The application period for the 2024 Discretionary Places is from January 2 to January 16, 2024.

Parents of current Primary 6 students participating in the Secondary School Places Allocation (SSPA) will receive two copies of the Application Form for Secondary 1 Discretionary Places in early December 2023 through their children's elementary school.
