School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: “Success is the mother of success” is one of the beliefs that the school holds. The development of children can be much better if it is under appreciation, encouragement, and respect. Success is not only measured by academic performance but also through their multiple potentialities so as to enhance their self-esteem that leads to further success. School Management Organisation: We practise school-based management involving the school supervisor, members of school board, principal, parents, alumni and teachers. The efficiency of school management as well as leadership was acknowledged in the recent External School Review. Management work is led by the principal, vice principals and assistant principals organizing the work of several administrative clusters concerning Teaching and Learning, Discipline and Counseling, Extra-curricular Activities, Career Guidance, Buddhist Education, Information and Technology, Students Other Learning Experiences and Civic Education etc. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: Founded in July, 2009 School Green Policy: Our Civil Education team is responsible for conveying messages about protecting our environment. During assembly lessons, we invite different environmental NGOs to give talks to our students and workshops are arranged as extra curricular activities. Students will then obtain knowledge about the most recent environmental protection issues. Also, we organise voluntary services for students to experience and make contributions to the society about related topics. Knowledge concerning environmental protection is included in the syllabuses of some academic subjects like Integrated Science and Liberal Studies. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: In order to enhance the English proficiency of our students, we hire a full-time NET. Besides, there are teaching assistants helping students with listening and speaking skills. We organize reading scheme and writing workshop to promote the reading and writing skills of students. What is more, some students are recommended to sit for international English assessments such as Cambridge English, TOEIC and IELTS. In spite of adopting Chinese as our teaching medium, we arrange English language extension activities in 6 subjects. Learning and Teaching Strategies: We emphasize the enhancement of language proficiency and mastery of IT. Another focus of the school is to cultivate students to abide the rules and take up responsibilities. Creativity is certainly encouraged in the campus. Teachers discipline students with love and are under the mission of differentiating the curriculum in order to suit students’ needs as well as cater for learning diversity. For some subjects, textbooks are tailor-made by teachers so as to integrate appropriate materials for our students. We place emphasis on the learning process rather than results. This aims at helping students to learn, make progress, develop good values and attitudes and ultimately pursue excellence. In different levels, we set different attainment standards. For those who fail to meet the standards, tutorials are provided. Moreover, S.1 and S.2 students can stay after school to finish their work under the supervision of teachers or hired tutors. Voluntary based after school tutorial are also offered to students of other levels. Higher achievers are granted other courses as well. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X. 18 electives combinations from 11 subjects are provided for students to choose according to their ability and interest in every senior secondary level. 2. Curriculum highlights: Life education as well as Buddhism and Value Education are implemented in S.1 to S.3 to nurture students with good lifestyles and attitudes. Apart from subjects related to public examinations, students can also develop themselves via their individual learning experience to enrich their growth. In senior forms, School-based Applied Learning includes first-aid, make-up, photography, food and beverage catering is offered. Students need to participate in different learning activities such as religions, performing arts, study tour etc to gain experience outside the classroom. Development of Key Tasks: In order to improve students' reading ability, strengthen their reading and self-learning habits, the school has integrated reading as one of the main elements into the curriculum of all subjects. Through the setting of the theme-based reading activities, class teachers make good use of the self-regulated learning period to lead and encourage students to read. At the same time, different activities such as book exhibitions, book sharing and writers talk are held every year to promote the reading culture of the whole school. A projector, screen, computer linked with wireless network and a visualizer are installed in each classroom to provide an interactive learning atmosphere through the use of IT. Project based learning elements are integrated in each subject so as to enhance the spirit of teamwork and collaboration of students. The Civic Education Team, Ethics and Religious Team and the Discipline and Counseling Team arrange several kinds of voluntary work, leadership training, seminars and visits for students. At the same time, posts and duties are created in each class, different subjects and in school to cultivate the sense of responsibility towards the country, society, family and individual with the hope of making them contributive citizens in the world of tomorrow. Career and Life Planning: During the Career Week, old students working in different sectors are invited to share their work life with students. Regular visits to universities and different entrepreneurs are provided to widen the scope of students. Summer Internship schemes have been organized with commercial firms for our students as well. For senior form students, time slots of receiving individual counseling service concerning career planning are allocated. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: Whole-school approach is adopted in catering for students’ diverse learning needs. No one will be left out in our school. There are two class teachers in each class to work with a discipline and counseling teacher to take care of the students. We hire 2 full-time social workers and 4 student counselors. Furthermore, 10 qualified and trained instructors regarding discipline and counseling, teaching and activity to assist our students in learning. In order to better cater for our students, we practice medium class teaching and co-teaching. Officers and assistants holding the social worker certificates are employed to organize and assist SEN students. For the other teachers, we believe integration is the best way to nurture our students to learn under mutual aid and mutual love. We are one of the first patch of schools which were chosen to join the Project WeCan to receive sponsor of 1.5 million dollars per year from the Wharf (Holdings) Limited. This sponsor is spent on providing multiple learning opportunities, opportunities to success, extra tutorial classes and study tours for students of different abilities. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: Our school adopts a "whole school approach" model to promote integrated education and is committed to building a culture of inclusiveness. Through the establishment of a student support team, including the Vice Principal, the SENCO, teachers from core subjects departments, social workers, teaching assistants, and the school-based Educational psychologists, to provide comprehensive support for students with special learning needs. The team will organize the relevant students' information and communicate with teachers and discuss follow-up measures. Regular special events will be held to enhance teachers' understanding of integrated education. Teachers will also be arranged to participate in related training courses organized by EDB to enhance their professional knowledge. The school has a flexible use of the Learning Support Grant to support the development of students in all aspects. In terms of learning support, we cater for the diversity of students' learning through school-based curriculum design, diversified teaching strategies and various after-school learning support measures. In terms of student growth, different experience activities and career planning projects are held to develop students' multiple intelligences and create opportunities for them to succeed. At the same time, outsourcing expert services provide students with more professional training. The school attaches great importance to the cooperation between parents and school. In addition to establishing a constant communication mechanism, the team also actively meets parents at Parent Days to review the situation of students and to set study plans for individual students. All these measures let parents adapt a more effective way to take care of and teach their children. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: In each lesson, teaching goals are stated clearly. Questioning is conducted in the end of each lesson to ensure consolidation, efficiency and effectiveness to attain the set standard. There are one examination and one graduation examination for F.6 students and two assessments together with a summative assessment for F.1 to F.5 students. In the school reports, examination results, daily performance, conduct, and achievements like services and competition results are listed. For students who cannot meet the academic requirements, they have to attend counseling activities during summer holidays to gain improvements. If they still cannot make it, then they need to repeat in the original levels. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: Two Parents’ Days for whole school and Parents days for Specific levels are held every year. Communication with parents is done through the student handbook, telephone, school newsletter, emails and parent letters. Parents are welcome to take part in social gatherings and talks arranged by the PTA to cultivate a good relationship and enhance the acknowledgement of school policies and visions.

