Learning and Teaching Plan |
|
|
(1) Whole-school Language Policy |
:
| The teaching of Chinese Language, Chinese History and Putonghua is conducted in Putonghua. All other academic subjects except English Language are taught in English or Chinese depending on class. We emphasize language education. In addition to allotting more time to teach the two languages, we also provide Language Bridging Course for those students in need. Furthermore, we nurture students to enhance biliterate and trilingual abilities through Chinese and English intensive reading schemes, choral speaking competitions etc. |
(2) Learning and Teaching Strategies |
:
| We emphasize a balanced curriculum of moral, intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic education. We also place great importance in the development of students' creativity, critical thinking and problem-solving skills and the nurturing of their personal character, civic awareness, interpersonal skills and sense of responsibilities. In junior forms we have designed school-based curriculum by means of integration and tailoring in order to motivate students to learn. We also implement morning reading scheme, award for reading, project learning scheme, life-wide learning activities and information technology for interactive learning. |
(3) School-based Curriculum |
:
| 1. Electives: 2X and 3X. Students can select 2 or 3 electives according to their abilities and interests. 2. Curriculum highlights: In junior forms, we have designed school-based curriculum basing on students' abilities in order to meet their needs. |
(4) Development of the Four Key Tasks |
:
| The Reading Team, I.T. Team, Project Learning Team, Moral and Civic Education Team were established to formulate school-based measures to promote the development of the four key tasks. |
(5) Life Planning Education |
:
| Our school strongly believes that Career and Life Planning (CLP) education is an important component of secondary schooling. Its aims are to foster students’ self-understanding, widen their scopes about future study and career choices, develop their skills in goals setting and nurture a reflective habit of mind about their future. Through CLP education, students would be equipped with the knowledge, skills and attitude to make wise choices, in accordance with their interests, abilities and orientations, for their future studies and careers. All these enable students to actualize their goals and make contribution to the society eventually. In order to achieve the above aims, we adopt the 'New Power of Growth Programme' in junior forms, which includes seminars, games and workshops, to help students understand more about themselves and stimulate them to think about their pathways in the future. For senior forms, apart from periodical career and further education talks, we provide students with opportunities to visit post-secondary institutions, participate leadership training camp, and 'Alumni Mentorship Programme'. By means of various channels, we are sure that students can grasp the essence for career and life planning. |
Student Support |
|
|
(1) Whole School Approach to Catering for Learner Diversity |
:
| To cater for student diversity, we would adjust the curriculum and assignment, and revise the teaching methodology and assessment methods. We also provide remedial classes for senior forms students and homework sessions for junior forms students after school and adjusted Chinese Language curriculum for non-Chinese speaking students. In the aspect of gifted education, we organize school-based pull-out approach and off-school support programmes. Gifted students are also nominated to join gifted education programmes organized by the Hong Kong Academy for Gifted Education and tertiary institutions. |
(2) Whole School Approach to Integrated Education |
:
| Our school adopts an appropriate individual learning approach to cater for our students with diverse learning needs and ability. In the Student Support Team, our counselling teachers collaborate tightly with each other in seeking various resources to assist the students with learning and assessments. To develop an inclusive school culture, we also provide special seat arrangement in the classroom, peer support programme, tiered assignment, and special assignment and assessment accommodation for the students in need. We believe an ounce of prevention is worth than a pound of cure in support of student’s emotional development. Besides keeping in close touch with parents and social workers, our school teachers also act like the students’ companions in order to build a deeper connection with them and maintain a safe, healthy learning environment for them. |
(3) Education Support for Non-Chinese Speaking(NCS) Students |
:
|
Our school provides additional support for NCS students to facilitate their learning of 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.; developing school-based Chinese Language curriculum and/or adapting learning and teaching materials; and organising cultural integration activities.
|
(4) Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment |
:
| Assessment is conducted not only in tests and examinations, but also in daily classroom performance, homework and project work in order to assess those abilities that cannot be evaluated from written tests. This can encourage students to participate in diversified learning activities and thus develop their abilities in various aspects. |
(5) Fee Remission |
:
| Our school offers full school fee remission or 1/2 school fee remission. Needy students, including those from families receiving the Comprehensive Social Security Assistance (CSSA) and students receiving financial assistance provided by the Student Financial Assistance Agency (SFAA) could apply for fee remission. - Newly admitted students could apply for the school fee remission after 2 week(s) of commencement of the new school year.
