Foster curriculum development to improve learning effectiveness 2. Foster positive attitudes and encourage students to go upstream School Management Organisation: Under the school-based management framework, teachers and parents participate directly in school decision-making. The collective wisdom of school managers helps improve the teaching and learning environment as well as the effectiveness of students' learning. All managers work together to ensure better school management and enhance the performance of our school. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: In 2007, the Incorporated Management Committee of the school has been established. With the spirit of school-based management, different stakeholders like the school sponsoring body, the principal, teachers, parents, alumni and independent members take part in the decision-making so as to enhance the quality and effectiveness of education. School Green Policy: Our school strives to promote environmental education. In order to arouse the awareness of environmental protection among students, our school has organised various activities by which students have become more concerned about the well-being of the globe. The effort and achievements of our school are widely recognised. Owing to our contribution, we have won School Honours Award under Schools Environmental Award Scheme for 5 consecutive years, Gold Award and Devotion of Promotion of Sustainable Development Honours Award(in recognition of receiving the SD Community Project Award for six consecutive years) of the Sustainable Development School Award Programme, and also the Bronze Award in the Hong Kong Awards for Environmental Excellence(Schools: Secondary). We have gained the enduring honour of "Green School". Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Since the establishment of our school, we have persisted in mother-tongue teaching. To enhance students' capability of handling trilingualism is also our school major concern. We firmly believe that mother tongue is the most effective medium of instruction for our students by which they can fully acquire the subject knowledge and develop higher order thinking. Concurrently, English language learning is always a top priority. We infuse the English language into the junior form curricula. We are devoted to creating a favourable English learning environment for our students. By launching different English learning programmes, the English standards of our students have greatly improved. Learning and Teaching Strategies: We received the honour of Chief Executive's Award for Teaching Excellence (2016/2017) in “Science Education Key Learning Area”. To improve learning effectiveness through the enhancement of students' self-learning skills is our school major concern. Besides the implementation of e-learning, we also create student learning communities and equip students with learning strategies. Our teachers are responsive, hardworking, dedicated and innovative. Significant upgrading in the professional qualification of teachers can be seen. The professional development and mentorship schemes of our school encourage peer lesson observation, collaborative lesson preparation, lesson study and other informal sharing among our teachers. Catering for students' diverse learning needs, we adjust the curriculum according to students' individual differences. Cross-curricular integration is implemented to reduce overlapping content and make good use of the teaching resources. The junior secondary subject, Liberal Studies, aims at developing students' thinking skills and bridging the senior secondary curriculum. Besides, all junior subject teachers have to teach students the related English technical terms and provide supplementary English materials. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X and 3X. Our students are given proper guidance to decide on the elective subjects that best suit their interests, aptitudes and abilities. 2. Curriculum highlights: The junior secondary subjects from different key learning areas aim at developing students' thinking skills and bridging the senior secondary curriculum.

Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: Apart from fostering curriculum development and the enhancement & remedial work at different learning stages, we also cater for student diversity by collaborative teaching and varying instructional grouping, especially in Chinese, English and Mathematics. Besides, the adaptation of the curriculum, the design of classroom activities and the arrangement of extended learning activities as well as the peer learning groups after class time are the measures to enable more students' needs to be attended to. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: The members of the Learning Support Team include the special educational needs coordinator, SEN support teacher, a social worker, an educational psychologist, a vice-discipline master, an integrated education steward, an English teacher and a Liberal Studies teacher. Our school is committed to developing an inclusive culture. The “Whole School Approach” is adopted to support the students with special educational needs, through which appropriate differentiated support is provided to strengthen students’ learning effectiveness and to help students participate in school life. Thus, homework and assessment accommodations are provided according to the needs of the students.

Our school has utilized the Learning Support Grant to hire additional staff, including a counsellor and an integrated education steward, to support students in need. In addition, the grant is also used to obtain outside services for the students with related SEN. Education Support for Non-Chinese Speaking (NCS) Students: Our school provides additional support for NCS students to facilitate their learning of Chinese: In the form of after-school support, one student is provided with educational support to learn Chinese. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: To review the learning and teaching effectiveness, assignments are designed according to the teaching and learning activities, and also students' different capabilities. Various modes of continuous assessment are used in different subjects. Summative assessments are carried out through one uniform test and two term examinations annually.

Remarks Our school is the first Professional Development School of Education Bureau to support non-Chinese speaking students and is now a leading school under the Quality Education Fund Thematic Networks (QTNs) by the EDB. In co-operation with the HKU Education Faculty, a 3-year scheme was launched to design a school-based Chinese curriculum. To suit the special learning needs of non-Chinese and S.1 students, smaller class size was adopted in some subjects through grouping so as to allow students to learn comprehensively. We offer other languages (e.g. Japanese, French, Spanish and Urdu etc) to S.4-S.6 students, and when they are in S.5, they can also choose an extra subject from Applied Learning.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: School Major Concern 1: To enhance learning capacity and to optimize teaching strategies for students’ academic achievement. School Major Concern 2: To build a caring culture with positive and spiritual values as a step towards success. School Major Concern 3: To establish a close connection with the professional community and to create multiple pathways for various future careers. School Management Organisation: Incorporated Management Committee was established on 1 August 2015. The School Policy Execution Committee, parents and alumni will work together to implement the school-based management under the Incorporated Management Committee. Administration: the Principal and School Policy Execution Committee carry out the administration work under which we have the Academic Committee, Student Affairs Committee, General Affairs Committee. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: Members from the Alumni Association and Parent- Teacher Association attend the Incorporated Management Committee meetings. School Green Policy: 1. Apart from growing trees and flowers in the school campus, we also have a herb garden, a mushroom farm, and an orchid garden in our campus. 2. We incorporate environmental learning into our school syllabus. 3. We completed the plan of planting grass on the top floor of our school main building with sponsorship from the Geography Department of the University of Hong Kong and HSBC, so that different departments of our school can carry out environmental study activities. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: To cater for the language need of NCS students, English is being adopted as the medium of instruction (Except Chinese Language, Chinese History) for them. Learning and Teaching Strategies: '4 Steps for the success of a Lesson" and "Easy Start, Little Steps, More Activities, Instant Feedback" in teaching are the two whole school teaching strategies. To match the features of the subjects, the school selects different learning strategies for students like e-learning, 'bring your own device programme' or flipped classroom which helps students develop the attitude for self-learning and self-exploration. Students gain knowledge through group tasks that focus on co-operation. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X and 3X. We provide the following elective subjects: Japanese, Urdu, Basic Mandarin for non-Chinese students. 2. Curriculum highlights: We implement school-based curriculum according to the development of school. For example, we co-operated with the HKU Education Faculty to design a school-based Chinese curriculum to improve teaching and learning. Development of Key Tasks: 1. Reading to learn: morning reading, extensive reading, book fairs, good book suggestions by students. 2. Interactive learning through information technology: students can surf the Internet to enrich their learning in classrooms or special rooms which are equipped with IT facilities. 3. Project Learning: To go ally with the life-wide learning day, students are equipped with the project learning skill so as to enhance the inquisitive power of junior forms students. 4. Moral and Civic Education: to develop self-understanding through morning assembly, weekly assembly, class-teacher periods, etc. Career and Life Planning: New Senior Secondary Curriculum (NSS) focuses on students’ ongoing life planning and lifelong personal fulfillment. Our school incorporated these themes through cooperation with the business sector by launching the Professional Paths’ Scheme several years ago. Students are given the opportunity to do an internship at Hon & Co., Solicitors & Notaries. Students were actively involved and gained great confidence through the scheme. They had a variety of opportunities exploring various trial work placements such as a law firm, accounting firm and NGO last year. It helped our students plan for their future career and progress towards a chosen profession. Our students come from different countries. In addition to assisting them in enrolling in local and overseas universities, we are the Centre of Excellence of Admission for three prestigious mainland universities (Beijing Foreign Studies University, Southern Medical University and Guangdong University of Foreign Studies). We even signed a cooperation agreement with 4 universities in Taiwan and 1 university in the USA. A Through-train programme is offered by Caritas Institute of Higher Education (towards ‘St. Francis University’). Students can enroll at the universities, with which our school has a collaboration partnership with. Apart from enrolling at several prestigious universities in Hong Kong, including the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Baptist University and the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, our students are admitted by Beijing Foreign Studies University(Business Administration), Sun Yat-sen University(Business Administration), Guangdong University of Foreign Studies(International Business), Southern Medical University(M.B.B.S.) and Jinan University(Journalism(International Journalism) these past few years.

