The school attaches great importance to the personal development of students, providing high-quality professional education and an excellent learning environment to cultivate their multiple intelligence development, so that they can become good citizens with knowledge, skills, independent thinking ability, courage to take responsibility and concern for social affairs in the future. Principal Lui Chun Kei In terms of school equipment, curriculum planning, etc., we implement forward-looking and efficient policies to cultivate students to become "Taiwan people" who "look at the world, care for others, respect themselves and others, and go all out".

New facilities support activities to support students’ personal development

Achieving the all-round development of students is inseparable from an excellent learning environment. Therefore, the school has renovated facilities to support the different development needs of students. For example, the library should be renovated into a more beautiful and modern treasure house of knowledge to attract students to read more and absorb knowledge in the library. Since the resumption of full-time classes, the school has organized different reading activities. For example, the school invited the famous playwright Zhuang Meiyan to come to the school to share his creative experience, so that students can get inspiration from them and make progress in writing. The activities are very popular among students. The school updated the auditorium audio and other equipment, and held a variety show, which became part of the students' beautiful campus memories. In addition to basic facilities, the school has also added a STEM room, and with the support of the "Secondary School IT Innovation Laboratory" project, students can participate in a variety of STEAM activities. In addition, the school has also renovated the student activity room to be used for different activities such as dance society, martial arts society, music society, etc., to encourage students to participate in extracurricular activities and develop their potential.

DSE scores have improved significantly; more than 70% of students are admitted to their favorite university

The school's excellent teaching policy has enabled students to consistently perform outstandingly in the Diploma of Secondary Education Examination. Even though the epidemic has affected the past few years, students' academic performance has not deteriorated. This year's performance in the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination has improved significantly compared with last year. The results are encouraging. More than 75.0% of Form 6 graduates were admitted to bachelor's degree programs under the Joint University of Hong Kong Admissions System (JUPAS), an increase of nearly 10% from 64.7% last year. Many of these students have been admitted to the University of Hong Kong, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.

Principal Lui Chun Kei added: "In the past many HKDSEs, students have successfully entered the medical field. This year is no exception. Some students obtained excellent results of 5** in 2 subjects and 5* in 5 subjects, and were admitted to the Bachelor of General Medicine program at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. The school is pleased to see that the students took the DSE examination with perseverance and were not affected by the epidemic. It is very worthy of appreciation." It is because of learning. The school gives students enough opportunities to develop their personal talents so that they can each find their own direction. Therefore, the students' university subjects are very diversified, not limited to medicine, but also include theoretical physics, business administration, systems and technology, computer science and engineering, biomedical engineering, literature and design. In the future, they will shine in their respective fields of expertise.

Pay attention to career planning education and plan life direction in advance

Career planning is related to future prospects and plays an important role in students' choice of subjects and even their personal career planning after completing their studies. Therefore, the school attaches great importance to career planning education so that students can determine their own direction and make personal plans as soon as possible. For example, through the activity "Journey of Life", students can experience the journey from graduation to career choice and then face different "choices" at work within a few hours. This allows students to reflect, thereby helping them to prepare mentally early to "meet" the intersection of life after graduation. Teachers will also provide assistance to students in a timely manner. Principal Lui Chun KeiAdded, in this era, knowledge is important, but wisdom is even more important. Knowing how to choose and judge the most appropriate decision is the wisdom that students need to practice.

In the future, schools will promote financial management education and entrepreneurship education in conjunction with career planning. This year, the school has specially set up relevant groups to allow students to not only know how to plan their personal development path, but also understand the importance of financial management, enhance financial judgment and establish correct financial values. Principal Lui Chun Kei pointed out: "The school also hopes to cultivate students to establish entrepreneurial spirit. Entrepreneurship does not necessarily reflect business, because entrepreneurship includes planning, calculation, and knowing how to analyze the probability of success and the conditions to make a comprehensive plan. We hope that through entrepreneurship education, students will be taught to observe discipline and make the most correct choices when faced with unexpected news."

Efficient and diverse connection policies promote electronic teaching models

As an English-speaking middle school, the school adopts an efficient and diverse transition policy to help middle school students in need adapt to English-Chinese studies. During the summer vacation, the school has arranged English bridging classes for secondary school students, covering subjects that require English teaching, such as mathematics, science, civic economics and social studies. Principal Lui Chun Kei added: "The above subjects are mainly classified as general knowledge subjects at the primary school level, and Chinese is the main teaching language. Therefore, the school will teach new words, related subject terms, question words, etc. in advance to help students better grasp the course teaching content."

In addition, the school makes good use of the electronic teaching model to improve teaching and learning effectiveness and launches a "Bring Your Own Device" policy (BYOD). However, the school understands that not all secondary schools have been exposed to e-learning throughout their lives, so the academic affairs team specially teaches students the skills needed to take notes when using electronic devices to study, so as to help them apply them in their studies. Principal Lui Chun Kei means that writing notes is also a kind of exercise for students to cultivate the habit of applying technology to study. At the same time, when students study English teaching subjects, copying notes can train their English dictation skills and lay a solid foundation for learning.

Values education closely follows Chinese culture and cultivates national identity

Principal Lui Chun Kei believes that the ten primary values and attitudes promoted by the Education Bureau, including "perseverance", "respect for others", "responsibility", "national identity", "spirit of responsibility", "integrity", "caring", "law-abiding", "empathy" and "diligence"), can be closely linked to Chinese culture, cultivate students to establish correct values ​​with the connotation of Chinese culture, and at the same time promote national education. "For example, the characters of diligence and perseverance have been reflected in ancient Chinese books, and students need to uphold this wisdom that has been passed down for thousands of years. As advocated by the Education Bureau, through Chinese culture, we can cultivate students' national identity."

Pay equal attention to activities and studies. Excellent performance in competitions is recognized

Extracurricular activities are an important part of school life. They can not only help students explore their personal potential and show their talents, but also cultivate mutual friendship and personal social collaboration skills through getting along with peers. The school has more than 30 societies and interest groups, covering five major categories: sports, music, interest, service and academics. At the same time, the school encourages students to actively participate in off-campus activities and inter-school competitions, such as inter-school music festivals, dance competitions, etc., to broaden their horizons and increase their learning confidence. The efforts of the students have been recognized by the society. For example, they have won many awards in academic sports competitions; students in the dance group even won the Inter-School Dance Festival’s Excellence Award last year with their dance piece "Water Dragon Song".
