| Language Policy |
Our school adopts diversified MOI arrangements to cater for students' needs. English is used to teach Math in S.1- S.6. In the junior forms, some students are taught through English for certain subjects in the PSHE, Science and Technology KLA. For others, Chinese is adopted as the MOI complemented with lesson time of Extended Language Activities in English.<br>For the senior forms, students are allowed to choose English as the MOI for PSHE subjects, Science subjects and BAFS provided that they fulfill the school-based criteria. To maximize students' exposure to English, an English-rich environment is created on the campus. There are English assemblies, English-speaking Days and an array of English activities held throughout the year both inside and outside school. Junior form students have to fulfil the English extracurricular activities requirement and their participation is recorded in the report card. |
