🎯 Mission
St. Stephen's Girls' Primary School is a Christian school which holds the mission to provide Whole-person Education in Christian faith, and to nurture pupils' physical, mental as well as spiritual development in a balanced way. It aims to help students develop their potentials and guide them towards a perfect character.
📚 Approach & Strategies
Our school aims at providing a balanced curriculum which develops pupils morally, intellectually, kinesthetically, interpersonally, aesthetically and spiritually. High emphasis is put on the development of problem-solving skills and creative thinking skills. We also emphasize the development of bi-literacy and tri-lingualism. Various activities are introduced to develop reading habits and reading enjoyment among pupils. We believe that each pupil is unique. We aim at developing pupils' strengths and stretching their potentials. We make flexible use of the afternoon to arrange reading lessons and cross-curricular activities for pupils.
💛 SEN Support
Our Student Support Team consists of SENCO, teachers, the school-based speech therapist, the school social worker and teacher assistants. We make use of the 'Learning Support Grant' to deploy teacher assistants to guide pupils in morning reading and provide in-class support. The grant is also used for buying services for afternoon small group activities and purchasing teaching resources. Related measures for pupils with special learning needs include adjustments on homework and assessment, and implementing 'Individual Education Plan'.
