The school is a student-centered school that promotes group teaching to cater for students' learning diversity, and adapts and assesses the curriculum according to students' abilities. Through the "Star Project", the school provides advanced and intensive courses in small groups for outstanding and diligent students in different grades, so as to inspire students' thinking and enhance their learning abilities. The school has implemented the "Flipped Classroom" teaching strategy, and has fully implemented the "Bring Your Own Computer Device" policy to support e-learning and teaching of various subjects. In Chinese, English and Mathematics, the school has set up "Learning Frameworks" and set learning targets for different stages of learning to enhance students' learning. In addition, the school collaborates with tertiary institutions to design school-based technology courses with special characteristics. In junior secondary schools, "Information Literacy and Computational Thinking Education" and "Creativity" are introduced to enable students to develop their creativity and problem-solving skills through computer programming, designing and production of intelligent products. Secondary 2 participated in the "STEM in Action" program led by the Jockey Club and The Chinese University of Hong Kong, and with the support of the City University of Hong Kong and BioTrend, the teaching of Artificial Intelligence (AI) was implemented at Secondary 3 to keep abreast of the new trend of technological development.

Teacher professional training and development:

The school makes good use of internal and external resources, and through experience sharing, teachers develop a common vision of effective teaching and student development. Each subject has a weekly common lesson planning session or teaching and research period to enhance teaching effectiveness and to build a collaborative team culture. Principals and teachers are often invited to share their experiences with the school community. The school has been invited to participate in the Quality Education Fund's Thematic Networks (QTNs) to help teachers from participating schools to conduct research, develop STEM and promote AI teaching. In addition, some teachers have participated in the innopower project to optimize the junior secondary curriculum with innovative ideas to train students' autonomy in learning, explore their own interests, enhance their learning motivation and master their own 'learning journeys'. Starting from the 2021/22 school year, a school-based social-emotional learning curriculum has been introduced in the school. Through teaching and research workshops and collaborative lesson planning, teachers are gradually building up a professional learning community for values education, exploring strategies to promote students' positive thinking and positive attitudes towards life and sharing and exchanging ideas with each other.
