🎯 Mission

To work together to create for our pupils a positive and caring environment that will enable them to have a healthy and balanced, physical, cognitive, and psycho-social development. To nurture for our society a group of youths who will use Vos Parate Ut Serviatis as their target in life and in their studies, and passionately and incessantly pursue knowledge, truth and excellence. To lead, contribute and support local development in education.

📚 Approach & Strategies

The 35-minute lessons are designed to let teachers and pupils make good use of the time in implementing learning and teaching activities through cooperative learning. The school also establishes the class teacher time, after lunch activities time and tutorial time. The school encourages pupils to learn through practising. Pupils can construct knowledge through various learning and teaching activities in lessons. The school also arranges life wide learning activities for pupils to experience the learning processes and field studies. Personal-social education train and develop pupils' generic skills in collaboration with other learning areas.

💛 SEN Support

Our school places great importance on the differences in students' abilities. As a result, we implement "Whole School Approach" to provide student support and establish the student support team. It is responsible for coordinating and formulating various policies and measures to cater for individual differences and collaborates with other groups to support students' learning and development. We implement curriculum accommodation, assessment accommodation and individual education plans. Moreover, we set up a variety of talented programmes to the different needs of students. For counselling programmes, there are leaping classes and homework counselling classes.

🎨 Whole-person Learning

We provide students with all-round learning experience in all aspects, through different subject-based activities that allow students to apply what they have learned. Experiencing classes and co-curricular activities are included in the afternoon class period. We also design interdisciplinary courses to provide students with a more interesting and lively learning experience. "Experiential Learning Week" will be held after examinations for students to explore knowledge in specific special topics.
