Curriculum
Our school uses English as the medium of instruction. Our policy is to create a language rich environment to train students to become bi-literate and tri-lingual. The policy is implemented through tri-lingual assemblies, English and Chinese extensive reading schemes, activities in English Corner, Society of Eloquence, English Week and Putonghua Club.
Curriculum reform and planning are carried out by the Academic Committee. Some subject panels participate in pilot schemes run by the Curriculum Development Institute of EDB.
Selected subjects under planning for the New Senior Secondary (NSS) curriculum in the 2009/10 s.y.: Economics, Geography, Chinese History, History, Ethics & Religious Studies, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Combined Science, Business, Accounting and Financial Studies, Information and Communication Technology, Visual Arts.

Famous quotes containing the word curriculum:
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