Discipline camps are held and PATH periods are integrated into our time-table. We have the Resurrection Scheme to guide students to self-correction.

The Student Support Master, Special Educational Needs Coordinator, Education Psychologist, three social workers, and class teachers fully support the school's special education services to provide students with different types of services. In addition, we also provide special arrangements for students to adapt their curriculum and assessments for those in need.

The use of the afternoon every Wednesday from 2:15 pm onwards is another highlight of providing life-wide learning activities for our students. One cannot deny that learning should not be confined by walls. Instead, the beauty of learning lies in learning everywhere at any time. Apart from these, we believe that life-planning and career guidance activities are essential for our students. While junior forms’ students have all these scheduled in their class teacher periods and assemblies, we have set aside biweekly OLE periods for senior forms’ students so that more workshops from different organizations and companies and individual guidance & counselling services related to students’ further studies and career choices can be provided.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: To optimize the effectiveness of learning and teaching, build up students' confidence in learning and implement positive education. School Management Organisation: There are committees and task groups working collaboratively to carry out the school policies. The "School Consultative Board" and the "School Administration Board" have been set up to discuss major issues about school development. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: The Incorporated Management Committee was established in September 2007 for school planning and management. School Green Policy: We widely use energy-saving electrical appliances. We separate waste like paper, plastic bottles and aluminum cans for recycling. We grow a lot of plants in the campus. Each class has to sign the Environmental Protection Charter. Some students are appointed Environmental Protection Ambassadors to promote conservation education. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: With the enforcement of the fine-tuning of Medium of Instruction Policy, our school allocates the lesson time allowed for extended learning activities in English to the teaching of Mathematics from S.1 to S.6, Integrated Science (Physics & Chemistry Units) in S.1 and S.2. Different strategies such as promoting the Extensive Reading Scheme and remedial teaching are used to enhance effective English learning. S.4 to S.6 English split classes are set up to help both the academically stronger and weaker students. There are English Enhancement classes on Saturdays and summer holidays and various English activities like English Week and English Assembly throughout the school year. A native English teacher helps organize different English activities and speaking practices for students. An LAC curriculum has been developed for S.1 and S.2. Learning and Teaching Strategies: To improve the quality of learning and teaching, our school has been making effort to design a wide-ranging curriculum to cater for the diverse abilities of students. Split class teaching is adopted in the three core subjects, namely, English, Chinese and Mathematics. Collaboration, peer observations and professional sharing are common among teachers. Other than the formal curriculum, our school also emphasizes the whole person development of students. Senior students are encouraged to participate in local & overseas study tours, which broaden students' horizons. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X. Eleven elective subjects in F.4 to F.6 are divided into 2 blocks and students select one subject from each block. 2. Curriculum highlights: School-based curriculum includes Project Learning in Junior forms, reading lessons in all forms and "Language Across Curriculum" in F.1 and F.2 to enhance learning interest and English standards. Development of Key Tasks: 1. Liberal Studies: Our school has started Liberal Studies for junior form students since 2006 in order to lay a solid foundation and better equip their senior level learning. Various modes of teaching are used to cater for learners' diversity. 2. Reading to Learn: To create reading culture, the "Reading Programme" has been introduced since 2002. In order to foster students a habit of reading different kinds of materials, inter-disciplinary cooperation is not missing. During morning reading, students are required to read books in English and materials on moral and civic education. To tie in the Three-Year Development Plan, certain areas are set for senior form students in the oral presentation in junior classes. The “Cross KLA Reading Programme” and the “E-Reading Programme” are implemented with the help of IT to help students share the joy of reading. 3. Information Technology for Interactive Learning: Students are encouraged to learn English via "English Builder" which is an online, self-access English learning platform. It enriches students' English vocabulary, enhances their social awareness and refines their listening, reading and writing skills. 4. Project Learning: Project Learning trains students' generic skills like collaboration skills, communication skills and creativity. It also develops in them a good learning attitude. In our school, at least one project learning activity is held for junior form students every year. Careful discussion is carried out to set the sub-title, direction and questionnaire. Analysis of the data collected is done before class presentation is given. 5. Moral & Civic Education: We foster student's positive values and attitudes through the learning and teaching of various key learning areas and the provision of relevant learning experiences. Besides, the Life Education Committee organizes moral education lessons in the assembly period and various activities such as talks and group discussion to empower students to build a healthy, safe and positive life. Career and Life Planning: Careers and Life Planning Committee has set different themes for different forms, namely “Understanding oneself and people around” in S.1 and S.2, “Preparing themselves for senior secondary studies” in S.3, "Goal-setting" in S.4, "Reflection on the directions of career planning" in S.5 and "Career decision-making skills" in S.6. In order to help senior form students explore their future, we co-organize a variety of activities and talks with NGOs and tertiary institutions to help students develop their skills in interviewing, problem tackling and career planning in the future. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: Teachers vary their teaching methods and materials to cater for the diverse needs of students. Also, students are supported through small-class teaching, life programmes, co-curricular activities and social services. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: The Student Support Team of our school consists of 13 members, including the vice principal, a school social worker responsible for SEN students, team leaders, teachers of the Chinese Language, the English Language, Mathematics and Liberal Studies along with teachers of the discipline and counselling teams. The Support Team members strive to promote a whole school approach in the school through the adoption of assessment accommodation, after-school remedial classes, individual counselling, peer support, etc. so as to cater for learner diversity among students, enhance the understanding of inclusiveness among our teachers and students and instill an inclusive culture.

