2 Achievements and Reflection on Major Areas of Concern 21 Enhancing the Effectiveness of Learning and Teaching

211 Achievements Stepping into the final year in realizing the five foci at enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching set in the School Development Plan (2009ndash2012) namely enhancing teachersrsquo professional development arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning fostering studentsrsquo reading habits and catering for learner differences the school had been striving hard for the following accomplishments On enhancing teachersrsquo professional development on the average teachers had met the requirements of attending at least two seminars or workshops with which they felt satisfactory in

general in helping their professional development especially at enhancing their teaching effectiveness the average CPD hours of teachers had stayed at a fairly satisfactory level of approaching 35 hours in the last academic year teachers were used to engage themselves in formal and informal professional sharing like sharing what new and useful ideas methods

and strategies they had acquired when attending courses or seminars the various kinds of teaching resources which included teaching files teaching aids learning materials question banks and examination

papers for different levels and topics stored in the resources banks in the school intranet by different subjects had been accumulating and useful to teachers in accomplishing their different teaching needs

teachers had been making use of different kinds of lesson observation like peer lesson observation including those across the curriculum but within the same KLA as well as lesson observation for collaborative teaching to foster professional sharing

some interflow programmes were conducted to cater for the growth of teachersrsquo professionalism including the one with CCC Kei Long College for the Science and Mathematics teachers and the other one with the undergrads who were also teachers-to-be of Dongguk University of South Korea during which teachers could be inspired to reach new professional horizons on seeing the good education practices in different places in HK and in the world

some school visits were paid to Hong Kong International School and Canadian International School for the English and Information Technology teachers to learn from them the teaching experience in conducting e-learning and mobile learning

some staff mentoring programmes were held for new teaches (teachers with less than two years of teaching experience in this school) like sharing with them the ways to handle studentsrsquo behavioral problems in class and their lateness in submitting homework assignments

On arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation teachers had kept on improving their teaching strategies like

to include elements of enhancing more active student involvement and autonomy in classroom learning provoking high-order thinking and giving formative feedback in their lessons and especially in their collaborative teaching plans

to make use of the eLearning Pilot Scheme to design lesson materials with the application of iPads to enhance creative and interactive learning in especially S1 English lessons and many Computer or Information amp Communication Technology lessons

to apply the use of the electronic whiteboard and the Simultaneous Response System to foster interactive classroom learning in some Mathematics Computer Science Religious Education and Liberal Education lessons

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

Our school provided lots of opportunities for our students to serve the community in this way Through different organizations like Community Youth Club Girls Guides Junior Police Call Oxfam Club Red Cross Youth Unit and Zonta Z Club students could organize and take part in various activities to serve the community Flag selling charity sale blood donation day health project elderly centre visits were arranged for and by our students

2 Achievements and Reflection on Major Areas of Concern 21 Enhancing the Effectiveness of Learning and Teaching

211 Achievements Stepping into the final year in realizing the five foci at enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching set in the School Development Plan (2009ndash2012) namely enhancing teachersrsquo professional development arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning fostering studentsrsquo reading habits and catering for learner differences the school had been striving hard for the following accomplishments On enhancing teachersrsquo professional development on the average teachers had met the requirements of attending at least two seminars or workshops with which they felt satisfactory in

general in helping their professional development especially at enhancing their teaching effectiveness the average CPD hours of teachers had stayed at a fairly satisfactory level of approaching 35 hours in the last academic year teachers were used to engage themselves in formal and informal professional sharing like sharing what new and useful ideas methods

and strategies they had acquired when attending courses or seminars the various kinds of teaching resources which included teaching files teaching aids learning materials question banks and examination

papers for different levels and topics stored in the resources banks in the school intranet by different subjects had been accumulating and useful to teachers in accomplishing their different teaching needs

teachers had been making use of different kinds of lesson observation like peer lesson observation including those across the curriculum but within the same KLA as well as lesson observation for collaborative teaching to foster professional sharing

some interflow programmes were conducted to cater for the growth of teachersrsquo professionalism including the one with CCC Kei Long College for the Science and Mathematics teachers and the other one with the undergrads who were also teachers-to-be of Dongguk University of South Korea during which teachers could be inspired to reach new professional horizons on seeing the good education practices in different places in HK and in the world

some school visits were paid to Hong Kong International School and Canadian International School for the English and Information Technology teachers to learn from them the teaching experience in conducting e-learning and mobile learning

some staff mentoring programmes were held for new teaches (teachers with less than two years of teaching experience in this school) like sharing with them the ways to handle studentsrsquo behavioral problems in class and their lateness in submitting homework assignments

On arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation teachers had kept on improving their teaching strategies like

to include elements of enhancing more active student involvement and autonomy in classroom learning provoking high-order thinking and giving formative feedback in their lessons and especially in their collaborative teaching plans

to make use of the eLearning Pilot Scheme to design lesson materials with the application of iPads to enhance creative and interactive learning in especially S1 English lessons and many Computer or Information amp Communication Technology lessons

to apply the use of the electronic whiteboard and the Simultaneous Response System to foster interactive classroom learning in some Mathematics Computer Science Religious Education and Liberal Education lessons

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 11 -

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

Our school provided lots of opportunities for our students to serve the community in this way Through different organizations like Community Youth Club Girls Guides Junior Police Call Oxfam Club Red Cross Youth Unit and Zonta Z Club students could organize and take part in various activities to serve the community Flag selling charity sale blood donation day health project elderly centre visits were arranged for and by our students

2 Achievements and Reflection on Major Areas of Concern 21 Enhancing the Effectiveness of Learning and Teaching

211 Achievements Stepping into the final year in realizing the five foci at enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching set in the School Development Plan (2009ndash2012) namely enhancing teachersrsquo professional development arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning fostering studentsrsquo reading habits and catering for learner differences the school had been striving hard for the following accomplishments On enhancing teachersrsquo professional development on the average teachers had met the requirements of attending at least two seminars or workshops with which they felt satisfactory in

general in helping their professional development especially at enhancing their teaching effectiveness the average CPD hours of teachers had stayed at a fairly satisfactory level of approaching 35 hours in the last academic year teachers were used to engage themselves in formal and informal professional sharing like sharing what new and useful ideas methods

and strategies they had acquired when attending courses or seminars the various kinds of teaching resources which included teaching files teaching aids learning materials question banks and examination

papers for different levels and topics stored in the resources banks in the school intranet by different subjects had been accumulating and useful to teachers in accomplishing their different teaching needs

teachers had been making use of different kinds of lesson observation like peer lesson observation including those across the curriculum but within the same KLA as well as lesson observation for collaborative teaching to foster professional sharing

some interflow programmes were conducted to cater for the growth of teachersrsquo professionalism including the one with CCC Kei Long College for the Science and Mathematics teachers and the other one with the undergrads who were also teachers-to-be of Dongguk University of South Korea during which teachers could be inspired to reach new professional horizons on seeing the good education practices in different places in HK and in the world

some school visits were paid to Hong Kong International School and Canadian International School for the English and Information Technology teachers to learn from them the teaching experience in conducting e-learning and mobile learning

some staff mentoring programmes were held for new teaches (teachers with less than two years of teaching experience in this school) like sharing with them the ways to handle studentsrsquo behavioral problems in class and their lateness in submitting homework assignments

On arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation teachers had kept on improving their teaching strategies like

to include elements of enhancing more active student involvement and autonomy in classroom learning provoking high-order thinking and giving formative feedback in their lessons and especially in their collaborative teaching plans

to make use of the eLearning Pilot Scheme to design lesson materials with the application of iPads to enhance creative and interactive learning in especially S1 English lessons and many Computer or Information amp Communication Technology lessons

to apply the use of the electronic whiteboard and the Simultaneous Response System to foster interactive classroom learning in some Mathematics Computer Science Religious Education and Liberal Education lessons

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 11 -

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

self-reflection and completing the OEA form in JUPAS application each S6 student was given her SLP record in electronic form for her JUPAS application and future reference On implementing SBA of each subject subject panels with SBA in 2012 HKDSE had all drafted their SBA implementation plans with good details and carried out their plans

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

424 Community Service

Service Learning combined volunteer activities with the intent that the activities could change both the recipients and the providers of the service This was accomplished by combining service tasks with structured opportunities that linked the task to self-reflection self-discovery and the acquisition and comprehension of values skills and knowledge The best learning experience would not be gained by passive participation in school activities but was acquired in situations shaped and initiated by the students

