learning Areas.
Moral and Civic Education: school-based moral education lessons, form time, guidance week, gospel week and student civic ambassador program.

Life Planning Education:
To help students understand themselves and set goals for further studies and career aspirations, our school implements school-based life planning education in our forms to meet the development needs of students at different stages of growth. For instance, Life and Career Planning lessons are designed to help students' positioning and set attainable life and career-related goals.
Apart from providing individual and small group counselling for students by the Career Counselling teachers and our Life and Career Counselling Officer, this year, we will continue to cooperate with other organizations to organize various school-based career planning activities such as “Life Simulation”, company visits, and mentorship programs to provide students with learning experiences outside of the classroom to broaden their horizons. We will also encourage students to follow their interests, abilities and aspirations to help set long-term goals and make decisions about further studies or careers. Also, since a career interest test is conducted for all students in the school, a personal guidance for further studies will be arranged for senior forms to let students understand themselves. They will be provided with information and can be responsible for their studies, career goals, and even other areas of life.