We set up after-school learning support curriculum tutorials for new migrants, non-Chinese speaking students and senior secondary students to increase their confidence in learning. To cope with the increasing number of non-Chinese speaking students and the language barrier between them and local students, each form is divided into different groups for Chinese and English tutorial classes. S.1 to S.6 non-Chinese speaking students have Chinese lessons with students from different forms. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: One of the aims of integrated education is to help our students/teachers/parents recognize, accept and respect individual differences, and even celebrate differences. This serves as a driving force for personal growth and the development of an inclusive campus. Given the diverse student needs in all regular classrooms, teachers can no longer adopt one single teaching approach for all students, nor can they expect all students to attain the same academic standard. We adopt various accommodation measures to facilitate the development of students’ multiple intelligence： 1. Support groups have been set up to help the SEN students. 2. Our educational psychologist, together with our social workers, organised activities for students with specific learning difficulties. 3. Big Brother & Sister Scheme. 4. Sunshine Teacher. 5.

Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: Two exams and one uniform test are conducted each year, 1st semester exam (40%), uniform test (20%) and 2nd semester exam (40%). There is also continuous assessment in each subject which assesses students’ learning attitude in class, assignments and projects to motivate students. Remedial classes and tutorial classes are conducted after school to cater for students' individual needs. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: The parent representatives attend the IMC conferences. The PTA organizes parents’ education seminars, counselling on further studies, outdoor activities and sightseeing for parents and students. Publications report different activities organized by Parents and Teachers Association and our school publish parents’ voices and suggestions. School Ethos: 1. Our school was honourably awarded "Outstanding School in Caring School Award Scheme 2014" (Nearly 300 schools participated). 2. ‘Sunshine Teacher’ for S.1 classes: Teachers meet students regularly to understand their adaptation to secondary school life and learning situations. 3. Support groups have been set up to help the SEN students. 4. The Flying Merit Award Scheme encourages students towards good performance. 5.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: Enhancing Learning and Teaching Effectiveness through Assessment Analysis Nurturing Whole-Person Quality by Extended Experiences School Management Organisation: In the spirit of 'Staying transparent and playing fair and square', the school-based management policy is in full swing. The Administration has been functioned effectively with the support of the Incorporated Management Committee, School-based Management Committee – served by the sub-committees, namely Academic Affairs, Nurturing and Special Responsibilities. The operation is further consolidated with the active involvement of the PTA. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: The school has established the Incorporated Management Committee including School Sponsoring Body Managers, Teacher Managers, Parent Managers, Alumni Manager and Independent Manager. School Green Policy: We are an environmental school highlighting harmony between human and nature: Roof-top Garden, Environmental Resources Centre, Green House and Green Corner. The Wind-turbine Street Lighting, set-up with donation of funding ~HKD100,000 by HK Electric Co. Ltd., provides electricity for the school entrance alarm and a nearby street-light. The school uses recycling materials for all school luncheon provisions. A team of student ambassadors with the mission of advocating environmental concerns are activating programs on 'No Air-con Day'; 'Individual Plant Care' and talks on environmental concerns. The school is honored with recognition of awards from various international organizations regarding our 'sustainable' efforts on our 'greening' school projects. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: English language will diffuse through all curriculum planning and implementation on the junior levels other than Chinese Language, Chinese History and Putonghua lessons. English is the medium of instruction for certain classes of S2 and S3 for Mathematics and Integrated Science and that of S5 to S6 for Mathematics, Mathematics (Extended Part), Biology and Chemistry. To enrich and strengthen the acquisition of English in a life-like and rich learning environment, non-curriculum measures are put in place to expose our students to the context of English Day Camp, weekly English Day activities, English Passport Incentive Scheme to encourage active and interactive communication and other supportive curriculum measures designed by the whole-school teaching team. Putonghua training for Cantonese speaking students is enhanced through school enrichment programmes similar to that of English on top of school curriculum. Regular publications of the English magazine and Chinese anthology have also extended students’ learning experiences. Learning and Teaching Strategies: On the whole school planning level, a three-dimensional approach is put in place an integrated bundle of knowledge, generic skills and values of learning. Tailor-made materials are designed to ensure lessons are conducted effectively in the cycle of ‘preview – showcase – discussion – feedback’ for the success of both teachers and students. Active learning is the ultimate goal for individual students with the assistance of state-of-the-art learning equipment and technologies - classroom computers; projectors, smart boards and WiFi900 Scheme. Internet connection enables interactions between teachers and students in all learning circumstances. To enhance students’ learning effectiveness, learning foundation is built on learning strategies which focus on note taking techniques, revision necessities, research abilities and memory-through-understanding approaches. Within the strength of traditional subjects in the junior level, elementary substances extracted from the senior forms such as the subject of Liberal Studies for junior form students could open up the learning horizon of young learners. They are prepared for critical thinking on close-ups of social issues and world affairs. Hence, solid foundation is established for more challenging school-based studies and researches in the senior form curriculum. Reading is the backbone of self-enhanced studies that are required in tertiary level and social demands. Secondary 1 students are exposed to teaching of scanning, skimming and identifying gist while reading in addition to reading promotion programmes like Star Reading Programme, reading reports and morning assembly sharing. Learning diversity is being taken care of through ‘school-based learning materials’ of all subjects with core and extended learning objectives clearly presented. Constant reviews of materials and absorption speed of students would enhance academic achievements and narrow the gap between different learning abilities and achievements. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X. Include: Chinese History, History, Geography, Economics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Business, Accounting & Financial Studies, Information and Communication Technology, Visual Arts. 2. Curriculum highlights: Bridging Course: our school offers Chinese, English and Mathematics Bridging Course for S.1 students. After-school Tutorials: With the support from After School Care Programme, our school offers school-based and district-based after-school tutorials. The tutorials offer Chinese, English and Mathematics enhancement courses for our junior form students. Project-based Learning: Liberal Studies lessons are included in our junior form curriculum to boost up their skills on doing studies. Arts Development: our Chinese and Western orchestra, Choir, Marching band, guitar and dancing groups offers varieties of learning experience. Cultural Studies: we organize different China or overseas study groups for students to broaden their horizons. Life Planning: our Career Day and High Table Dinner bring different information on studying and working to our students. Development of Key Tasks: Moral and Civic Education are major cores of our education values on top of academic excellence. We have designed our in-school ‘Yes I can’ programme to encourage persistence and commitment on good deeds. Learning through reading is effective in promoting writing skills and a good life-long habit in self- enrichment. Through ‘Reading across curriculum’ projects and various promotional awards, students are fully exposed to the joy of reading and hence their writing skills and critical thinking skills would undoubtedly be raised. Project learning strategies are implemented through museum visits and outdoor activities of all nature. Through careful groupings and guidance involving all teachers, students learn all kinds of generic skills as required in their junior years of S.1 and S.2. Teaching and learning resources are well documented in the e-class intranet for easy access for both teachers and students. On line teaching resources are made available through electronic platform and the rich stock of information and accessibility have combined to generate inter-curricular discussions on integration and learning effectiveness. This has opened a genuine possibility of teaching cross fertilization of all nature in the years to come. Career and Life Planning: The career team puts a great emphasis on developing the life skills of students through organizing various activities such as Career Day, High Table Dinner, Talks on interview and communication skills, and Cross-border Visits. The school expects that these schemes can allow students together with their families to map out proper career paths and get the latest information about further study and the work environment. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: Catering for learner diversity does not mean expecting a uniform standard of learning outcomes among different students. Each student is different. Understanding why students are not able to learn efficiently and effectively is important in order to provide the best support to our students. In order to make the most out of the optimum teacher-student ratio, group teaching both small classes and remedial groupings according to students’ ability has been adopted. What’s more, school-based learning materials of different tiers have been devised so as to allow students to experience success. In addition, special examination arrangements have been adopted for students with special needs so that students are encouraged to perform as best as they can. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: Our school has attained the requirements of EDB’s “Teacher Professional Development Framework on Integrated Education”. Through the utilisation of professional evaluation or outcomes of Pre-Secondary One Hong Kong Attainment Test, students with special educational needs will initially be differentiated. With the support of Integrated Education Committee, the school speech therapist, EDB’s audiological services and speech therapy service are always accessible to students who are in need. In addition, the Learning Support Grant such as School-based After-school Learning and Support Programmes fund, Diversity Learning Grant or Newly-arrived Children Subsidy have been utilised to provide school-based pull-out programmes for the concerned students. 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; appoints 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; organising cultural integration activities; and hiring additional manpower and/or translation/interpretation services to facilitate the communication with parents. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: Standard assessments such as uniform tests and examination have been carried out to follow each student’s progress of learning. Special programmes for gifted students and less able ones have been adopted to narrow the gap of learning achievements owing to differences in learning progresses. Special examination arrangements have been made for students with special educational needs, for example, extending examination time, enlarging examination papers, exempting parts of examination papers. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: Various courses and activities are organized to enhance the effectiveness of the Parent Teacher Association. Parents and teachers maintain close contacts through the school web, newsletters, professional dialogues and meetings. School Ethos: The school believes in simplicity, modesty and nurturing through harmony of interaction. The school has received world-wide recognition such as ‘International Invitational Education Fidelity Award’,‘Excellent Caring School Award’, 'Safe and Healthy School Award’ and ‘Healthy School Award’ through the endeavor of all parties involved. Our environmental conscious effort has earned us the reputation of ‘Sustainable Development School’ and ‘Green School’ and the school stands among the leading schools in these areas of achievements.

