Forms and Classes

We have a total of 38 classes in our school: 6 classes at each level from Form One to Five, 2 Arts classes and 2 Science classes in both Form Six and Seven. Each lower-form class consists of an average of 42 students, and about 35 to 40 per class in Form Four and Five.

In Form One to Three, students are roughly divided into two main groups according to their academic performance in Mathematics, and these students are assigned to different classes. This is not to discriminate against the academically less-inclined students, but to enable the better use of resources and teaching strategies. To meet the needs of students, for instance, remedial classes with smaller class size are conducted to facilitate maximum teacher-student interaction so as to attain a higher educational efficiency.

In all classes, the spirit of collaborative learning is encouraged. Students are engaged in group projects to foster their peer and team learning attitude and competence. Students' ranking is not printed on the report card, nor is it revealed to the homeroom teachers for the sake of eliminating unnecessary anxiety and competitiveness in students' own advancement.

Subjects offered for students from Form Four to Form Seven are listed below. The rationale behind is to widen the scope of knowledge of our students, enabling them to be well-rounded in their learning for life.

Academic Performance

For the all-round development of every individual student, it is not the school's policy to produce 10-A students in the HKCE Examination, hence no 10 subjects are offered at CE levels. Nevertheless, we do have quite a number of 9-A students who excelled in various aspects of the curriculum, and the percentage of Form Seven students being admitted to tertiary institutes has always been above 90. We surely know that competition for academic excellence is keen, and we dare not say that we are among the best, but our students' academic achievements have been fairly promising.

Schemes to Enhance Academic Performance

The school has employed a number of measures to boost students' academic competence and motivation to learn. One of them is the Reading Enhancement Scheme, which enhances students' self-monitored reading habit and even encourages their parents to be involved in the reading process by sharing their experience of reading with their children. The school library is very well-stocked with up-to-date reading materials and meticulously set to provide a cozy and resourceful study and learning environment.

Thanks to the generosity of various local organizations and our past students, a great number of scholarships are offered to students with good academic performance. There are also clubs like the Speech and Debating Society, Science Society, Chinese Culture Society, Maths Club, Economics Society, and so on that further provide authentic needs for students to put their academic knowledge into practice.