Our school has been providing a range of support for students with special needs by deploying learning support grants. Our support includes individual counselling, Individual Education Plans, various types of therapy sessions such as Speech Therapy, Music Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Art Therapy, as well as adventure activities, career life planning activities, Chinese writing class, parent support groups, social skills training, assessment accommodation, etc. In addition, in order to foster integrated education, other students are invited to participate in some activities for achieving our goal of inclusiveness.

At the same time, our school understands that a close relationship between parents, the school and students is of the utmost importance. Therefore, our school holds parents’ meetings regularly to listen to the views of our parents, hoping that our students’ needs are met on all fronts and they can grow healthily. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: There are two examinations and two central tests in each school year and continuous assessments for all subjects. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: Our Parent-Teacher Association was set up in 2000 to promote a close home-school relationship. The association organizes various activities such as workshops, seminars and day camp for teachers, parents and students. Besides, a close liaison is maintained through the school website and periodic newsletters. Since 2007, parents may help in the management & policy making of our school by joining the Incorporated Management Committee. School Ethos: The “Discipline-Counselling-in-One Policy” is adopted to reinforce our major concern and to build an atmosphere of “Love and Concern”. Personal Development Award Scheme and Star Award Scheme are carried out to encourage students to make progress and to develop them in moral, intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic education. Future Development School Development Plan: Positive Education helps students develop their personal qualities, establish a caring culture and cultivate their citizenship. To enhance students' sense of achievement and improve their motivation to learn, we optimise the continuous assessment of each subject. We also offer diversified learning activities like e-learning to optimise the effectiveness of learning and teaching. Teacher Professional Training and Development: The teacher development committee designs sharing and training programmes for teachers. Teachers are well informed of the new changes in professional development and sponsored by school so that a sharing culture has been developed to enhance teaching effectiveness. Life-wide Learning Activities including Five Essential Learning Experiences, Key Learning Areas, Extra-curricular Activities, Co-curricular Activities, etc. Our school provides a variety of extra-curricular activities through more than 30 academic societies, interest groups, sports clubs and school teams which hold competitions and activities regularly to nurture positive thinking, exploit individual's potential and foster self-management ability.

School Management Organisation: There are several committees and groups within the school responsible for handling administrative matters, curriculum development, educational technology, extra-curricular activities, civic & moral education, student support, life planning and career guidance, life education. In addition, our school has also established a Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) and School Alumni Association to strengthen the relationship between the various stakeholders. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: Our school established the "Hong Kong Weaving Mills Association Incorporated Management Committee" in August 2007. Our management committee members encompass representatives of teachers, parents, alumni as well as delegates from sponsoring bodies. It strengthens communication between different stakeholders and enhances the school effectiveness. School Green Policy: The school puts great emphasis on creating a green environment, cultivating plants and flowers within the school grounds, including ‘Hydroponics’ and ‘Gardening Club’ to enable students to learn more about planting and inculcate a love for nature. The school often organizes and participates in environment-themed activities, such as Inter-school Eco Quiz competition, School Energy Saving Programme, Green Carnival, etc. These activities let students develop environmental-consciousness from a young age. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Biliteracy and trilingualism are greatly emphasized in our school and we aim to create an effective learning environment for students. Our school has more than two native English and Putonghua teachers. Oral discussions with the native-speaking English and Putonghua teachers are arranged for students after class. The setting up of the English Corner also creates a platform for students to talk to our NET. In addition, a wide variety of outdoor language learning activities, such as the Hong Kong Speech Festival (English, Putonghua and Cantonese groups), English drama etc. are organized in order to provide more opportunities for students to exercise biliteracy and trilingualism. Our school also implements some free programmes, for example, after-class tutorials, English Enhancement Programme, Enrichment and Remedial Classes, to support students' learning. Furthermore, we keep cultivating reading habits of our students and encouraging them to take part in inter-school Chinese/English Composition Competition which helps raise their language learning abilities. Learning and Teaching Strategies: According to students’ learning abilities and needs, our school has adopted a small class teaching approach and tailor-made a comprehensive school curriculum. Apart from classroom learning, we also encourage our students to participate in outdoor learning activities in order to broaden their horizons and experience. Besides, our fellow teachers are encouraged to prepare teaching materials together and conduct peer lesson observation. They can share their teaching strategies and skills mutually and increase the effectiveness of students’ learning. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X. Our school offers two groups of elective subjects, and students may choose one subject from each group. The subjects are offered in accordance to students' interests. 2. Curriculum highlights: In order to meet the learning needs of different students, we tailor-made the syllabus of each subject for our students in accordance with their potential and needs, and cater for their learning differences. Development of Key Tasks: We are keen to cultivate our students’ reading habits. Through Morning Reading Sessions, Chinese and English Reading Award Scheme, Good Books Sharing and Recommendation and other inter-subject related reading activities, students’ reading interest is cultivated and their writing skills are embellished. In addition, we have already widely adopted information technology in teaching. Multi-media teaching devices and visualizers have been installed in all classrooms. The elements of moral and civic education are diffused into each subject at school as well. The School Campus TV has produced a series of moral videos and they are broadcast during the moral lessons. Different guests are often invited to deliver a speech to our students in order to promote their moral and civic consciousness. Inter-subject project learning is conducted in junior forms and students perform enthusiastically and learn seriously. Career and Life Planning: Our school has arranged a variety of activities, visits, seminars, workshops and parents’ day to provide students and parents with updated information about further studies and careers. For example, we have offered taster programmes on elective subject selection for S.3 students; organized senior students to attend College and University Open Days, an Overseas Education Exhibition and Talks on Further Studies in Mainland, Taiwan and Macau.