We believe in mutual trust, mutual respect and stay positive in achieving growth of all nature within the parameters of the school campus.

Our comprehensive nurturing program has been put in place from the first day of operation. The ingrained practices have managed to give a hand to those who are less privileged in their social and personal attainments. They are observed enjoying the changes brought about by the related programs.

For the fresh form one students, we have established the 'nurturing leaders' scheme. Students from senior forms, namely S.4 and S.6 nominated volunteers, dip in to help with programmes that would cultivate a sense of belonging to the school and the community as a whole. Future Development School Development Plan: To optimise teaching standard and students’ multiple talents through flexible deployment of different resources. The School Development Plan (2018-2021) is ‘Promote Active Learning’, hoping to enhance teaching effectiveness and optimise curriculum development through strengthening the learning cycle (preview-showcase-discussion-feedback), using learning skills (reading strategies and learning tools), promoting STEM/STEAM education and refining assessing methods (teaching assessments and reflection on assignments). Teacher Professional Training and Development: 60% of our teachers possess master degrees, 100% bachelor degrees and 100% have completed teacher professional training. Peer collaboration lesson planning sessions are conducted every Monday after school, annual quality learning circle sharings are conducted and school-based teacher professional development publications are distributed for self-enhancement. Life-wide Learning Activities including Five Essential Learning Experiences, Key Learning Areas, Extra-curricular Activities, Co-curricular Activities, etc. Four houses for student activities in the name and spirit of ‘Fidelity’; ‘Trust’; ‘Benevolence’ and ‘Virtue’ are established. They form the backbone of various clubs attached to develop academic arenas, interests, sports and service potentials of students. Large-scale whole-school involvements are academic weeks, reading weeks and talent show. Annual local and overseas trips are arranged to strengthen students’ exposure in life experiences.

For the past decade, we have been awarded the ‘Caring Campus Award’. We have also been given the title of “Best Reading Atmosphere School” for eight years in a row; Championships in both Solo verse and Choral Speaking (English and Chinese) of the Speech Festival held annually; not to mention those awards in the categories of Mathematics, Dance, Photography, Sports, Rowing as well as Swimming.We are proud of our students’ accomplishments in various local and international academic and art-oriented activities. School Facilities School Facilities: Over 400 computers, Octopus system, school broadcasting system, five multi-language rooms and one self-learning centre are in place to support learning. All classrooms are equipped with computers and projection facilities. State-of-the-art: multi-language laboratories; video conferencing room and mobile facilities; school campus TV; English Wonderland; Liberal Studies Room; Electronic Chemistry Laboratory; Bio-technology Room; Electronic Music Room; Roof-top Garden; Green House; Environmental Resources Centre; Health Hub; Green Corner and Wind-turbine Street Lighting Set-up. Facility(ies) for Supporting Students with Special Educational Needs: Accessible lift, Accessible toilet and Support for students with special needs: full support in the recognition,transfer and classroom support measures. Teaching materials are tailored for special need students. . Others We have set up a wide range of scholarships to acknowledge the efforts of our students. We have encouraged the running of numerous outbound trips for our students and parents to broaden their views and keep in touch with what is going on in real life in other countries other than our motherland. Hence, they went to Taiwan, Malaysia and South Korea lately. Understanding cultural differences and similarity can enhance further cultural exchanges in the process of learning.

For their academic training, students participated in the yearly Speech Festival held locally and managed to cut good prizes other than exposure that will build up their confidence in themselves.

For sports, participation in local competitions had not only helped to gain awards but experience that would be valuable for the maturing of both physical and mental strength.

Results of public exam can be enhanced as well. Appreciation and Respect: We cultivate students' attitude of appreciation and respect of themselves and others so that the climate of harmonious and caring campus would be established. School Management Organisation: There are ten departments, including Administration, Academic, IT, Careers, Moral & Civic Education, Discipline, Counselling, Extra-curricular Activities, Religious and General Affairs. Teachers are consulted when major decisions are made. School policies are open and fair. We encourage teachers to create a learning circle, to support one another and to equip our students with skills needed for the future. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: In addition to the stake-holder committee members, the school sponsoring body has also nominated seven Christian professionals into the Incorporated Management Committee. School Green Policy: There is an Ambassador of the Environment in each class to implement energy-efficient and waste-reduction measures. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: We emphasize biliteracy and tri-lingualism. Extra resources have been allocated to enhance the English standard of our students. Based on the concept of gifted education, ability grouping is adopted in both junior and senior forms for class allocation. In the English elite class (F.1 & F.2), most of the modules of Humanities & Liberal Studies will be taught in English for enhancing the use of English. Besides, English and Chinese remedial teaching is conducted with smaller class size, so as to better cater for students’ learning diversities. A self-access learning centre and an on-line learning platform have been set up. Learning activities are also organized by the NET to enhance students’ motivation and interest in learning English. Chinese Language is taught in Cantonese. To boost the Putonghua proficiency, we offer Putonghua lesson in junior forms. Learning and Teaching Strategies: Our vision is to create an enjoyable learning and teaching environment to enhance the teaching effectiveness. We hope our students will possess a good learning attitude with good learning habits. Among the teaching staff, we encourage them to create a learning circle to share their teaching skills. In Junior forms, we provide broad curriculum. For Senior forms, we offer Science, Arts and Commerce streams to meet the needs of our students and match the university entrance requirement. Apart from Extensive Reading Scheme of Chinese Language and English Language, we have Reading Lessons every week for students to build up their reading habit. Whole-school WiFi network has been established and tablets have been purchased for implementing eLearning. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X. Provide Arts, Science and Commercial subjects. Students can choose two subjects among the various Arts, Sciences and Commercial subjects. 2. Curriculum highlights: (i) Students who are gifted in English/Maths will be allocated to English elite class or Maths elite classes whereas Chinese, English and Maths remedial teaching is conducted with smaller class size in junior and senior forms. Class-based teaching materials are designed to cater for students’ learning diversities. (ii) School-based curriculum and teaching materials are adopted in Junior form Humanities & Liberal Studies, Life Education and senior form Liberal Studies. (iii) In senior forms, we have school-based subjects, including Visual Art, Music, Drama, Dancing and Creative Media.

