Boundless Education
Beyond the boundaries of subjects: Integrated Learning
Our school changes the learning mode of a bounded single subject by restructuring and consolidating various subjects. Our school emphasizes cross-subjects collaboration by introducing cross-subjects curriculum such as, Integrated Humanities, Combined Science, Combined Arts and Life Education. By doing so, we hope to cultivate generic and practical skills of the students.
Beyond lesson time – Independent Learning
- Our school changes the learning mode of the existing fixed lesson time. Apart from adjusting the length of lesson time to cater for different teaching needs, we bring in independent reading session and after-school self-learning session. We also set up online self-learning curriculum and databank so that students are no longer constrained by lesson time. No matter after school, at home or even at whatever time, students can learn by themselves by logging in the databank of the school online. This enhances the learning effectiveness.
Beyond restriction of forms and classes – Catering for Learner Differences
- We reform the learning mode of fixed forms and classes. For the three core subjects, i.e. Chinese, English and Mathematics, we arrange students into different groups according to their learning abilities, instead of the traditional forms and classes, so as to cater for learner differences. Our teachers devise appropriate teaching materials and deploy suitable teaching strategies based on the features and needs of different learner groups. By doing so, we help students of different abilities to gains more in the lesson.
Beyond the boundary of classroom – Authentic Learning
- We go beyond classroom teaching. Students and teachers go outside the classrooms and the campus to practice Authentic Learning and explore various interactive learning experiences, such as project learning, social services, study tour and extra-curricular activities. Students can acquire all-rounded knowledge from diversified learning, and consolidate subject knowledge by practicing.
Beyond geographical boundary – Around-the-world Learning
- We no longer follow the traditional place-based learning mode. We encourage students to travel outside Hong Kong and explore the world. Our school has established partnership of teaching, continuing education as well as exchange scheme with education institutions around the world. Every year, we invite overseas scholars and students to visit us, or to lecture or exchange ideas by using internet or videoconferencing. We regularly arrange students to exchange or have study tour to overseas schools during extended holidays so that the thinking skills and the visions of our students can go beyond geographical boundary and cater for the global development.
