| Language Policy |
We strive to enhance the bi-literate and tri-lingual abilities of students. iPads are regularly used to facilitate English learning. Differentiated instruction is implemented in junior forms so as to consolidate the foundation of students' English language learning. A team of NETs are employed to provide small group, authentic English language oral communication opportunities for students. Also, the setting-up of Café de Chan Wong provides an authentic learning environment for our students. Other English related learning activities include English Morning Assembly, English Week, overseas study tours, etc. The Language Across Curriculum approach is adopted so as to maximize language learning opportunities. Students are also encouraged to participate in School Speech Festivals. Besides, English is the medium of instruction for Mathematics and Science subjects in junior forms for some students so as to prepare them well for further education. |
| Learning and Teaching Strategies |
We promote self-regulated learning and teaching strategies by implementing ‘Learning Guide’ and ‘Flipped Classroom’. With the implementation of cooperative learning strategies, skills like collaboration, problem-solving, communication, etc. are enhanced. IT in education is also greatly promoted and BYOD policy has been implemented. Various apps and software are used to facilitate learning and teaching. Also, timely feedback and targeted attention can be provided to students. We attach great importance to teachers' professional development and leadership. Learning circles are formed in all subject panels. Peer lesson observation and collaborative lesson planning are arranged to ensure quality teaching. Small class teaching and co-teaching are organised in order to further reduce teacher-student ratio so as to strengthen students’ learning. In addition, there are after-school tutorials and revision groups. Afternoon lessons are specially set aside for self-regulated learning and DSE preparation. Two Diverse Learning Weeks are conducted to promote learning experience that encompass various aspects of life. Students are highly encouraged to join different learning activities with subsidies provided. |
