Review students' learning and progress through periodic assessments, making timely adjustments to improve teaching quality. Promote interdisciplinary learning, integrating values education, STEAM education, self-directed learning, and strategies to cater to diverse learning needs. This aims to boost students' interest in learning, deepen their habits of self-directed learning and problem-solving skills, and cultivate a positive and proactive learning attitude, achieving holistic development.
Development of Major Renewed Emphases of the Primary Education Curriculum : Enhance values education, strengthen STEAM education, and promote cross-curricular learning and interdisciplinary reading. Encourage students to engage in self-directed learning based on their personal interests during their free time to foster balanced physical and mental development and develop lifelong learning abilities. In line with the Education Bureau's policies, establish teacher groups for digital education and science/humanities subjects to train teachers and optimize school-based subject development.
Development of Generic Skills : Through learning activities inside and outside the classroom in various learning areas, students are guided to combine life experiences, use information technology, and apply what they have learned in class to complete learning tasks. By integrating comprehensive learning activities and interdisciplinary reading elements, various common abilities are utilized to extend learning, uncovering students' personal potential and uniqueness.
Cultivation of Proper Values, Attitudes and Behaviours : Promote a whole-school approach to positive education through curriculum integration, inter-grade house activities, Christian values education, and growth lessons at all levels, creating a positive, proactive, caring, and harmonious campus atmosphere.

For senior grades, Chinese, English, and Mathematics are taught in ability-based groups to cater to students with different learning needs.
Whole School Approach to Integrated Education : Our school-based educational psychologist regularly visits the school to provide professional assessments and support for students in need.
