The Education Bureau (EDB) announced today (January 30) that following the deferral of class resumption after the Chinese New Year holidays for all schools in Hong Kong as well as the Government's appeal to employers to put in place flexible work arrangements, the deadline for submission of applications for the First School Allocation Exercise (SAE) 2020 will be extended from February 3 to February 17, 2020, to allow more time for prospective applicant bodies to prepare their applications. Detailed information on this SAE can be found on the EDB homepage
(www.edb.gov.hk/en/sch-admin/sch-premises-info/allocation-of-sch/index.html).
 
     The duly completed application form and supporting documents, together with 22 copies of the proposed school plan with the executive summary and the list of operating schools, if any, should reach the Infrastructure and Research Support Division of the EDB (6/F, East Wing, Central Government Offices, 2 Tim Mei Avenue, Tamar, Hong Kong) by 5pm on February 17, 2020. Late or incomplete applications, as well as applications via email, will not be processed.
