Secondary School Profiles 2019/2020 to be released tomorrow
***********************************************************
The Committee on Home-School Co-operation (CHSC) will release the e-version (in Chinese and English) of the Secondary School Profiles 2019/2020 tomorrow (December 5). The Chinese and English printed versions of the profiles will be delivered to primary schools for distribution to parents with children at the Primary Six level in the current school year.
The Secondary School Profiles 2019/2020 cover basic information on more than 400 secondary schools including teaching staff, class structure, school facilities, school characteristics, school life, extra-curricular activities, student support and the school curriculum, as well as the schools' teaching strategies, such as the whole-school language policy. The profiles contain information provided and verified by individual schools, showing their situations as at September 2019.
The publication of the profiles aims to provide comprehensive secondary school information for parents' reference. The profiles also include "A Message from CHSC Chairman", which states key points for parents when choosing schools.
The e-version of the profiles enables schools to update their information on the web directly whenever necessary, so that parents can obtain the most up-to-date school information.
The profiles will be uploaded to the website of the CHSC at www.chsc.hk/secondary/en. Copies of the printed version will be available for public reference at District Offices, public libraries, Regional Education Offices and the Central Resources Centre of the Education Bureau (EDB).
For enquiries about the profiles, please call the EDB's Regional Education Offices (Hong Kong: 2863 4646; Kowloon: 3698 4108; New Territories East: 2639 4876; and New Territories West: 2437 7272) or the CHSC Secretariat at 3698 4376.