Besides providing After-school Tutorials and Enrichment Programmes, lessons are tailored to suit students’ different learning needs.

Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: The Student Support Committee includes the following core members: Vice-Principal, Counselling Master, Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO), social worker, educational psychologist as well as teachers from the Chinese, English, Mathematics and Liberal Studies Departments. Our school uses the Learning Support Grant to hire professional services (e.g. counselling, speech therapy, literacy and art classes) so as to provide appropriate support for students.

We provide a range of counselling services for some weak students to help them build up their self-image and self-esteem. Besides, the school also offers ‘Enrichment Programme’, ‘After-school Tutorial’ and other learning support activities. These activities help motivate students’ learning, prepare them to sit for the public examinations and hence further enhance their academic performances.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: 1. To cater for learners' diversity and enhance students' learning effectiveness: to develop a school-based learning activity sequence framework to cater for different learning styles (visual, audio, kinesthetic and tactile) and provide worksheets that cater for different standards so as to challenge the capable ones and encourage the less capable ones; 2. To implement life education and life and career planning, we strive to help our students develop positive values and to equip them to face adversity. School Management Organisation: There are three core organisations in KLSS: the School Management Committee, the Academic Team and the Student Pastoral Care Team which work closely on planning and implementing school policies. Furthermore, KLSS encourages teachers' participation in decision making. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: An Incorporated Management Committee has been set up. School Green Policy: Our curriculum 'Inspiring Creativity and Environmental Thinking' was awarded the Chief Executive’s Award for Teaching Excellence in Technology Education.This shows teaching and environmental education are inter-related. We have promoted Green Education since 1998 and we integrate Green Education into our curriculum. The ideas have been shared among others. We continuously update and modify content and approaches to Environmental Protection Policy. In 2015-16, we participated in YMCA 'Waste Reduction@Campus Project' and many students were trained as Waste Auditors. In 2016-17, we took part in Community Involvement Projects for Municipal Solid Waste. In December 2016, we participated in 'Kwun Tong Community Green Station'. In 2017-18, we took part in 'School Electricity Usage Scheme - Auditor Ambassador Programme'. Our vision is to nurture cooperation on sustainable development of a green society. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Chinese is the medium of instruction (MOI) in almost every subject, with the following exceptions: (1) S.1-S.6 English lessons; (2) Putonghua, which is used as the MOI in at least one Chinese Language Class in S.1, S.2 and S.3; (3) One class in S.1 will use English to go through the relevant subject concepts and contents in Liberal Studies and Science that have already been taught through mother tongue. One class of S.2 use English to teach Mathematics and some modules in Science. One class of S.3 use English to teach Mathematics. Learning and Teaching Strategies: We constantly strive to enhance the effectiveness of our teaching and student learning. 1. We have benefited from the theory of 'Chenggon Education' i.e. we create as many opportunities as possible for students to achieve success and reach their full potential. We set appropriate assignments and give quick feedback so that they can grasp the basics step by step; 2. We also use cooperative learning strategies and promote e-learning including STEM education; 3. Most subject panels in KLSS have developed learning materials to cater for students' learning diversities. 4. All Panels teach students subject-related learning strategies. 5. Other strategies include: S.1-S.3 Chinese, English and Mathematics set classes, After-school 'Finish Your Assignment Classes', S.4-S.6 Enhancement Schemes. We also employ a tutor, who is stationed in the Library from 4pm to 7pm, to help students with their homework. School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X. (2X + Mathematics Extended Part Module 2) 2. Curriculum highlights: (1) The school has developed an S.1-S.3 school-based English curriculum to meet the needs of our students; (2) Emphasise on catering for various learning strategies in order to cater for different learning styles; (3) There is collaboration between the PSHE subjects in order to reinforce the learning and teaching of Liberal Studies; (4) 3D printing courses have been set up to promote the application of new technology. Development of Key Tasks: Reading to Learn: We put a lot of emphasis on encouraging our students to develop good reading habits. We have a 'Twenty Minute Morning Reading' Scheme, and we have implemented the Extensive Reading Scheme and an oral book recommendation activity. For every subject they take, students must read a book related to the topic. Furthermore, we have launched 'Reading Cafe' to promote students' interests in reading. 2. WIFI connection has been installed in the school. We also have VR (Virtual Reality) teaching and use 'i-Pad' to support e-learning. Finally, 'Google Classroom' has become our whole-school learning platform. 