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: The school implements the 'biliteracy and trilingualism' policy, focusing on foundational language learning to cultivate students' expression, communication, and problem-solving skills. Through Language Across the Curriculum (LAC) and collaborative Extended Learning Experience activities with subject groups, students revisit the bilingual terms learned in class during reading sessions and thematic weeks. This approach increases students' exposure to and application of subject-specific terminology in both Chinese and English, thereby enhancing their English vocabulary across different subjects.
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.
