language_policy The school is implementing the bilingual education policy with the aims of fostering students’ proficiency in both spoken and written Chinese and English and oral competence in Putonghua. To enhance students' bi-literacy and tri-lingualism, we have two Native-speaking English Teachers and two Putonghua teachers. There are facilities like STEAM Lab, AI Lab, Communication Arts Centre and Chinese Cultural Center, and activities like English Mornings, Drama Festival and Language Arts Festival to arouse students' interest in improving their languages. Several subjects use Chinese as the teaching medium with extended learning activities in English.
school_based_curriculum 1. Electives: 2X and 3X. <br> X1: Information & Communication Technology, Chinese Literature, Chemistry, Economics, History, Geography<br> X2: Business, Accounting & Financial Studies, Biology, Chinese History, Information & Communication Technology, Physics, Visual Arts<br> X3: Economics, Biology, M1, Theme-based Learning Curriculum, Applied Learning, Japanese Language, Health Management and Social Care<br> 2. Curriculum highlights: School-based Curriculum (S.1-S.3)<br>(1) Chinese Language: (a) Literary or classical Chinese text teaching is conducted for S.1-S.3; (b) Virtues and passion for culture are to be cultivated and knowledge of literature is to be acquired through provision of contexts emphasizing the process of learning, internalization, reflection and application. Our school's Chinese Language Department previously participated in The Chinese University of Hong Kong's “Jockey Club VR Project for Chinese Language Education”. This project employs virtual reality (VR) technology to foster students’ autonomy in learning, improve their Chinese reading and writing proficiency, cultivate a passion for Chinese literature, and deepen their empathy for local communities by immersing them in literature-rich VR environments that support close observation of specific locations and communities.<br>(2) English Language: The “From-end-to-beginning” approach is adopted, treating the expected outcome in HKDSE English for senior formers as the basis of effective bridging from junior form curricula at different stages. <br>(3) Citizenship, Economics and Society: The curriculum aims to help students to achieve self-understanding and a good awareness of the current issues and changes in Hong Kong, China and other parts of the world through “e-learning” and ‘Enquiry Learning’.

whole_school_approach_cater_for_learner_diversity The school is run with Christianity. All our teachers care and teach students without discrimination. To care students' mixed abilities, we offer small-group teaching for Chinese, English and Mathematics, and enhancement and remedial courses. The school has set up Student Support Team to provide support service to Special Educational Needs (SEN) students.
support_for_non_chinese_students Our school provides additional support for NCS students to facilitate their learning of Chinese: arranging intensive Chinese learning and teaching mode(s), e.g. pull-out learning if necessary, split-class/group learning, etc.; and organising activities to create an inclusive learning environment in the school. Diversified activities and adjustments to teaching are provided in support of non-Chinese speaking (NCS) students to facilitate their integration in school life and the mainstream curriculum. Through participation in cultural and language activities, NCS students can gain authentic experience for a good understanding of local and Chinese cultures. Adjustments to the curriculum alongside the “pull-out teaching mode” and after-school learning support class are provided to improve NCS students’ foundation knowledge of the Chinese language.
adaptation_for_learning_and_assessment Besides two uniform tests and two term-end examinations, we conduct a continuous assessment covering classroom performance, coursework, project learning reports, school based assessment and extensive reading reports.
home_school_co_operation Other than organizing talks for parents and parent-child activities, our Parent-teacher Association sponsors 'Language Improvement Awards' and a number of English Enhancement activities.

Every teacher is involved in discipline and counseling work. We have two class teachers to take care each class, enabling a co-operation between teachers and students to develop a good school ethos and an enjoyable campus. We also have discipline prefects, tutorial classes and enhancement schemes for Chinese, English and Mathematics. Besides, we have a counseling team, a school pastor, 2 school social workers, an education psychologist to take care of students' psychological and religious development.
