🎯 Mission

Our vision is to provide within a nurturing and stimulating environment a well-balanced Taoist education. In accordance with our motto "Grasping Principles, Cultivating Virtues", we are dedicated to developing students into responsible, knowledgeable and compassionate citizens. Through the all-round moral, intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic development, students are imbued with sound moral values and remarkable academic achievements in holistic education.

📚 Approach & Strategies

1. Create an English-immersive environment to enhance students' interest and proficiency in the language. 2. Promote STREAM (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) education to foster creative problem-solving skills. 3. Develop self-directed learning abilities to encourage active learning and independent inquiry.

💛 SEN Support

The team oversees teaching and homework adjustments, along with subject support and small group teaching for various selected subjects. Our teachers are skilled at adapting plans for teaching and homework, which take into account individual pupil needs. Intervention groups are organised according to pupils' needs and resource availability. Our school includes Enhanced School-based Speech Therapy Service, Individual Education Plans, concentration and sensory training, fine motor skills training, and social and emotional support training. We also provide parent talks and workshops. The team liaisons with school-based educational psychologist provided by the EDB and external agencies to target the needs of SEN students and provide relevant adjustments effectively.

🎨 Whole-person Learning

1. By promoting diversified activities, students can participate widely through rich learning experiences, whilst cultivating their self-management habits. 2. By providing different kinds of intra-school activities, extracurricular activities and training opportunities, students' self-confidence and learning effectiveness are enhanced. 3. Through engaging students with unique potential, interests and abilities to participate in different competitions, students' learning needs are further optimised and met in a well-rounded curriculum. This also supports individual learner needs and a student-centred approach to learning.