Development of Key Tasks: Reading to Learn: We have Reading Lessons every week, to build up students's reading habit. A special team is set up to promote reading habit and organize related activities. Project Learning: It is adopted in the formal lessons of Junior Liberal Studies. Civic and Moral Education: We strive to help students to develop good character and positive values towards life with focus on civil responsibility and voluntary service. Sex education starts in junior forms to nurture students with the right attitude towards sex. For IT in Education, we have computers and visualizers in each classroom. Whole-school WiFi network has been established and tablets have been purchased to provide the necessary environment for the successful implementation of eLearning. Continuous improvement in software and hardware of information technology enhances teaching and learning. A STEM team has been established to promote STEM education. Career and Life Planning: With the theme of “self-realisation”, we aim to let students understand more about their interests, personalities and vocational preferences through workshops and talks. Through seminars on choosing elective subjects, we enable Junior form students and parents to know more about the NSS structure and the mechanism for the allocation of subjects. Armed with such knowledge, they can then make more informed choices. Teachers provide senior form students the opportunity to have face-to-face counselling about life planning. The school social worker also provides service to students concerning career guidance. We take the initiative to meet with DSE candidates to review their academic results, set goals and study plans. We also give them encouragement where necessary. We provide mock interviews, a mock HKDSE result release day and internships in order to equip students for the challenges they will face later in life. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: Class streaming according to student academic ability. We introduce various learning workshops, such as learning skill, reading strategy and critical thinking skill training to students. We arrange school remedial classes to underachieving students. We adopt a “Dual Class Teacher” system in the Junior forms to strengthen student’s academic support and personal development. To help students with special educational needs develop their potential to the full, our school has set up a Special Education Needs (SEN) team to cater for their needs. For the sake of comprehensive support to students, full-time stationing services are also provided by a school-based social worker specialized in SEN, psychologist and speech therapist. We have established school policy to cater for students’ learning diversities. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: We have established the "Student Support Team" coordinated by the Vice-Principal. Members include SEN coordinator and teachers from Studies Department, Counselling Department, Discipline Department and core subjects. The team is responsible for coordinating, reviewing and implementing the various measures helping our SENS. We will make recommendations about giving an all-round support for our students and ways of promoting a culture of inclusiveness under the whole school development plan. A teaching assistant is arranged to give SENS support in their daily life. With the financial support of the Learning Support Grant from Education Bureau and our Sponsoring body, the school can provide the following professional services for students with special learning needs: school-based Education Psychologist service, counselling service provided by Registered Social Worker and Speech Therapy service. With the professional support from these experts, early interventions and assessments are possible. We can also provide our students follow-up programs and referrals as soon as possible. To broaden students’ learning experience and improve their social skills, we organize different types of activities for them, such as excursions, behavioral groups, social groups and game groups. The school also arranges after-school tutoring for students with special learning needs and low achievers. It is conducted in small groups, giving better care for individual students. With the advice of Educational Psychologist, some SENs are given Test and Exam special arrangements when needed. Education Support for Non-Chinese Speaking (NCS) Students: Our school provides additional support for NCS students to facilitate their learning of Chinese: Individual counselling and support will be provided if necessary. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: We emphasize the sustainable assessment and academic performance. In the class promotion/detention policy, we consider not just the academic results but also the conduct and attendance rate of students. We arrange assessment adjustments to accommodate the learning characteristics and abilities of SEN students. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: To enable parents to understand more about the school, we organise different activities for them. In recent years, we have developed parents voluntary service policy and let parents directly involve in the implementation of activities. The result is good. School Ethos: We put heavy emphasis on maintaining a pure and unsophisticated school climate. Dual class teachers and programmes are organized by Discipline and Counselling Departments, such as Self-actuation Scheme, All-rounded Development Award, Big Brothers & Sisters Scheme which cater for students’ individual needs. In moral and civic education, we introduce voluntary project, civic ambassador, environmental ambassador and health ambassador to equip our students. Through these activities, we equip our students with a positive value. Future Development School Development Plan: Active Learning: Through curriculum design, teaching strategies, learning assessment and on-line learning platform, we aim to foster students’ active learning. We equip students with basic competences for self-regulated learning, cultivate good learning attitude and habits, so that students know how to plan their learning progress and evaluate their learning outcome. Results of public exam can also be enhanced. We participate in the Active Learning Module of the "Quality School Improvement Project" of CUHK so as to continuously improve the curriculum and teaching. We participate in the learning community of the Hong Kong Association of the Heads of Secondary Schools to further enhance teachers' understanding and improve practice of self-directed learning through lesson observation and professional collaboration. Strategies for self-directed learning and teaching pedagogies are carefully developed and put in place to strengthen the effectiveness of teaching and learning.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: - School Management Organisation: School-based management and school-based curriculum are implemented. Priorities have been accorded to staff development and communication with parents and other organizations to nurture a learning organization culture. School Management Committee was incorporated with representatives from parents, teachers and alumni as well as lay members. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: In line with the Education Ordinance, an incorporated management committee was established in 2005. The committee consists of 15 members including parent manager, teacher manager and alumni manager. 4 meetings will be held annually to monitor the operation of the school. School Green Policy: We adopt the Whole School Approach to promote environmental education involving different subjects and groups, so as to cultivate good habits of teachers and students on environmental protection. Our Green Policy promotes energy conservation, environmental protection and waste reduction. Planting various types of plants on campus is another way for greening the campus. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Students' “biliterate and trilingual” proficiency will be improved through the introduction of Putonghua lessons, extensive Chinese and English reading schemes and writing weekly journals. To enhance the English learning environment of students, we conduct various extended learning activities in English such as publication of English journals in order to provide students the opportunity to learn the abilities of interview and editing. Our graduates will also assist in organizing "Exam Skills Class" to strengthen the Chinese and English oral skills of students. Morning assembly on every Thursday will be held in English or Putonghua so that students have the chance to practice English or Putonghua on the podium. We also carry out cross-curricular English enrichment programmes involving collaboration between English language teachers and staff from non-English language subjects areas such as Music, Computer and Home Economics. In addition, study excursion is launched every year to offer an authentic and practical learning English environment for students. Students are also encouraged to sit for international English and Putonghua tests to attain professional qualifications which is beneficial for their study and career. Learning and Teaching Strategies: There is an emphasis on cultivating students' multi-intelligence and comprehensive development in moral, intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic. In order to cater for the learner's diversity, self-directive and co-operation learning is widely conducted at school. Information technology and multi-media facilities have been highly developed. To enhance students' abilities in Chinese, English and Mathematics, extensive after-school supporting services are provided. Computers connecting with internet are equipped in our computer rooms, Multimedia Learning Center and Information Technology Learning Center.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: School Theme (2019-2022) Embrace faith and hope Let life blossom School Major Concerns (2019-2022) 1. Provide Quality Teaching; 2. Develop a Proactive and Positive Learning Community. School Management Organisation: The Incorporated Management Committee (IMC) of our school is established. We have a well-developed self-evaluation system to reinforce the implementation of school-based management. We also have a staff development team as well as the Parent-teacher Association. The close collaboration and support among different stakeholders strengthens the development of the school. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: In 2007, the Incorporated Management Committee of the school has been established. With the spirit of school-based management, different stakeholders like the school sponsoring body, the principal, teachers, parents, alumni and independent members take part in the decision-making so as to enhance the quality and effectiveness of education. School Green Policy: We have been taking initiatives to promote Environmental Education. Apart from delivering the green concept in the curriculum, we set up recycling bins and display green messages. In each classroom, there is a thermometer which tells students to switch on the air-conditioning system only when the temperature is too high. Meanwhile, we support green groups by carrying out Green Picnic, Green Christmas, Green Campus and so on to strengthen the awareness of environmental protection. To further implement green education, we have been offered an ‘Environmental and Conservation Fund’ to install energy-saving air-conditioners and lights. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: A rich English language learning environment can be created through making full use of the time and resources both inside and outside the school. At LCK, this EDB principle is achieved. In this academic year, we continue to have some F.1 to F.3 students to learn their major subjects in English. In order to further develop the English learning environment, we have extra manpower in native English teachers not only to co-teach with our local teachers but also facilitate our campus-wide English activities. The English Department also implements a range of language activities for students to extend their exposure to English and to experience English-speaking culture. Apart from our Lutheran-specialised "International Interface" programme, we are also having cross-cultural exchange programmes to Australia these years so that students can learn English authentically. To further develop student language ability, we also have classes in F.1 and 2 learning Chinese Language with Putonghua as the medium of instruction. Learning and Teaching Strategies: A number of F.1 to F.3 students learn major subjects in English. In senior secondary, small class teaching in core subjects is implemented while some elective subjects are taught in English. Revitalised Learning is being adopted in junior forms in order to enhance the effectiveness of both teaching and learning. Based on our students’ uniqueness, a wide variety of teaching strategies are incorporated into our school-based core curriculum. Apart from extra-curricular activities, co-curricular activities are also arranged to perfect students’ English learning by widening their daily exposure to English. To better students’ learning and align the junior curriculum to the senior one, integration of some content elements has also been implemented. To develop students' information technology skills, we have a refined junior Computer Literacy curriculum. With the implementation of collaborative lesson planning and the peer observation scheme, we have made great strides in teaching and learning efficiency. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: In senior secondary, students take 2 elective subjects and elite students can takes 3 elective subjects. 2. Curriculum highlights: Based on the features of each subject in the junior forms, we make adaptation to the curriculum, skills required, assignments and assessment which articulates with the senior form curriculum. For example, we focus on project learning skills development through the subjects of Geography and Integrated Science in the Form One curriculum. We adopt a cross-curricular approach with a certain subjects so as to enhance efficiency in teaching and learning.In addition, Life and Society is also implemented in junior forms so that students are well-equipped with proper learning strategies and can develop a strong academic foundation in preparation for higher order analysis in senior forms. Development of Key Tasks: In order to develop a reading atmosphere, on top of the reading scheme in Chinese and English Language subjects, we have implemented Reading Award Scheme. Class library is set up in each classroom and recommended books are provided in book shelves in the school front staircase. The school has also joined “Reading Campus” organized by HKedcity. Different teachers and students are invited to recommend fiction and non-fiction works. Reading workshops and book exhibitions are also organized, aiming at building a strong reading habit. With regard to project learning, we have a well-planned staged scheme to equip students with different skills through field trips. Acquiring these skills is a stepping stone for studies in senior forms. Meanwhile, Moral Education and Civil Education are developed by cross-curricular and cross-department collaboration. Through Life Education and other related activities, students share positive values and develop an enthusiastic attitude. Ultimately, they also learn to be good citizens. Being a citizen with global vision, we organize cultural exchange programmes every year to broaden their horizons. Career and Life Planning: The school has adopted a whole school approach to develop life planning education. A variety of activities at different levels are organized to allow students to explore themselves and understand different career paths. Life planning lessons are held in F.1 to F.5 levels while life education lessons are organised to help students establish appropriate goals in life. Besides, students gain working experience through participating in different schemes and workshops. We also launch a Counseling Day for F.3 to F.6 students to provide individual consultation about their studies and life planning. Moreover, different talks for parents are held to provide further information of elective subjects in senior curriculum and different career paths, so that they can provide better support for their children. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: Our “School Support Team” (not sure what school has named this team) is established to cater for learner diversity. Careers and Guidance Department plans and implements school-based material to prepare students for better career and life planning. There are remedial and enhancement classes that cater for different learning needs in Chinese, English Language and Mathematics. Class teachers facilitate the work of counseling in “Life Education”. Further from the merit of 'Outstanding Practices in Promoting Life Education' in the 'Caring School Award Scheme 2012', our school carries on to boom and be awarded of 'Excellence in Caring School Award Scheme (Promotion in Life Education)' in 2017. Small class size is a feature in senior forms to enhance the teaching and learning of core and elective subjects. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: To fully facilitate the learning of students with diverse learning needs, ‘Student Support Team’ is formed by utilizing ‘Learning Support Grant’ so that students with unique learning needs can benefit from outsourcing support ranging from speaking recovery, social skills training, after-school homework assistance and reading and writing courses. The Team does regular follow-ups with our school-based educational psychologist and social workers so as to tailor-make special learning materials and assessment tools for students concerned. Extra resources such as Healthy School Programme and Student Mental Health Support Scheme are also extracted from society according to different needs of our students. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: There are 2 examinations and 2 uniform tests throughout the academic year. According to student ability, a variety of assignments is presented and assessed. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: The Parent-teacher Association has been set up for years as a platform for parental involvement in school affairs and collecting opinions from parents. Besides organising a variety of activities, parents have taken an active role in being school volunteers and it contributes to a closer relationship among parents, teachers and students. School Ethos: We are renowned as a “caring campus”. We practice a “double class teacher system” and “form-based management” through Forms 1 – 4 to strengthen the communication between students and teachers. What’s more, our social worker and education psychologist give full support to students with problems. To cultivate team spirit, all Form 1 students have to be members of the uniform team and student fellowship. Future Development School Development Plan: School Major Concerns (2019-2022) 1. Provide Quality Teaching; 2. Develop a Proactive and Positive Learning Community. Teacher Professional Training and Development: To promote continuing professional development, teachers participate in a variety of staff development programmes, seminars and workshops organised by the school staff development team and other service providers. It is believed that in this way teachers are better equipped to cope with educational changes. Life-wide Learning Activities including Five Essential Learning Experiences, Key Learning Areas, Extra-curricular Activities, Co-curricular Activities, etc. We provide comprehensive choices of extra-curricular activities including the areas of religion, academic subjects, hobbies, service, sports and uniform teams.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: 1. Develop whole school curriculum; 2. Cultivate learning atmosphere and enhance learning effectiveness; 3. Instill positive values and enthusiastic attitude. School Management Organisation: Based on ISO9001:2015, our management puts special emphasis on our students' continuous improvement. The School Quality Assurance Committee is in-charge of the daily administration of the school, and is responsible for making policies of the school, students and all staff. Meanwhile the Administrative Support Committee, The Student Support Committee, The Teaching and Learning Committee and The Community Relationship Committee, co-ordinate and work out the 5 aspects of educational activities evenly. Besides, the spirit of continuous improvement is immersed/integrated in students' learning. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: IMC was established on 30th August 2008. School Green Policy: The school aims at promoting environmental protection. There are four directions namely 'replace', 'reuse', 'recycle' and 'reduce' for students and teachers to follow. Practically, all staff members and students are encouraged to reduce the use of paper and electricity. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Our school adopts ‘Chinese as the medium of Instruction’ to help with the communication and the interaction between teachers and students. Our school puts the stress on ‘bilingual and trilingual’ to enhance students' language abilities as we believe both Chinese and English are of equal importance. To cater for students’ need and boost the effectiveness of teaching and learning, ‘small-class teaching’ in both Chinese and English lessons is implemented in junior forms. Besides, well-equipped Chinese and English resources rooms are established at teachers and students’ disposal. Abundant opportunities are provided for students to give speeches in Chinese, English and Putonghua during the afternoon assembly. In order to polish students’ abilities in using English, specific units in certain subjects are conducted in English in junior forms. This objective is further achieved by organizing English extended learning activities regularly. Not only in junior forms, ‘small-class teaching’ is also adopted in English lessons in the New Senior Secondary Classes (NSS). Co-teaching of our local English teachers and the Native Speaking English Teacher (NET) is organized in all classes and a wide variety of English teaching activities are held constantly, like summer English bridging programs, after-school English tutorial classes, English enhancement courses, English afternoon assembly, English week and English drama, etc. On top of those mentioned, to strengthen students’ abilities and confidence in using English, our NET conducts after-school oral classes for students to practise their spoken English. Learning and Teaching Strategies: The school makes an effort in creating a harmonious and orderly learning environment for students. We implement multi, student-centred teaching methods so as to enhance students' motivation and cater for their learning diversities. It is hoped that they can master and enjoy learning in an active way. There are "small classes" in all forms. Smaller groups imply more effective learning and teaching and more intensive care.Our school provides students with a balanced education which aims at excellence in moral, intellectual, physical, interpersonal and aesthetic aspects. Students are encouraged to develop their abilities and cultivate their moral integrity. The school curriculum emphasizes the importance of language learning, IT and high-order thinking skills. Moreover, we develop our school-based curriculum. To cultivate students' reading habit and the initiative in learning to learn, the whole school, both teachers and all students, are required to participate in reading lessons. Our school library and all subject panels have been working together to implement the reading scheme in an attempt to encourage students to read more and broaden their spheres of interests and horizons. On top of those, the Chinese and English panels of our school carry out the Extensive Reading Scheme in both languages, in an effort to improve students' abilities in languages. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X. In total, 12 elective subjects are provided for students to let them have more choices. Our school also participates in the Network School Scheme and offers Joint School Courses for students. 2. Curriculum highlights: School-based Life and Society, Cross-Subject Project-Learning and Moral Education Curriculum are implemented in junior forms. F.3 students are guided to finish their own Independent Enquiring Study Projects so that they are better prepared for the NSS Curriculum. School-based integrated Art is implemented in F.4-F.5. Besides school-based extra-curriculum, school Enrichment Program of core subjects are arranged for senior forms. Development of Key Tasks: The implementation of the four key tasks enables students to develop independent learning ability. 1.The Reading Scheme and the reading programmes conducted by different KLAs and the library enable students to learn better reading skills and strategies. 2.The application of mobile learning, the e-learning platform and the integration of IT into teaching allow students to learn independently, thus becoming life-long and self-directed learners.3.Cross-subject projects and the Life-wide Learning Activity Day provide a platform for students to apply what they have learnt. 4.Issues of civic and moral education are integrated into the curriculum of different subjects and junior form students have moral education class every week so that they can be trained to be responsible citizens. Career and Life Planning: Career Life Planning of all students is one of our main concerns. To help different forms of students learn more about Career Life Planning, class teachers have to take an active role and their participation will be strengthened this academic year. Through class-teacher lessons, junior form students can learn to understand themselves more and select appropriate subjects to take when they continue their senior secondary studies. Besides, senior form students can learn the importance of Career Life Planning, understand more about the workplace and different pathways of overseas studies. Through individual counseling of teachers, Career Life Planning lessons, seminars and workshops, visits and practices, educational exhibitions and study tours to overseas universities, students can increase their understanding of themselves, the workplaces and different academic institutes. Hence, they can make appropriate choices when they continue their studies and start their careers. Our school makes use of resources outside school, such as working with different non- government organizations and taking part in the scheme of Project We Can 2, to provide students with more workplace experiences and chances of practice. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: To cater for students' diverse learning needs and take care of students in better ways, the school has adopted the "Scheme of Cultivating Student Growth". Through this scheme, two class teachers are assigned to each class in junior form so that more attention and support will be available for each student. When conducting English lessons for F.1 to F.6 students, more able students are selected to form separate groups so that their abilities can be further enhanced. We tailor our school curriculum to suit the needs of students. The school-based curriculum includes both core and extended parts. In teaching, we promote collaborative learning so that students can learn in groups and help one another to learn. We implement continuous assessment and standard-referencing assessment so as to cater for diverse learning abilities. In order to cater for different students’ needs and develop students' potential, the Invitational Education Programme and the SEN programme are arranged. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: Learning Support Group has been set up in our school for years. The members of this group include Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator(SENCo), Vice Principal, Guidance Master, SEN support teachers(SENST), core subject coordinators, school social worker and school-based educational psychologist. We aim at promoting the Whole School Approach to Integrated Education and providing SEN students with a secure, inclusive and equal learning environment. Talks, workshops for the teachers are organized and conducted by school-based EP and other specialists so as to strengthen the teachers’ skills in handling students with SEN. Additional teachers and teaching assistants are employed to enhance the effectiveness in implementing supporting measures and monitoring outsource remedial programs. The additional staff can also have much help in case follow-up and better home-school communication. Learning Support Grant is used to purchase external professional training programs to support students with SpLD, emotional and behavioural difficulties, language impairment and the parents by offering workshops, etc. Special examination arrangements are also made in accordance with students’ needs. The assessment accommodations include extra time arrangement, special exam room, using speech-to-text and screen reader technical aids and special designed exam papers etc. Furthermore, an IEP is to be drawn up for each students who is in need of intensive individualized support. We have joined the “Student Mental Health Support Scheme” to improve mental health of our students. 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. The school provides after-school homework support for Non-Chinese Speaking Students. Teachers or external tutors can help them to learn Chinese. In addition, the school encourages Non-Chinese Speaking Students to participate external Chinese competitions to increase confidence and broaden their horizons. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: Two uniform tests and a final exam are arranged every year. The approach of continuous assessment has been adopted. Various tests and assessments, which are set according to students' ability, are designed to help students' learn. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: The aim of the Parent-Teacher Association is to increase the communication and cooperation between parents and teachers. With the collaboration between parents and the school, teachers and the principal, different types of parent-teacher activities and plans are carried out. For example, seminars on specific topics, parents’ interest groups, picnic, student service award and Student Financial Aid Scheme are organized and granted. All these can enhance home-school cooperation. School Ethos: Students’ development in the 5 domains of education is emphasized in our school.

