school_organisation It is the School's culture to encourage "whole school participation". In the course of proactive teaching, counseling and disciplinary work, all teachers of the School have been contributing to the establishment of a rigorous but caring school image. Various working groups work out measures in accordance with the set directions.

language_policy Having Chinese as the medium of instruction, the School provides Cantonese teaching across all junior forms. Yet, the school emphasizes greatly the development of bi-literacy and tri-lingualism. The school has made good use of the policy of the EDB's Fine-tuning the Medium of Instruction for Secondary Schools and has allocated 25% of the teaching time to implementing English extended learning activity in junior forms in subjects including Mathematics, Integrated Science, History, Geography, Computer Literacy and Business, in a gradual and progressive manner. It is in our intention that the extensive exposure and application of English language can help build up students' ability in English language learning, and prepare them for their further studies and careers. Furthermore, our school is keenly creating an English rich language environment by means of putting in new policies and activities such as the School English Day and Newspaper Reading Session on Friday, with the hope that students can all acquire the bi-literacy and tri-lingualism effectively.

whole_school_approach_cater_for_learner_diversity To fully cater to individual differences, our school reallocates resources to open additional classes—adding one more class than originally assigned for Secondary 1–3. From the 2024–2025 school year, Secondary 4–6 students are progressively grouped by language proficiency, enabling teachers to better address learning needs. Our students make good use of various e-learning tools alongside pre- and post-lesson self-directed strategies, integrating flipped classrooms, interactive e-learning platforms, and AI platforms. These are implemented before and after lessons, during regular classes, and in holidays to both stretch high achievers, support those who need reinforcement, and enhance students’ self-directed learning.

We also earned the Thematic Grand Award for “Promoting Career Planning” in 2017, and Merit Awards in 2018 and 2019.<br>In recent years, we have launched training initiatives such as the Discipline Cadet Program, Civic Ambassador Pioneer Team, and National Ambassador scheme to develop students’ leadership and help them become responsible citizens. Through the “One Student, One Post” school service policy and various volunteer programs, students learn self-discipline, rule compliance, and to lead by example throughout their growth.

With the whole-school participation and the efforts of the Student Support Team, our school aims to inspire students' diversified potentialities so that they are keen to face new challenges and develop a proactive attitude to plan for their future life.
teacher_pro_training_and_dev The Teacher Professional Development Committee promotes teacher professional training and development. The teachers in our school actively participate in various in-service training courses, education conferences and seminars to keep them abreast of the latest development of education including the changes brought by the senior secondary curriculum.
