Primary One Admission

As a Direct Subsidy Scheme (DSS) school, the school manages its own Primary One admissions and does not participate in the centralised Primary One Admission (POA) System used by government and aided schools. Although DSS schools receive government subsidies, they have greater flexibility in setting their admission criteria and may charge school fees. Parents should apply directly to the school and refer to its official website for application dates, selection criteria, interview or assessment arrangements, required documents and school fees.