We further organize students to participate in talks and green actions outside school and put green elements in teaching practices. Different subjects have enhanced the knowledge and awareness of green life through discussions and visits. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: English is our core medium of instruction, with Chinese and Putonghua being our twin thrust for biliteracy and tri-lingualism. Learning and Teaching Strategies: Our school offers a progressive learning environment to assist students in their life-long learning, life-wide learning, autonomous learning and collaborative learning. We offer general grammar-school curriculum for junior students. In senior forms, we provide 10 elective subjects besides 4 core subjects. Our school has a variety of reading programmes and reading award schemes, as well as a whole-school Lunch English Reading Time to promote reading habits. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X, 3X and 4X. Students may have their own choices according to their abilities and interests. 2. Curriculum highlights: In the Senior Secondary Curriculum, we offer students a wide range of school-based OLE opportunities encouraging them to participate in five areas, namely Moral and Civic Education, Community Service, Career-related Experiences, Aesthetic Development and Physical Development. With the support of EDB’s “Diversity Learning Grant”, we can offer HKDSE Music, PE and "Other Languages Course" (Japanese), to our students as an elective subject. These language courses follow a curriculum leading to the examinations pitched at Advanced Supplementary (AS) Level offered by the Cambridge International Examinations and administered by the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority (HKEAA). Development of Key Tasks: For the promotion of Reading to Learn through a variety of strategies, our objective is to enhance students' bilingual ability and learning effectiveness, to help students to establish their personal reading profiles to promote a good reading habit. Launching Campus TV which offers a wide variety of specific TV programmes, we hope to promote a reading atmosphere and students' bilingual ability. We also promote our reading atmosphere through a series of activities like book fairs, writers' talks, students' reading sharing sessions, teachers' book recommendations, book sharing sessions and etc. In terms of school curriculum planning, we launch the Reading Across Curriculum in various subjects to promote students' Chinese and English reading ability. IT-based teaching and learning packages, as well as Project Learning, are deliberately articulated with teaching and learning across the eight Key Learning Areas in this school, with a common objective of gearing up students' generic skills. Moral and civic education is delivered mainly via Life Education programmes and School Assemblies. Career and Life Planning: We would encourage students to actively target and shape their personal development and life objectives so that they would amass career repertoire, explore the working world more widely, and eventually construct clearer study and life plans out of their own interest and aspirations. To strengthen life planning education and career guidance in junior forms, we revitalize the Junior Form Life Education Programmes, deliver parent mass talks, provide counselling and psychological services, and teacher developments. With this school-based support system, teachers are placed in a more professionally-sound position to aspire and assist in students’ growth. We also proactively and strategically plan for senior form students an integrated in-house “Life-wide Guidance Package in Career & Life Planning”. The package is an assortment of career guidance events developed by Career Team, life planning programs and experiences, self-directed assessments, and workplace visits/internships -- all aim at enhancing students’ self-understanding and evaluation, and elevating their positive attitude in career planning.

