💛 SEN Support

To cater for students with special education needs, the school has established “The Guidance and Learning Support Team” to align with Integrated Education policy.

For example, we tailor IEP, provide adjustments for assessments and examinations, we also deploy teaching assistants to offer extra after school learning support.

🎨 Whole-person Learning

A wide range of extra-curricular activities are provided with the categories of spiritual, social, academic, physical, aesthetic, STEAM, interest and community service.