3. For Project Learning: From S.1 to S.3, all students have to complete a specified number of systematically designed projects which are cross-curricular in nature, and have a Liberal Studies and Humanities strand. Career and Life Planning: 1. KLSS has implemented personal and whole-school counselling practices to cater for students’ needs in accordance with the school’s development plan and the students' changing social needs. 2. KLSS fosters the development of sound values in its students, so that these positive attitudes will flow through to their career planning, thus ensuring their success in the years to come. 3. KLSS cooperates with NGOs to provide S.6 students with career-oriented OLE activities in order to equip them with the most up-to-date information for their career and life planning. 4. KLSS cooperates with Harriman Property Management, LWK & Partners (HK) Ltd, Grand Hyatt Hong Kong, Zuni Icosahedron, Hong Kong Oapes, Coffee Maker, etc, to provide job tasting programmes for students. Our teachers strive to enable students to understand themselves in terms of character, values and needs, in order to develop their personal interests and individual potential through their future choice of careers. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: The school has participated in the 'School-based Professional Support Program' of the Education Bureau. With the main focus being learner diversity. A pilot program in the form of 'Lesson Study' has been conducted in junior forms in the different learning areas. Teaching approaches and materials have been adapted and modified to accommodate different learning abilities. In addition to developing a school-based Learning Activity Sequence framework, teachers of the program from different subject areas have conducted open lessons in the First and Second school terms. The Lesson Study, 'Collaborative Lesson Planning, Lesson Observations and Post-lesson Evaluation' has been implemented in order to develop teaching strategies, core learning materials and activities for our diverse learners. Over two thirds of our teachers have taken part in 'Lesson Studies' throughout the school year. A variety of teaching materials including worksheets from basic to advanced levels are used to meet the learning needs of our students. Other strategies used in our school include: interactive teaching, layered questioning skills, collaborative learning, project learning, interdisciplinary collaboration, as well as enhancement and remedial classes at all form levels. With regard to assessments, the school has purchased 6 notebooks with “speech to text software” to support senior form students with severe dyslexia. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: Students who encounter learning difficulties are clinically assessed by qualified education psychologists and helped by our Special Education Needs Coordinator and cross-disciplinary teams of psychology practitioners using a variety of methodologies (e.g. various therapies, training in reading and writing, etc). After-school tutorials are held at least once a week for core subjects. A 'Lunchtime Buddy Program' and Friendship Support Groups are provided to help students deal with academic and emotional problems. A full-time social worker is also available. The student's learning progress is monitored by teachers. The Counselling Team discusses and plans academic and career strategies with S.4-S.6 students. Subject teachers, class teachers and the Student Support Team, which is headed by the principal, meet regularly to discuss curriculum, learning and teaching (including in-class collaboration and post-lesson support pilot scheme) as well as assessment strategies. They also regularly meet parents to discuss their child’s progress. Finally, our teaching staff is eager to participate in a variety of professional training activities. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: There are two mid-term tests and examinations as well as continuous assessments. This diversified mode of assessment improves teaching effectiveness and reflects students' performance holistically, addresses learning diversity and promote learning and teaching effectiveness. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: The PTA aims to help both students and parents build a sense of belonging in the school. It also works very hard to enhance the communication between students, parents and the school, through a variety of activities, including afternoon tea gatherings, barbecues, cooking classes, voluntary service and Care Programs for students sitting for public examinations. This fosters a more caring interaction between the school and the students. School Ethos: KLSS received the 'Inviting School Fidelity Award' for the year 2017 and 'Outstanding Caring School for Promoting Career and Life Planning Education' in 2018. A whole-school approach to counselling, discipline, co-curricular activities, civic education and advice for careers and further studies, is used to meet our students' needs in the areas of physical, aesthetic and emotional development, life skills, moral values, family and inter-personal relationships. There is a monthly whole school moral theme - courtesy, respect, commitment, developing a sense of responsibility, self-discipline, integrity, caring, gratitude, optimism and perseverance. There are also inter-class competitions, weekly assemblies, level meetings and class periods - all designed to cultivate positive values and healthy attitudes in students. The aim is to equip the students with the positive attitudes they need to face future challenges. In 2017-20, our three-year major objective is to promote life education and life planning.

