  • CONTRACT TEMPLATE Crystal
    The Hong Kong Education System The essentials of HONG KONG Schooling Systems Explained ITS Education Asia www.itseducation.asia The Hong Kong Education System Hong Kong operates a vibrant and competitive international and local school sector with schools offering curricula of the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, Canada, Singapore, Hong Kong and the International Baccalaureate. Many schools also identify with a particular country (such as Japan, Singapore, Canada or France) and offer separate English and foreign-language sections. There are also an increasing number of private independent schools that emphasize a compulsory Mandarin Chinese component, reflecting Mandarin’s growing influence in Hong Kong. LOCAL SCHOOL SYSTEM There are three main types of local schools – government schools which are operated by the Government; aided schools which are fully subvented by the Government but run by voluntary bodies; and private schools, some of which receive financial assistance from the Government. Government and aided schools deliver a curriculum recommended by the Government. They offer free primary and secondary education. Primary Schools Primary schooling starts at the age of six and there are 6 years of schooling at the primary level. There are three modes of operation in the primary schools, namely AM, PM and whole-day. Encouraged by the Government, most primary schools are adopting whole-day operation. Admission to Primary One is through the Discretionary Places (DP) stage and the Central Allocation (CA) stage. At the DP stage, parents can apply for admission to only one government or aided primary school of their preference, and admission is based on the criteria prescribed by the EDB (Education Department Bureau).
