Development of Major Renewed Emphases of the Primary Education Curriculum : Please refer to the details of Annual School Plan and School Report. https://www.sjps.edu.hk/school-plan-report-guideline/
Development of Generic Skills : Generic skills constitute the foundation in learning and enable pupils to learn effectively. Our school develops the generic skills of pupils through the learning and teaching of different subjects and different learning areas.
Cultivation of Proper Values, Attitudes and Behaviours : The "Positive Education Programme" is launched to help students develop self-efficacy, sense of belonging as well as positive values and attitudes. To nurture a caring environment, the MCE and Personal Development curriculum have been refined to strengthen the mental growth of the students. Besides, the "Buddy Time" Scheme, the School Guidance Prefect Scheme and the Understanding Adolescent Project are devised to boost self-confidence, and instil leadership qualities and resilience in the students. To ensure an effective implementation of the aforesaid schemes and programmes, teachers are equipped with the necessary skills through a variety of seminars and workshops; whereas parents are provided with different channels to acquire positive parenting skills and enhance their positive values and attitudes towards their children.
Student Support
Whole School Approach to Catering for Learner Diversity : Classes for the gifted and the less able pupils.
Whole School Approach to Integrated Education : To help students realise their potentials, the Student Support Team and Student Guidance Team plan and implement four main programmes: the Personal Development Programme, the Whole School Approach Guidance Project, the Josephian Scheme, and the Big Brother Scheme. On top of these, many individual counselling sessions, workshops and seminars are launched to foster students' personal growth.
With the 'School-based Speech Therapy Service', our speech therapy programmes have been developed. Speech & Language Therapists are specialists in the identification, assessment and support of individuals with speech, language and communication needs.
Education Support for Non-Chinese Speaking(NCS) Students : Our school provides additional support for NCS students to facilitate their learning of Chinese: providing after-school support programmes in learning Chinese; appointing additional teacher(s)/teaching assistant(s) to support NCS students' learning of Chinese; arranging intensive Chinese learning and teaching mode(s), e.g. pull-out learning if necessary, split-class/group learning, etc; and organising activities to create an inclusive learning environment in the school.
Curriculum Tailoring and Adaptation : Curriculum Tailoring and Adaptation are introduced to cater for the needs of students' individual differences and societal changes.
Home-school Co-operation and School Ethos
Home-School Co-operation : SJPS and parents are partners in educating our next generation. We aim at developing the lifelong learning attitude and capacity of our pupils in school. Parents support school in various ways, like taking up the role of assistants in the library. To initialize school into a good learning environment, the Parent-Teacher Association publishes a PTA newsletter annually and arranges a series of activities and various seminars for parents and students throughout the school year.
School Ethos : Home-school co-operation can enhance the effectiveness of school administration and students' learning. We believe that in co-operation with parents, we work to shape the minds and characters of pupils not only with skills and knowledge, but also positive attitudes and values. The Discipline Team and the Student Guidance Team work hand in hand for the well being of pupils. We believe that prevention, development and remedial work are of equal importance.
Future Development
School Development Plan : 1. The School’s major concerns of 2024-2027 primarily focus on nurturing students’ whole-person development, civic responsibility and social skills. We aim to create an environment that supports students in becoming well-rounded individuals who make positive contributions to society and the world.

Inspired by the biblical teaching from Luke 10: 25-37, seminars and workshops will be organised to equip teachers with the knowledge to nurture students’ positive values, compassion and interpersonal skills. Elements promoting interpersonal skills and empathy will also be integrated into both formal (school subjects) and informal curricula (service learning programmes).

2. Our school also focuses on developing students as global citizens who demonstrate love for their hometown, home country, and the planet. By promoting adherence to school regulations and local legislation, a sense of law-abidingness can be instilled in the students. Reward schemes, mediation and leadership training workshops are adopted and organised to reinforce positive behaviours. Curriculum development, exchange programmes and diverse educational experiences will deepen students' national identity and appreciation of their cultural heritage.

Through these initiatives, SJPS seeks to empower students to embrace their roles as responsible global citizens who contribute positively to their communities and beyond.
Teacher Professional Training & Development : Teacher Professional Training & Development are practicalized according to the needs of students, referencing to education reforms.
Others : English and academic scholarships, study tours (e.g. Japan, Singapore, Mainland etc.) and Inter-school Competitions (e.g. Good People Good Deeds Writing Competition, Hong Kong Science Olympiad for Primary School, Hong Kong Young Writers Awards etc.)
