📚 Approach & Strategies

Our school organizes interactive learning and teaching activities, increasing student interaction whilst catering for learner diversity. We are a pioneer to introduce the Science and Integrated Humanities subjects to P4-P6. The Science subject highlights scientific theories and concepts. Students learn the latest developments of technologies and apply the ‘design cycle’ model during enquiry learning and experiments. The Integrated Humanities subject guides students to establish a holistic view of history by restructuring the current curriculum and enriching teaching materials. Students’ world view stems from an innate understanding of reality with references from the past to the present, and onwards. The Mathematics subject develops mathematical modelling topics at all levels, enabling st…

school_major_concerns_url https://www.spps.edu.hk
school_major_concerns 1. Fostering students' growth mindset and positive values to live a healthy and confident life. <br>2. Enhancing students' high order thinking and communication skills, integrating STEAM education and history-cultural education, and applying what they have learnt in practice.
learning_and_teaching_plan_url https://www.spps.edu.hk
major_renewed_emphases_pri_edu_curriculum Through the Chinese Culture Day and national security related activities, students learn about and pass down Chinese culture values. To equip students with positive values and attitudes, all panels share the same aim - ‘cultivating students’ growth mindset’. To widen students’ horizons and unlock their potentials, school-based and cross-disciplinary curricula are introduced, providing them with ample opportunities to apply generic skills during and outside their learning time. We actively teach students reading and information literacy skills with extensive reading and lesson activities in which students learn to analyse and use information. Having a healthy lifestyle, body, mental and social well-being is also fundamental. We value students’ long recesses so that they can unwind and enjoy quality time with their peers.
dev_of_generic_skills Our curricula, teaching strategies and assessments aim at developing students' generic skills, such as collaborative and self-management skills. Interdisciplinary activities, such as English yoga activities, enable students to think outside the box and make plausible connections across knowledge areas. To enhance students’ communication skills and boost their confidence, oral presentation skills are taught in the Chinese, English and Putonghua subjects. Students learn the art of persuasion and to make evidence-based arguments.
cultivation_of_proper_values_attitudes_and_behaviours The school recognizes the importance of values education and students’ whole person development. Students’ understanding of the rule of law and national conditions are enhanced via learning and teaching activities, history lessons and mainland study tours, enabling students to understand the importance of safeguarding national security. Nurturing students’ positive values and attitudes is crucial. The ‘play area’ in the classrooms enables students to develop social skills and understand the importance of following rules. Our school has developed a school-based curriculum framework for information literacy. Students learn how to use information technology ethically by taking part in teaching and learning activities from different subjects.

whole_school_approach_cater_for_learner_diversity Learning support and remedial classes are organized to cater for learners' diversity. School-based Educational Psychologists, Speech Therapists, Social Workers and SENCO work together to care for students with special educational needs. Furthermore, parents' workshops are regularly organized. Pull-out programmes and whole-class programmes are established to enhance the gifted students. Different training courses are carried out to fully explore and develop the potential of students with different talents.
curriculum_tailoring_and_adaptation The essence of classical Chinese literature and children literature are incorporated in the Chinese curriculum. With the 'reading-to-writing' programme, the school aims to enhance students' creativity and literary appreciation skills. Classic readers and other reading programmes are incorporated in the English curriculum to promote reading across the curriculum. The mathematical modelling topics in the Mathematics curriculum enable students to apply mathematical concepts to solving real-world problems. The General Studies curriculum is STEAM-based, which cultivates students' creativity and problem-solving skills through hands-on and project-based activities.

home-school_co-operation The PTA regularly organizes different activities for students and parents, like the spring picnic, the Chinese New Year reunion dinner and the Christmas party. Parent-volunteers are very supportive of school development. They do storytelling in the classroom and help out in Sports Day.
school_ethos We have high expectations on students' discipline and academic performance. Students are well-mannered, humble, well-behaved and interested in learning. They are motivated to participate in various extra-curricular activities and social services. We also have a high reputation among parents.
