Whole-school Language Policy:
Our school adopts‘ Chinese as the medium of Instruction’ to enhance with the communication and the interaction between teachers and students. Our school puts the stress on ‘bilingualism and multilingualism’ to enhance students' language abilities. To cater for students’ need and boost the effectiveness of teaching and learning, ‘small-class teaching’ in both Chinese and English lessons is implemented in junior forms. Besides, well-equipped Chinese and English resources rooms are established at teachers and students’ disposal. Abundant opportunities are provided for students to give speeches in Chinese, English and Putonghua during the afternoon assembly. In order to polish students’ abilities in using English, specific units in certain subjects are conducted in English in junior forms. This objective is further achieved by organizing English extended learning activities regularly. Not only in junior forms, ‘small-class teaching’ is also adopted in English lessons in senior forms. Co-teaching of our local English teachers and the Native Speaking English Teacher (NET) is organized in all classes and a wide variety of English teaching activities are held constantly, like summer English bridging programs, English week and English drama, etc. On top of those mentioned, to strengthen students’ abilities and confidence in using English, our NET conducts after-school oral classes for students.

Learning and Teaching Strategies:
The school makes an effort in creating a harmonious and orderly learning environment for students. We implement diverse, student-centred teaching methods so as to enhance students' motivation and cater for their learning diversities. It is hoped that they can master and enjoy learning in an active way. There are "small classes" in all forms. Our school provides students with a balanced education which aims at excellence in moral, intellectual, physical, interpersonal and aesthetic aspects. Students are encouraged to develop their abilities and cultivate their moral integrity. The school curriculum emphasizes the importance of language learning, IT and high-order thinking skills. Moreover, we develop our school-based curriculum. To cultivate students' reading habit and their initiative in learning to learn, the whole school, both teachers and all students, are required to participate in reading lessons. Our school library and all subject panels have been working together to implement the reading scheme in an attempt to encourage students to read more and broaden their spheres of interests and horizons.

School-based curriculum:
1. Electives: 2X. In total, 12 elective subjects are provided for students to let them have more choices. Our school also participates in the Network School Scheme and offers Joint School Courses for students.
2. Curriculum highlights: School-based Life and Society, Cross-Subject Project-Learning and Moral Education Curriculum are implemented. Whole-person development is implemented in F.1 to F.4 classes including moral education, life learning, values education and other learning experiences. School-based integrated Art is implemented in F.4 and F.5. Besides school-based extra-curriculum, school Enrichment Program of core subjects are arranged for senior form students.

Development of the Four Key Tasks:
1. The Reading Scheme and the reading programmes conducted by different KLAs and the library enable students to improve their reading skills and strategies. 2. The application of mobile learning, the e-learning platform and the integration of IT into teaching allow students to learn independently, thus becoming life-long and self-directed learners. 3. Cross-subject projects and the Life-wide Learning Activity Day provide a platform for students to apply what they have learnt. 4. From the perspective of Civic and Moral education, our school has incorporated the 10 positive values suggested in the curriculum development council of the EDB into various subjects and school-based activities, such as whole person development in F.1 to F.5 classes every week to cultivate positive values.

Life Planning Education:
Career Life Planning for all students is one of the main concerns of our school. The three elements of career life planning (self-understanding, career exploration and career planning and management) are incorporated into their six-year study life. Class teachers play a significant role in fostering students’ life planning education, providing them with guidance based on their interests, orientations and abilities. Through whole-person development, junior form students can identify their interests and acquire the ability to select appropriate elective subjects. Senior form students can have a better understanding on the diverse pathways and opportunities for secondary graduates and workplaces through Career Life Planning lessons, counseling, seminars, visiting universities and etc. Hence, they can make informed and responsible choices with regards to their learning, career goals and other aspects of life. Our school makes use of resources outside of school, such as taking part in the scheme of Project We Can 2, to provide students with summer internship.