School Green Policy: Environmental protection education is incorporated and embedded into the curriculum and the school life in the hope of raising students' awareness of the need and importance of conservation and preservation. To this end, various measures have been implemented. For example, air-conditioning is available only when the temperature reaches 26 degrees Celsius. Nearly all internal documents have been digitized and uploaded to the intranet for internal and future reference. To save paper, internal circulars are circulated via email. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: S.1-3: Subjects taught in English include Mathematics, Integrated Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Computer and Information Technology. S.4-6: To cater to learner diversity, students are allowed to choose Chinese as their MOI to learn science subjects such as Mathematics, Information and Communication Technology, Physics, Chemistry and Biology.

The more able students were encouraged to join various gifted programs, along with leadership training programs and the Mathematical Olympiad classes. Besides, collaborative lesson planning periods were arranged for teachers to plan the lessons together according to students' need. The school also emphasized the development of reflective learning skills and the teaching of various learning skills to students in different forms, including communication skills, problem solving skills, critical thinking skills, logical thinking skills and collaborative learning. Students applied these skills in their daily studies and project work. The school also encourages students to join study tours so as to broaden their horizons. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X and 3X. BAFS, Bio, Chem, Chi. Hist, Econ, Geog, HMSC, ICT, Phys 2.

Through subject homepages, supplementary materials are uploaded and distributed to students. Cross-curricular project-based learning is implemented in junior forms to cultivate project-learning skills and to evaluate / assess students' learning. Development of generic skills in students prepares them for the independent enquiry studies in the New Senior Secondary Liberal Studies curriculum. Apart from regular talks in morning assemblies, class periods, reading periods, thematic board displays, etc, moral and civic education is also incorporated into the teaching schemes of all subjects. On the first week of each month, our school hosts the flag-raising ceremony to heighten students' awareness of their national identity.

We'll also equip students with the knowledge, skills and attitude to make wise choices of subjects and careers in accordance with their interest, abilities and orientations. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: This is one of our school's major concerns. We will evaluate and design various teaching strategies, give learning support to students, especially those with special educational needs and run professional development programmes for teachers with a view to enhance teaching effectiveness. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: STMGSS is committed to developing an inclusive culture through the Whole School Approach to support students with SEN. A task force on Integrated Education is established.

