In a bid to foster a solid foundation of English among students, we implement small-class teaching in all forms. We also organize a variety of English activities including English morning assembly, debating, drama, musical, BCK studio, speech festival, master chef workshop, live performance, booth games and quiz competitions. There are also after-school enhancement and remedial programmes to consolidate students' English ability. 2. With the implementation of the fine-tuning of Medium of Instruction, our school makes use of a proportion of lesson time to conduct extended learning activities in English in different subjects in junior forms. Some specific units and themes are taught in English. We also have cross-curricular English enhancement programmes for students to improve their English for future studies in senior form subjects. 3. To further enrich the learning environment, we set up the International Cultural Centre, which allows students to learn English in authentic scenes. With more conversions conducted in English, students will have ample opportunities to practise the language and achieve the best learning results.