School Characteristics School Management School's Major Concerns: 1. Training students to be good citizens in a caring society who are well-mannered, respectful, honest and righteous; 2. Engaging students in learning to promote sharing. School Management Organisation: The School Executive Committee (SEC) was established at the opening of the school. Its members include the principal, the vice principals, department heads and teacher representatives. The SEC and task forces prepare and plan school affairs under the principal’s supervision with a view to enhancing front-line teachers’ participation, thereby implementing different levels of work to benefit students. The two vice principals are in charge of the academic and pastoral departments respectively. All teachers are involved in the implementation of the school routines. The management dedicates its effort to encouraging teachers’ participation in the school development in order to handle constant changes in society. Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee: The IMC is composed of the people from the commercial, legal, financial, logistics sectors and the general public. It holds meetings on a regular basis, formulates school policies, examines school reports, development plans, budgets, etc. The Management Committee provides the school with sufficient support to improve the facilities on campus. School Green Policy: Students gain environmental protection knowledge through moral and civic lessons. S.1 and S.2 students who have lunch at school are required to bring their own cutlery and provided with reusable lunch boxes. In order to save energy, air conditioners have to be switched off after the on-campus lunch period. To strengthen students’ sense of environmental protection and energy saving, activities like the Countryside Cleanup, the Inter-class Used Clothes Recycling Competition, Waste Paper Recycling Competition and No Air Con Day are held. Students also have a chance to serve as ambassadors to promote environmental protection. Other ways to save energy include the installation of T5 LED lighting tubes, rewiring, roof insulation. To encourage recycling, there are collection boxes for used paper, aluminium cans, etc. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Bi-literacy and Tri-lingualism is given top priority. In order to enhance students’ interest in English, diverse activities are held on a regular basis, for example, English Day on Thursdays, yearly theme-based English Week, Reading Aloud Scheme, English Ambassador Scheme, Campus Word Card, a Sentence a Day, etc. To enhance English learning, an English learning centre has been established and annual English Summer Camp are subsidized by the IMC. To strengthen students’ proficiency in English, other subjects even design different English extended learning activities. Besides English, the Chinese department puts a focus on students’ writing proficiency and public speaking ability. To expose students to the use of Putonghua, this subject has even become part of the school’s regular curriculum and students have a chance to practice it on Putonghua Day. Learning and Teaching Strategies: Based on the principle of Bi-literacy and Tri-lingualism, students receive language training. With a view to strengthening interaction in lessons, enhancing interest in learning and even encouraging self-learning, our school values the application of diverse teaching approaches and promotes engaged learning. Students are expected to strike a balance between subjects of different kinds (i.e. Arts, science, business and technology). Some of the school’s curriculum for junior forms is school-based, for example, Liberal Studies, Environmental Studies, Visual Art, etc. Taking into account the students’ learning progress and the ever-changing society, each subject department may make amendments to teaching focuses, strategies, teaching materials (e.g. worksheets), online self-learning and discussion forums every year. Professional development for teachers is also high on the list of priorities. Our school is keen to carry out lesson studies, collaborative lesson planning, peer observation, collaboration between different subjects and even sharing between schools (both local and overseas schools). School-based Curriculum: 1. Electives: 2X and 3X. Students can choose two to three electives from the above, taking into account their own strengths and interests. 2. Curriculum highlights: - Development of Key Tasks: There are four key learning areas. Moral and civil education, which is part of the school’s regular curriculum, is organized by the pastoral department and implemented by class teachers. Its theme is “We are family” and it is planned to suit different forms. There is a connection between teachers’ sharing (i.e. A Thought for a Day) and its syllabus. Students can therefore reflect on their personal value more effectively. It is clearly beneficial to students’ growth and development of one’s personality. Our school strategically places emphasis on students’ self-learning. For instance, there is high order thinking practice in S.1 Liberal Studies and lesson studies in S.2 and 3. Students can gradually master the skills for learning. Going through these experiences, students need to study and digest information across different subjects, thereby sharpening their generic skills besides mastering knowledge. To promote reading, there is Reading Scheme held by the Chinese/ English departments and the library. In addition, there are specific strategies to boost English reading and sharing. For example, there is a morning reading period and English reading aloud scheme every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. English reading is a must for the first 10 days of a month. Some students serve as reading ambassadors to promote reading. Other ways include Reading Award Scheme, Book Recommendation, Reading Club, etc. eClass Learning Platform helps increase the efficiency and quality of learning, thereby consolidating subject knowledge and enhancing students’ self-learning. Career and Life Planning: Please refer to "others". Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: To raise students’ confidence and the effectiveness of teaching and learning, lessons and activities are planned based on students’ ability. In addition to split classes and groups, our Gifted Education Team recommends elite students to take gifted education courses so that they can develop their talents. To take care of students with special educational needs, SEN Team devises support programmes as well as special examination and assessment arrangements. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: Through the whole-school approach, integrated education is implemented to build an inclusive and caring school environment in which students with special education needs (SEN) can be provided with comprehensive and appropriate support. Student Support Team (SST), including Vice Principal (Pastoral), SEN Coordinator, Guidance Supervisor, core subject teachers, our school social workers, an educational psychologist and a speech therapist, is set up to devise suitable support programmes for students with SEN. To enhance understanding of integrated education, all teachers are kept informed of relevant information from time to time. If necessary, subject talks are held to share teaching adaptations and suggestions for SEN students. Our teaching staff are encouraged to attend the training courses organized by the Education Bureau to enrich their professional knowledge of integrated education. Our school flexibly utilizes the Learning Support Grant. For instance, a teaching assistant is recruited to provide students in need with group or individual counselling. To increase students’ learning efficacy, enhance communication and instill a positive attitude and confidence into their life values through transdisciplinary cooperation, SST takes into account each student’s needs to provide relevant professional services such as training on social skills, language remedial teaching, speech therapy and educational psychology services with parents’ consent. Home-school cooperation is our top priority. To provide SEN students with support for their learning and growth, a communication channel has been set up between SST and parents so that they can be kept informed of their children’s learning progress and give advice. Education Support for Non-Chinese Speaking (NCS) Students: Our school provides additional support for NCS students to facilitate their learning of Chinese: Strategies for curriculum adaptation and relevant support are adopted according to students’ abilities and needs. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: Besides examinations, students’ learning progress can be observed in students’ performance report in each term. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: To enhance family relationships and students’ sense of belonging to the school, parents’ talks and family activities are held. In addition, there is collaboration between schools at festivals, which aims at enhancing students’ understanding of Chinese culture and its traditions. It is a crucial factor in developing a right attitude citizens and nationals should take. School Ethos: Our school embodies the culture of simplicity. We aim at cultivating students' good character, moral traits and consciousness of citizenship. To take better care of our students, enhance class discipline and build students’ sense of belonging, two teachers work as a pair for each junior class. To build confidence and develop a proactive attitude, students are provided with chances to pay educational visits, join exchange programmes and offer community service, thereby broadening their horizons. In addition, elite students are role models and they take a student leadership role. Our school has designed Award Scheme to motivate students to learn and provide a classroom for after-school self-learning. Both the School Management Committee and the Parent-Teacher Association have set up a scholarship respectively to reward students for their excellence in conduct and assessment. To raise students’ awareness to the health of one’s body, mind and spirit and the importance of environmental protection, Healthy School Policy has been adopted. Future Development School Development Plan: The three-year plan for 2018 to 2021: 1. Nurturing virtues and values to benefit everyone and their lives; 2. Engaging students in learning to achieve a better goal.