In addition, our school treasures home-school cooperation by establishing regular communication channels to facilitate parents’ participation in the formulation of policy on students' support and the evaluation of its effectiveness. 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. Our school provides after-school support for non-Chinese speaking students in learning Chinese History. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: Students are assessed through two examinations and two mid-term tests. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: The Parent Teacher Association (PTA) was established in 1993. It aims to promote close liaison among parents themselves as well as to strengthen the connection between parents and school administration in order to support the school's sustainable development. Parents may also become a member of School Management Committee (SMC) to discuss school development plans and related issues of mutual concern through joining the election of parent representatives of SMC. School Ethos: Various student support activities are organized to foster students' character growth and development. The 'Big Brother Big Sister' Scheme for Secondary 1 students, prefects training and leadership training schemes are a few examples. Talks and activities on moral and civic education, environmental education, life and sex education are regularly organized during morning assemblies and class teacher periods.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: 2019/20 Learning Theme: "Living a fulfilling life, being a proactive learner" School Management Organisation: The IMC carries out "school-based management" which lets the main parties in the school to decide and establish the most suitable goal and policy for the school. It is also highly concerned about the professional development of the teaching fellows and to provide them with professional training. Besides, it also highlights the importance of communication between the school and the parents, which helps to produce a prefect-learning environment for students. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: The IMC is set up by a group of experienced people in the society. They include members from the sponsoring body, individual professionals, principals, parents, alumni and teacher representatives, etc. They help to carry out "school-based management". Our school expects to further raise the transparency to everyone so as to ensure the decisions made are the best for students. School Green Policy: There is a greenhouse and an ecology lake in the school garden. The planting group members and ecology ambassadors are to take care of these two places. Teachers can use the above facilities for teaching purposes, integrating the concept of environmental protection into the curriculum. Besides, the school has installed energy saving devices so as to reduce the amount of electricity use. There is also a temperature indicator in each classroom in order to remind students not to switch on the air-conditioners when the temperature is not high. Furthermore, there is a fashion competition for environmental protection every year, which helps to raise the importance of environmental awareness in the whole school. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Our school adopts English as the main medium of instruction. To strengthen students' proficiency in English, Chinese and Putonghua and enable our students to be biliterate (English and Chinese) and trilingual (English, Putonghua and Cantonese), we have allocated additional resources, employed ten more teachers and used Putonghua as the medium of instruction in a number of Chinese classes. As it is always our goal to help our students to further their studies in universities, in addition to regular classes, our school also organises small classes with intensive English inputs for students in need of extra language support. Learning and Teaching Strategies: Emphasis is on the facilitation of learning, and motivation of interests so that students can learn with enthusiasm. We are concerned with both the quantity and quality of assignments. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X and 3X. Students can choose two or three NSS electives to study with reference to their interests and abilities. 2. Curriculum highlights: Several of the school subjects have teamed up with External Examiners who serve as consultants and we also cooperate with several universities in order to improve our teaching strategies and curriculum design.The incorporation of 9 generic skills in junior forms aid the development of positive values. Modular-based subjects also enable students to be the masters of their own learning. Development of Key Tasks: 1. To enhance the exposure of students in reading, we set up the Makopanian Reading Scheme and run the Morning Reading Time to cultivate a habit of reading among staff and students. 2. With the support of Christian Education Unit and Guidance Unit as well as different subjects, we promote character building in students. 3. By studying Liberal Studies and undertaking project learning in junior forms, students are encouraged to do studies, from which the skills of observation, data collection and analysis as well as critical thinking are fostered. 4. Interactive learning can be further promoted with the help of information technology. All the classrooms are equipped with computers and projectors and with access to the Internet. Career and Life Planning: Please refer to the school website: http://www.makopan.edu.hk. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: Chinese, English, Mathematics and Integrated Humanities will be taught by using group-teaching method with classes and groups separated according to students' ability. Elite classes and remedial classes will be provided after school for them. Meanwhile, school curriculum, different teaching activities and schoolwork in different subjects will also be designed according to students’ ability so as to provide support and training for those who have special needs in learning. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: We adopt the Whole School Approach to implement integrated education. The Student Support Team has been set up (including the vice-principal, academic mistress, discipline master, counselling master, SEN coordinator, SEN supporting teacher, Chinese and English teachers, associate teachers, etc.) to support students with special education needs. We also arrange teachers to participate in relevant teacher trainings to enhance their professional competence. In addition, we flexibly use the Learning Support Grant and other on-campus resources to support students with special education needs, including the appointment of associate teachers to offer individual and group trainings according to their needs; and the purchase of speech therapy services for students with corresponding needs. In addition, we also take care of the learning differences of students with special needs through measures like homework adjustments and special examination arrangements. In order to identify the special educational needs of students early and facilitate home-school communication, the SEN coordinator and SEN supporting teacher meet with relevant students and parents on the S.1 registration day. We also work closely with the Education Bureau and professionals such as educational psychologists to conduct case conferences and assessments, so that the class teachers and the subject teachers can understand the updated situation of the students to provide relevant support in their school life and learning. We also design Individual Education Plan for more needy students and invite parents to participate in meetings, so reviews about the effectiveness of different arrangements can be carried out regularly, from which parents can teach and take care of their child more effectively. Education Support for Non-Chinese Speaking (NCS) Students: Our school provides additional support for NCS students to facilitate their learning of Chinese: For example: providing pull-out programmes and after-school educational support Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: There are two uniform tests and two examinations in each year. We adopt continuous assessment in various ways, including oral presentation, project learning, collaborative work and experiments. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: Parents are the most important partners and one of the most important human resources of our school. Parents provide support in collecting money, organizing activities and invigilating, etc., which helps in reducing the workload of our teachers and staff. In order to provide parents and volunteers with their own working environment, our school has built the Parents' Resources Centre. The committee members of the Home-School Association have organized a variety of large-scale and high quality interest groups such as Chinese opera, painting, knitting and the making of wire mesh flowers, etc. These activities help to increase the parents' sense of belonging to the school. School Ethos: Our school trains students to respect and serve others as well as be a responsible and law-abiding citizen while implementing a comprehensive and fair award and punishment system. To nurture a positive culture in the campus as well as facilitate students to grow up in a happy and benevolent environment, we adopt the whole-school approach to guidance and there will be two Form-teachers in each class. We will also help students develop their confidence and whole persons through after-school classes such as gifted classes, improvement programmes, Big Brothers and Sisters Scheme, 13 uniform teams and activities organized by the Student Services Centre and our partner church (Yan Yau Church). Future Development School Development Plan: To nurture in our students good qualities, our school has set the learning themes as "Living a fulfilling life, being a proactive learner" and our expectations of Makopanians: "Enthusiastic and Self-motivated, Loyal and Responsible, Pure and Courteous, Honest and Courageous, Sincere and Considerate".

