Medium of Instruction & Curriculum

Chinese is the primary Medium of Instruction (MOI).

Curriculum: Secondary education comprises three years of junior secondary and three years of senior secondary education leading to the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE) Examination.

Teaching Language Policy: To enrich the English learning environment, the School will make the best use of the flexibility of the fine-tuning policy of the MOI to offer school-based and enhancement curricula (English for Life) using English as the MOI in line with the ability and aptitude of the students in the daily life context with a view to laying a sound foundation for students to use English as a medium for life-long learning.

Secondary One Admission

The Secondary School Places Allocation (SSPA) System is Hong Kong's official mechanism for distributing subsidized Secondary One places to primary school graduates. The allocation operates in two distinct, consecutive phases. First, the Discretionary Places (DP) stage allows students to apply directly to individual schools based on academic and interview merits. Second, remaining places are funneled into the Central Allocation (CA) stage, which is subdivided into Part A (unrestricted, territory-wide choices) and Part B (restricted, district-based choices). The table below summarises past years’ allocation figures, including DP places, Central Allocation Part A and Part B places, reserved places, and total places.

Year	DP	CA:A	CA:B	Resv	Total
2020	40	8	76	8	132
2021	40	8	76	8	132
2022	40	8	76	8	132
2023	40	8	76	8	132
2024	40	8	76	8	132
2025	40	8	76	8	132
2026	40	8	76	8	132

Note: SSPA-related figures were obtained from the EDB in December and in April of each year.
