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: Our school's language policy is centred on enhancing students' English proficiency by cultivating a vibrant and diverse learning environment. In addition to integrating English elements into lessons through extended learning activities, we actively promote a wide range of English-based programmes that encourage students to use the language in authentic contexts, helping them build confidence and communication skills. Starting from this academic year, we have introduced several AI-powered learning platforms that combine interactive exercises, speech recognition, and personalized assessments.
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 | 30 | 6 | 57 | 6 | 99 |
| 2023 | 30 | 6 | 57 | 6 | 99 |
