Developing the intellectual capacity of students is one major aspect of school education. Our academic programme that aims towards this goal is divided into 3+3 format, 3 years of foundation programme in junior secondary (Form 1 - Form 3) and 3 years of diploma programme in senior secondary (Form 4 - Form 6). Students at the end of their schooling with us will take part in the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE). Junior Secondary Curriculum Our junior academic curriculum is built on three pillars: languages, sciences & humanities and mathematics & technology. We emphasize the use of English as the medium of instruction and communication in school. All subjects are taught in English, except Chinese subjects, Chinese History and Putonghua. English lessons in Form 1 and Form 2 are conducted in small groups, each led by an individual English teacher. Putonghua is used to teach Chinese in selected classes in junior secondary, based on the language abilities of the students. Our junior curricula in science & humanities focus on exploratory learning and critical thinking. They are designed to prepare the students for the New Senior Secondary curricula and the HKDSE examination, as well as for their further studies locally or overseas thereafter. The curricula for our "4S" subjects (Contemporary Studies, History Studies, Integrated Science and Religious Studies and Ethics) in junior secondary provides the foundation for the students to tackle the new Liberal Studies (LS) subject in the senior secondary curriculum. In mathematics & technology, the formal curricula focus on training the students' logical reasoning. Special consultation time and laboratory sessions after school provide additional opportunities to train the students' mind and skills. The small class policy is also applied to Computer Literacy in Form 1 and Form 2. New Senior Secondary (NSS) Curriculum Besides offering 4 core subjects (English Language, Chinese Language, Mathematics and Liberal Studies), we provide the following subjects to cater for students' diverse interests and learning needs: • Science - Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Combined Science • Social & Humanities - Chinese History, Economics, Geography, History • Others - Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Business Accounting and Financial Studies (BAFS), Chinese Literature, Film & Video Studies (in planning), Spanish (in planning) Students will take 4 core subjects and 3 elective subjects for the HKDSE examination. Besides, we provide the Physical Education, Arts Education and Ethics lessons for their personal development. Opporunities to enhance student's Other Learning Experiences (OLE) are also provided outside regular class time.
