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: The schooluses English as MOI for all classes and all subjects other than Chinese Language, Putonghua, Chinese History, Citizenship, Economics and Society (part), Life and Society (S.3), Citizenship and Social Development, Religious Education and Physical Education. Comprehensive strategy is adopted to enhance students' English proficiency such as creating a language environment conducive to the use of English and implementing language across the curriculum. In addition, Putonghua course is offered in junior form to train our students to be biliterate and trilingual.
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 | 41 | 9 | 78 | 8 | 136 |
| 2021 | 41 | 9 | 78 | 8 | 136 |
| 2022 | 41 | 9 | 78 | 8 | 136 |
| 2023 | 41 | 9 | 78 | 8 | 136 |
| 2024 | 41 | 9 | 78 | 8 | 136 |
| 2025 | 41 | 9 | 78 | 8 | 136 |
