Medium of Instruction & Curriculum

English 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: In junior forms, with the exception of Chinese-related subjects, Citizenship, Economics and Society & Religious Education (Christianity), all classes are taught in English. With an emphasis on using English as the medium of instruction, students develop bilingual abilities. Drama classes are arranged and taught in English to boost students' confidence and develop their foundational skills, such as concentration, imagination, observation, team spirit, communication and collaboration skills.

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	50	11	94	10	165
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.