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: We uphold "Build character, Seek wisdom, Honour God, Serve man" as our main goal for nurturing our students. School Management Organisation: Our school's administration is divided into two functional dimensions, namely "Curriculum"and "Administration". The school's management relies on the participation of various stakeholders, including teachers, parents and students, giving rise to the unusual creativity and flexibility in our administrative approaches. Furthermore, our Student Council gauges students' views on the school's policies on a regular basis to maximize students' participation in all decision-making processes. Last but not least, the school vice-principals share the workload to take care of the needs and development of junior and senior forms. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: The Incorporated Management Committee was established in 2005. Its members include managers representing the sponsoring body, the principal, a teacher manager, a parent manager, an alumni manager and an independent manager. Its function is to evaluate the operations of the school, to explore the school's developmental direction, and to provide the necessary resources. School Green Policy: The message of energy conservation and planet protection remains an important theme of our assemblies. An energy saving plan has been implemented and the print-on-both-sides principle has been upheld in all levels, ranging from school documents to students’ notes and exams. Recycling bins have also been set up to encourage recycling of used paper. In order to reduce unnecessary waste, our school takes part in an eco-friendly lunch scheme, of which the aim is to encourage the use of recyclable utensils and containers. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: In the junior forms (S.1 to S.3) English is designated as the medium of instruction in Mathematics and Integrated Science classes with a view to bridging the junior and the senior curriculums. In Secondary 4 to 6, the medium of instruction is mainly Chinese with the exceptions of Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics Extended Part Module 2, Business, Accounting and Financial Studies (Accounting Module), which are taught in English. Learning and Teaching Strategies: Our school strives to provide quality education. Our way to achieve excellence is through variation in pedagogy and understanding multifarious learning theories and learning styles, so three projects, scilicet Teaching Kit, Accelerated Learning Kit and Motivation Kit, were produced. In response to an invitation from the District Teacher Network (DTN) to share the essence of the kits with teachers, our school delivered several inter-school workshops across Hong Kong. In recent years, the concepts of cooperative learning and of positive reinforcement have been injected into the school's curricula in order to boost students' learning motivation. In the face of the recent education reform, self-study skills and critical thinking skills are our prime concern in terms of curriculum development in the junior forms. Liberal Studies has been introduced in the junior levels with a view to extending it to the new senior secondary schooling. English is conducted in small groups according to the lesson's objectives to cater for individual needs. The use on Information Technology in teaching and the homework policy are designed to build up a more conducive learning environment for students. Using advanced technology in the language laboratory and in the TV studio, we are able to provide our students with sundry learning experiences. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X and 3X. Elective subject group 1: History, HMSC, ICT, BAFS, Chemistry. Elective subject group 2: Chinese History, Economics, Geography, Physics, Biology. Elective subject group 3: Music. 2. Curriculum highlights: In Secondary 3, our curriculum offers a great variety of subjects catering for the studies in the senior forms. Development of Key Tasks: TTC nurtures its reading culture through regular reading sessions in class-teacher periods, reading schemes and subject-based reading plans. In particular, the Chinese and English Departments promote reading in general through a comprehensive online reading scheme. The IT infrastructure of the school (including a state-of-the-art network and its omnipresent WiFi coverage on the school premises) has set the stage for effective IT-based pedagogies. Our frequent use of technology and cooperative learning strategies encourages students to explore the world and to learn to collaborate through multifarious activities, such as group projects and presentations. Our school provides tablets (iPad) for teachers to use in lessons to enhance learning efficacy. Our focus on self-regulated learning, critical thinking skills and communication skills sets the scene for our self-regulated learning program in S.1, S.2 Integrated Science, and for our project-learning schemes in S.1 interdisciplinary STEM and S.2 Liberal Studies respectively, all of which facilitate the development of self-directed learning. Our religious studies, junior liberal studies, assemblies, religious cell groups, health and civic education, disciplinary programs and counseling programs all aim to inculcate the right values in our students. Our "Exemplary Class Project" and "5-S Classroom Management Approach" also serve to develop a good school ethos. Career and Life Planning: In the junior forms, a Career and Life Planning curriculum has been integrated into the school-based junior Liberal Studies curriculum. This aims to develop students' understanding of their own ability and personality, and to encourage students to explore the multifarious possibilities in their career paths, which will certainly enable them to make the right decisions when selecting their electives. In the senior forms, the school organizes workshops, excursions to local and overseas universities and seminars to help students choose the right institutes and programs for further education, thus discovering and fulfilling their life missions. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: Different task groups are formed based on students' needs, and these groups, in collaboration with educational psychologist, work together to provide adequate support for every individual in the school. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: Our school is committed to building a culture of inclusiveness for students with Special Education Needs (SEN) by adopting a whole-school approach. Through flexible resource deployment, our students’ individual needs are met, and the ultimate goal is to raise learning effectiveness and to facilitate seamless integration for everyone. The school has already established a “Student Learning Support Team” and appointed an SEN Coordinator, who, in collaboration with various parties (including the Counselling Team, the Discipline Team, Class Teachers, the Social Worker, the Educational Psychologist, the Prefects of Studies, and subject teachers), provides optimal support for our SEN students. In addition to this strong task force, our school makes use of the Learning Support Grant to acquire additional human resources and to procure different professional services, such as Speech Therapy, Social Training Services, Executive Function Training Services, and the like. Our school attaches cardinal importance to Home-School Cooperation, and has established a regular communication mechanism with parents to help them develop a better understanding of their children’s needs, which in turns encourages them to take part in the planning of intervention programmes, to evaluate their progress and effectiveness, and to provide similar support for their students at home. Education Support for Non-Chinese Speaking (NCS) Students: Our school provides additional support for NCS students to facilitate their learning of Chinese: To facilitate immersive Chinese learning experience for non-Chinese speaking (NCS) students, our school has adopted an integrative approach, in which NCS students have normal Chinese lessons together with their classmates. In addition, our school, in collaboration with non-government organizations, provides after-school tutorials for our NCS students to ensure their learning effectiveness in Chinese lessons. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: Other than examinations and tests, schoolwork and projects are also included in the formal assessment. Students are grouped according to the lesson's objectives when having English lessons so as to optimize the learning outcome. The English Panel, Chinese Panel and Mathematics Panel hold remedial classes for all low achievers and organize special courses for the elites in the junior and senior levels in the school in order to hone their skills according to their needs after each major assessment. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: TTC's Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) was established in 1998, serving as a bridge between parents and the school. Various activities, like workshops, courses, interest groups, volunteer programs, are held regularly to facilitate better communication between parents and their children. Parents also actively take part in school management and decision-making, such as PTA lunch-together, electing a parent manager and an alternate parent manager for the Incorporated Management Committee for a 2-year-tenure, to gain a better understanding of their students’ learning and to facilitate the development of the school. School Ethos: TTC encourages simplicity in life style and industriousness in school work. The Student Discipline Committee, the Student Counseling Committee, the Moral and Civic Education Committee, the Health Education Committee, the Extracurricular Activities Committee and the Parent-Teacher Association work together to build a learning-conductive environment for students. A set of moral values, i.e. be respectful, be responsible, be kind, are inculcated in the classroom, the morning assemblies and the weekly assemblies so as to achieve the ultimate goal of pastoral care — Build character, Seek wisdom, Honour God, Serve man. Future Development School Development Plan: The school has three developmental directions: (1) To enhance students' learning motivation; (2) To nurture students' ability to plan and manage; (3) To establish a life-long attitude that values respect, love and self-confidence among our students. Teacher Professional Training and Development: Our mentoring program arranges for a veteran teacher to mentor a newly appointed teacher to ensure smoothness in his/her adaptation to the new environment and to expedite professional development. Staff development activities and lesson observations are carried out in a manner designed to spur improvement both in terms of values, professional knowledge and pedagogy. Life-wide Learning Activities including Five Essential Learning Experiences, Key Learning Areas, Extra-curricular Activities, Co-curricular Activities, etc. In hopes of actualizing the very different potentials of each student and allowing them to develop in all dimensions, our school has organized a total of 40 clubs and interest groups divided into five major categories, namely the academic category, the skills development category, the sports category, the service category and the religion category. To strengthen students' aesthetic development as well as promoting all-round development, all Secondary 1 entrants are expected to participate in the music instrumental class (8 classes are offered this year) offered by the school and to join one of the core extracurricular activities so as to receive formal musical training, nurture good virtues and broaden their horizon. TTC holds a strong belief that enhancing the co-operation opportunities between junior and senior forms brings benefits and learning experiences to our students. Putting beliefs into practice, various inter-house competitions are held every year, from academic (debate competition) to sports (basketball), from classroom (quiz competition) to stage (talent show). It is hoped that students can strive for excellence by supporting and working together.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: 1. To strengthen collaboration across various departments and functional groups, and enlarge the established professional teaching and learning community. 2. To build up a school-based tiered curriculum and implement diversified e-learning strategies. 3. To optimize the ‘form-based management’ and carry out the Six-year Coherent Curriculum of Students' Growth at full throttle. School Management Organisation: We employ a school-based management approach with the Principal as the head. Studies Department, Discipline Department, Guidance and Counselling Department, Career Department, Extra-Curricular Activity Department, Moral Education Department, Civic Education Department and General Affairs Department work closely on a form basis, meeting the education needs of each students. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: Our school has implemented School-based Management since 1997. The School Advisory Committee was set up under the supervision of the School Management Committee. In response to the operation of the Education (Amendment) Ordinance 2004, our school also set up an IMC on 1 Feb 2006. The IMC consists of school sponsoring body representatives. The IMC will have 3 meetings annually in order to give the stakeholders the input in major decision making, school planning, the evaluation of teaching and learning effectiveness, managing of financial and human resources. Its ultimate aim is to help the school maintain its long-term development and enhance the transparency and accountability of the school management. School Green Policy: As our school constantly stresses the importance of greening the campus, different trees and flowers are planted around the school. Applications of additional grants for greening construction projects are in progress. In addition, we encourage our teachers, staff and students to make good use of the resources and support the recycling of resources. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Our school has been implementing the policy of "Biliteracy and Trilingualism" to foster our students' proficiency in Chinese, English and Putonghua. The major strategies include split classes and supplementary classes after school for senior forms. In addition, drama lessons for junior forms, compulsory Putonghua lessons, morning reading scheme, English activity room, and activities organized by relevant ECA clubs and societies. Our purpose is to build up a language-rich environment in line with the school's curriculum planning, classroom teaching and extra-curricular innovations. Learning and Teaching Strategies: We strive to create a decent learning environment for the students' all-round development. Various field trips to museums, science centres and overseas study tours make learning available inside and outside of classrooms. This promotes students' self-learning ability and broadens their horizons. We expand our curriculum and use Chinese as the medium of instruction to cater for the levels and needs of our students. It is also used in classrooms to encourage the students to gain more knowledge.Reading classes in junior forms help the students develop learning and reading strategies. We encourage them to submit book reports regularly so as to broaden their horizon and develop a reading habit.

All these help them to explore personal professional development and reflect on the aspects that need to be enriched and improved. The bottom-up approach becomes the basis of planning for professional development of the whole teaching staff. 2. Overseas/Local advanced study: Last year, four teachers at management level went abroad for educational inspection. The places visited include the United Kingdom, Germany and the Netherlands. The focuses of inspection include assessment literacy and curriculum planning. 3. CUHK QSIP: With the help of school grants, we invite CUHK's "Quality School Improvement Project" to work with our teachers to make comprehensive improvement in teaching and learning in five core subjects (Chinese, English, Mathematics, Liberal Studies and Integrated Science) from 2019 to 2022. 4.

Gifted education, special learning support, career planning and STEM are all educational policies that our school attaches importance to. 2. Cherish the achievements of students: The acquisition of knowledge requires meaningful learning experiences. Deep learning depends on the ability to apply what one has learnt and to put it into practical use. Besides the written examination scores of various subjects, students’ report cards also have a comprehensive record of students' efforts and achievements in different areas, including social services, competitions, moral education learning activities and so on. Senior form report cards refer to the Student Learning Profile and provide personal statement items for students to self-evaluate and reflect on their learning. 3.
