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: Although the school uses Chinese as medium of instruction (CMI), we put a great emphasis on boosting students' English competence. We have been striving our best to develop a conducive English learning environment. The schoolincorporates Extended Learning Activities (ELA) in English into junior form curriculum in Mathematics, Citizenship, Economics and Society, Computer Literacy, Science, Geography, History, Physics, Chemistry and Biology. A combination of strategies has been adopted to promote ELA in the related teaching activities.
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.
School Fees
This is an aided school, the most common type of secondary school in Hong Kong. Aided schools account for approximately 76% of all secondary schools and receive government funding to provide free secondary education. No school fee is charged. By comparison, around 12% are DSS schools, 6% are government schools, and 5% are private schools. Only DSS and private schools generally charge school fees.
School Mission & Governance
It is our belief that every student is blessed with multiple talents. We aspire to help each student to develop their fullest potentials. We endeavour to continually upgrade ourselves in the profession, and with family support, nurture the students to maximise their best potentials. We develop whole person education based on Christian principles, and nurture wholesome life through the preaching of the Gospel. To align with our school motto ‘Crede ut Intellegas’ (Believe in order to know), we facilitate our students to pursue holistic development on spiritual, moral, intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic aspects.
Year of Commencement of Operation: 1978
