language_policy	Our school shares the common notion of valuing the importance of developing and raising students’ capabilities and levels of proficiency in both English and Chinese languages in an integrated approach. The creation of an English rich environment through a diverse variety of language learning activities both inside and outside the classroom contexts is a must. In addition, our school provides different learning platforms for our students to explore their potentials and showcase their individual talents in using the language authentically. For example, the English Ambassadors organize and coordinate student-oriented activities for arousing their peers' willingness in using English. At the school level, we adopt a fine-tune policy on English learning in junior forms. In relation to it, English is used as the medium of instruction in some subjects in order to cater for learning needs. To reinforce the notion of expanding students' vocabulary capacities, the collaboration of other subjects is absolutely necessary. All subject heads of other subjects work hand in hand strenuously to introduce English vocabulary and reading texts to increase students’ exposure to English and consolidate their foundation of using English on a knowledge-based basis. Not only can the adoption of English learning holistically facilitate our students to learn the language more effectively and interestingly, but also their self-confidence in using it. Besides, we employ various measures to develop and enhance students’ language proficiency levels in Chinese and Putonghua for enabling them to equip themselves with a higher level of language proficiency for further studies and career development.
