Our English curriculum
We believe every student can learn and should be able to do so in a pressure-free and pleasant environment. English is one of the languages that helps us to explore the world. Therefore, we have developed our school-based curriculum to adapt to the needs of our students. We have adopted “Reading across the Curriculum” (RaC) into our core curriculum. Our reader materials, exploring many different academic disciplines, are used to broaden our students’ horizons. Various teaching strategies and activities are employed in the lessons to make the learning experience more authentic and to cater for learner differences. We hope that our students can successfully learn and grow in our school.

Workshop on Reading across the Curriculum (RaC) in the primary English curriculum
Our learning
Since each individual is different and with different learning style, we employ various teaching strategies such as discussion, group work, games, shared reading and writing, videos, learning with I-pad and apps to cater for learner diversity. We hope our students can learn best and unfold their potential through learning in our school.

Book Presentation
Pupils do book presentation in class. It motivates pupils to read and build up their confidence in speaking. Pupils also upload their book sharing video clips in apps so that they can have more opportunities to practice.
P. 6 Interview training
Teachers guide P.5 and 6 pupils to do better in interviews for secondary school allocation. Teaching videos are shown and pupils do the self – introduction and presentation of some topics as required by teachers. Pupils have mock interviews with the NET and ELTA so that they gain the experience to talk to new teachers.
