Learning and Teaching Plan

Whole-school Language Policy:
English is used as the medium of instruction in most of the subjects in our school. Equal emphasis is also placed on the learning of Chinese and Putonghua to help our student be biliterate and trilingual.

Learning and Teaching Strategies:
Our curriculum is designed in accordance with the guidelines and the rationale of the education reform, the interest of our students, and the needs of the society. The great variety of subjects and extra-curricular activities offered helps our students develop multiple intelligences and independent learning skills. Teachers organize appropriate learning activities in and out of school to help our students hone their generic skills and increase their motivation to learn, so as to become self-directed learners. Meanwhile, students learn seriously through different methods such as discussion, and peer and self evaluation. The interaction between students and with teachers allows our students to enrich their knowledge while developing interllectually, morally and spiritually prepared to face the challenges of life and society, and responsive to human needs.

School-based curriculum:
1. Electives: 3X. S.4 students have to study three elective subjects, and may also study Ethics & Religious Studies or Music, Japanese, French, Korean or Spanish. S.5 students may drop one elective or take an Applied Learning course according to their own needs.

With the assistance of the IT Committee, the renovation of the MMLC will be completed in 2022. IT resources, such as tablets, the e-learning platform and online discussion forums can be more effectively used to facilitate learning and teaching.
To promote the acquisition of independent enquiry skills, S.1 and S.2 students do independent research and thereby learn the skills for doing cross-curricular investigation study during STEM/STEAM projects while S.3 students have social science research during IES lessons and project learning during STEM lessons.
Aiming to provide whole person education, we put much emphasis on moral and civic education.

Life-wide Learning (including Five Essential Learning Experiences to be provided through Key Learning Areas, extra-curricular activities, co-curricular activities, etc.):
We strive to help our students unleash their potential, improve their adaptability and leadership skills, acquire better social skills, and develop their concern for others and the society. We regularly organize choral speaking, dance, music, English drama, sports and other activities in school and encourage students to join various external competitions. Our students have to join at least 1 club out of more than 50 clubs in school each year to develop their interest. The two Other Learning Experiences (OLE) lessons per cycle also facilitate students' development and help to stretch their limits. Our Service Scheme also encourages our students at different levels to serve our community.