This academic year’s major concerns: 1. Training students to be good citizens in a caring society who are well-mannered, respectful, honest and righteous; 2. Engaging students in learning to promote sharing. Teacher Professional Training and Development: Teacher professional development is conducted through lesson studies, peer observation and sharing. In addition, teachers are encouraged to pursue their studies, share views on teaching and work with colleagues and even counterparts from other schools in order to broaden horizons and boost teaching effectiveness. Life-wide Learning Activities including Five Essential Learning Experiences, Key Learning Areas, Extra-curricular Activities, Co-curricular Activities, etc. The OLE activities for senior forms and co-curricular activities for junior forms are balanced and diverse. They include academic, interest, sports, arts, discipline and leadership training classes. In addition, students have chances to visit Mainland China and other countries. They can also join exchange programmes and community service. Our school has triumphed at inter-school competitions and received numerous awards, for example, I.T. application, website design, project learning, etc. Through OLE (Other Learning Experiences), senior form students are exposed to knowledge other than regular courses. To encourage students to pursue their own interests and develop their talents, the OLE activities are designed based on the junior form curricula of extra-curricular activities and experiences. In addition to regular class time, OLE provides students with other learning experiences including Moral and Civic Education, Social Services, work-related experience, art development and physical education. The ultimate goal is to broaden students’ horizons, nurture students’ positive values, strike a balance between regular courses and provide more opportunities for whole person development.

Life Planning: (1) Development Highlights: "Dreams and Success" and "Learning Driven by Dreams". Planned Development: To train our students to formulate a right action plan based on complete mastery of all different factors. Reason: There is a great need for students to make a right decision for life planning in this ever-changing society so that they can find it less challenging to cope with future changes. (2) Junior / Senior Forms: Objective of Junior Forms: The Life Planning course aims to guide students to be better acquainted with themselves and different types of occupations. Its lessons are mainly conducted through games. In general, it does not focus much on the details of life planning as students at this stage have not fully developed their integrated ability. Nevertheless, for S.3 students, the course aims to introduce how the selection of electives is related to their future careers. Objective of Senior Forms: Students are required to complete their Life Planning proposal. In S.4, they start to learn how to formulate an action plan (including setting long-term, medium-term and short-term goals). In S.5 and S.6, their personal cases are followed up by either teachers or counsellors who guide them to gradually achieve their dreams by drawing on their short-term goals. In addition, advice is given to students in need of adjustments to their plans, if necessary. (3) Parents: A number of parents’ talks are held for S.3 to S.6. They aim to show parents what their sons or daughters need at different stages more clearly. Students in their adolescence can therefore handle their emotions and stress more effectively.

Our school responds actively to social environmental protection activities. This vital concept is also transmitted to students through various subject curricula and extra-curricular activities. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: Chinese as the medium of instruction is basically adopted. Some subjects would provide adequate extensive English learning opportunities in order to raise students' English standard. Learning and Teaching Strategies: With the promotion of IT in education, our school has enhanced the IT infrastructure and re-engineered the operation mode. Various subjects have made use of IT as a tool to transform pedagogical and assessment practices. In order to promote the self-directed learning in our school, we are aiming at equipping our students with necessary study and learning skills to improve their learning outcome. At the same time, we have provided various learning programmes, such as the Learning Circle for senior form students, Pre-exam Study Class for junior form students, inter-class competition for F.1 and F.2, for students to develop their habit in diagnosing their learning needs, formulating learning goals, choosing and implementing appropriate learning strategies and evaluating their own learning outcomes.

Career and Life Planning: Our Careers Guidance Commission aims to provide students with information, guidance and assistance in their career development and further education. In junior forms, our aims are to help students understand the importance of laying a strong foundation in their studies, especially in their further education; to help them understand their interests and abilities and identify if they align with their dream jobs and to help them learn about jobs in our society and the basic qualifications and skills required by organizing talks and activities. We also organize activities for Form Three students to help them learn about the subjects in senior forms and the relationship between their learning style and their subject choices by using Learning Style Inventory so that they know how to choose subjects that are appropriate. For our senior form students, we strive to help students develop their own academic and career aspirations and encourage them to make informed and responsible choices on their learning, occupations and career goals as well as other aspects of life.

