🎯 Mission
With a mission to spread the gospel and share the truth of the Holy Bible, we strive to provide students with whole-person education - emphasizing a balance in spiritual, moral, intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic development - so that they will glorify God, love others and become leaders of society in the future.
📚 Approach & Strategies
1. Our curriculum is innovative and flexible. We design Module Curriculum which includes 'Drama', 'Community Service', 'STEAM ', 'Chinese Culture', 'PE', 'Music' and 'Art' modules. 2. We emphasize reading, life-wide learning and promote self learning. 3. We attach great importance to developing students' creativity and STEAM education.
💛 SEN Support
1. Our school has set up a Student Support Team, which adopts a "whole-school participation" model, flexibly utilizes the "Learning Support Grant" and integrates existing resources. Through the "three-tier support model", it provides learning support, social training groups and other support to students, caters for students' different learning needs, and promotes an inclusive campus culture. 2. Our school uses school-based educational psychologists and external organizations to help parents, teachers and students understand and enhance their knowledge of mental health.