To allocate more manpower resources, three associate teachers are recruited to provide assistance to teachers and support to students with special educational needs. In addition, outsourcing services, like focus training groups, literacy training groups and speech therapy sessions are deployed to provide SEN students with necessary individualized support according to their support needs. As for internal examinations and assessments, special arrangements are given to these students. For students who have severe special learning needs, further assessments and referrals would be provided. Moreover, members of the Student Support Team would collaborate with different subject teachers, and design individualized study plans for them. As part of the whole school approach, our students are encouraged to provide peer support to SEN students. Programmes, like ‘Friends Reading’ Scheme, are launched to enhance interaction and collaboration among students. Regular meetings are held between parents and teachers.

By encouraging independent learning skills, students take responsibility for their own learning outcomes, apply common skills they have acquired from all subjects, think about different perspectives, organize their ideas logically and make use of communication skills to work cooperatively. All of these are very significant learning outcomes in the new secondary school curriculum. For some subjects, e-learning is conducted to facilitate teacher-student interaction. The school takes moral education very highly.

Teachers and students explore various issues in class in order to establish the correct values and attitudes towards life. 'Views on money' and 'respect for others' are two of the main issues. In addition, various seminars and activities on moral and civic education are held in assemblies and after-school to foster all-round development among students. Career and Life Planning: Career and life planning is the process of thinking about the future, taking action and exploring directions. Our school puts particular emphasis on developing students' career and life planning. For junior form students, our school organizes different types of activities, such as self-understanding workshops, seminars on how to choose subjects for students and parents and other careers workshops. In this way, students can be inspired to explore different careers, understand the relationship between occupations and interests and set goals. Our school will also help senior form students set career development plans according to their individual interests, abilities and expectations. Activities include career interest tests, workplace visits, job internship programs, mentorship program, multi-path talks, group counselling services, mock release of public examination results, mock interview workshops, workshops on writing a cover letter and resume. Students are expected to step into the world of work and are prepared for lifelong learning. Student Support Whole School Approach to Cater for Student Diversity: The school pays particular attention to cater for student diversity. To make it easier to cater for student diversity, class sizes in core subjects have been reduced where possible and remedial and elite classes are provided. Students who are of average abilities are encouraged to strive for excellence and high achievers are selected to participate in activities including competitions outside school to further develop their abilities. Whole School Approach to Integrated Education: Coordinated by the newly set up Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator and the Student Support Team, with the support of the Counselling and Guidance Committee, form teachers, subject teachers, the school social workers, the educational psychologist and the speech therapist, support measures are in place for facilitating the learning and growth of students. The school also makes use of the Learning Support Grant to implement support programmes such as the executive function skills training program, social skills training program, occupational therapy, and art therapy. With various measures in training, counselling, adapted learning, and home-school cooperation, it is hoped that students can be more ready to tackle the challenges in learning and in their daily lives. Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment: There is one examination in the first term, and one mid-term test and one examination in the second term. The score obtained in the mid-term test and examination accounts for 80% of the total mark shown on the report card. The remaining 20% comes from continuous assessments throughout the term, including the scores obtained from homework, group projects and quizzes. Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos Home-School Co-operation: The school invites members of the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) to assist the school to organize different activities, such as the 'Fruit Day' to help sell fruit. To strengthen communication between the school and the PTA, a meeting is held with representatives of teachers on a regular basis to discuss various issues and give advice to the school. Different activities are organized for parents and students to promote communication between parents and their children on one hand, and to develop students with a sense of belonging to the school on the other. The PTA also provides funding to improve school facilities so as to enhance the learning environment for students. In addition, scholarships are set up, encouraging students to go for all-round development. School Ethos: The school maintains a healthy, balanced and pleasant ethos. Teachers and students are positive and accommodating. They maintain open minds to embrace new ideas and broaden their horizons. Two social workers and an educational psychologist from Christian Family Service Centre and Sheng Kung Hui respectively provide counselling service for students. The Counselling Committee consists of experienced teachers who actively implement a range of schemes to support students. Future Development School Development Plan: School focus of the year: 1. To further enhance students' and teachers' capacity for life-long learning; 2. To further strengthen students’ positive values through the acquisition of life planning skills.

Campus greenery like rooftop garden, external vertical planting walls, decorative plantings, energy saving measures like minimizing the use of lighting and air-conditioning, are all parts of the educational tools to form students' habits to live a more sustainable life style. Furthermore, the school has installed weather monitoring system and renewable energy generators to facilitate environmental protection education. Learning and Teaching Plan Whole-school Language Policy: We are an EMI school. Most of the academic subjects are taught in English. Some Chinese classes are taught in Putonghua. Besides bi-literate and trilingual linguistics, Japanese and French are offered as the third Language options. Learning and Teaching Strategies: We emphasize Biblical teaching, training in bi-literate and trilingual linguistic proficiency and thinking skills. We provide a diversified curriculum. We believe that: 1. People are created in the image of God; thus, every child is precious and intelligent; 2. Learning is a process to construct knowledge; 3. Learning should not be confined to classrooms, learning is not uni-directional but interactive; 4. Knowledge can also be obtained through learning communities; 5. Learning cultivates independent and critical thinking through inquiry. To develop students' active learning habits and help them build good characters, we introduce the following: 1) Establishing learning communities; 2) Using IT to promote interactive learning; 3) Broadening the learning sky and conglomerating social resources so that students' learning becomes more authentic and diversified; 4) Developing a school-based STEM program to equip students with related skills; 5) Emphasizing self-regulated learning attitude to enhance learning effectiveness.