Our school provided lots of opportunities for our students to serve the community in this way Through different organizations like Community Youth Club Girls Guides Junior Police Call Oxfam Club Red Cross Youth Unit and Zonta Z Club students could organize and take part in various activities to serve the community Flag selling charity sale blood donation day health project elderly centre visits were arranged for and by our students

2 Achievements and Reflection on Major Areas of Concern 21 Enhancing the Effectiveness of Learning and Teaching

211 Achievements Stepping into the final year in realizing the five foci at enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching set in the School Development Plan (2009ndash2012) namely enhancing teachersrsquo professional development arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning fostering studentsrsquo reading habits and catering for learner differences the school had been striving hard for the following accomplishments On enhancing teachersrsquo professional development on the average teachers had met the requirements of attending at least two seminars or workshops with which they felt satisfactory in

general in helping their professional development especially at enhancing their teaching effectiveness the average CPD hours of teachers had stayed at a fairly satisfactory level of approaching 35 hours in the last academic year teachers were used to engage themselves in formal and informal professional sharing like sharing what new and useful ideas methods

and strategies they had acquired when attending courses or seminars the various kinds of teaching resources which included teaching files teaching aids learning materials question banks and examination

papers for different levels and topics stored in the resources banks in the school intranet by different subjects had been accumulating and useful to teachers in accomplishing their different teaching needs

teachers had been making use of different kinds of lesson observation like peer lesson observation including those across the curriculum but within the same KLA as well as lesson observation for collaborative teaching to foster professional sharing

some interflow programmes were conducted to cater for the growth of teachersrsquo professionalism including the one with CCC Kei Long College for the Science and Mathematics teachers and the other one with the undergrads who were also teachers-to-be of Dongguk University of South Korea during which teachers could be inspired to reach new professional horizons on seeing the good education practices in different places in HK and in the world

some school visits were paid to Hong Kong International School and Canadian International School for the English and Information Technology teachers to learn from them the teaching experience in conducting e-learning and mobile learning

some staff mentoring programmes were held for new teaches (teachers with less than two years of teaching experience in this school) like sharing with them the ways to handle studentsrsquo behavioral problems in class and their lateness in submitting homework assignments

On arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation teachers had kept on improving their teaching strategies like

to include elements of enhancing more active student involvement and autonomy in classroom learning provoking high-order thinking and giving formative feedback in their lessons and especially in their collaborative teaching plans

to make use of the eLearning Pilot Scheme to design lesson materials with the application of iPads to enhance creative and interactive learning in especially S1 English lessons and many Computer or Information amp Communication Technology lessons

to apply the use of the electronic whiteboard and the Simultaneous Response System to foster interactive classroom learning in some Mathematics Computer Science Religious Education and Liberal Education lessons

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 11 -

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 13 -

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

Service Learning combined volunteer activities with the intent that the activities could change both the recipients and the providers of the service This was accomplished by combining service tasks with structured opportunities that linked the task to self-reflection self-discovery and the acquisition and comprehension of values skills and knowledge The best learning experience would not be gained by passive participation in school activities but was acquired in situations shaped and initiated by the students

Our school provided lots of opportunities for our students to serve the community in this way Through different organizations like Community Youth Club Girls Guides Junior Police Call Oxfam Club Red Cross Youth Unit and Zonta Z Club students could organize and take part in various activities to serve the community Flag selling charity sale blood donation day health project elderly centre visits were arranged for and by our students

2 Achievements and Reflection on Major Areas of Concern 21 Enhancing the Effectiveness of Learning and Teaching

211 Achievements Stepping into the final year in realizing the five foci at enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching set in the School Development Plan (2009ndash2012) namely enhancing teachersrsquo professional development arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning fostering studentsrsquo reading habits and catering for learner differences the school had been striving hard for the following accomplishments On enhancing teachersrsquo professional development on the average teachers had met the requirements of attending at least two seminars or workshops with which they felt satisfactory in

general in helping their professional development especially at enhancing their teaching effectiveness the average CPD hours of teachers had stayed at a fairly satisfactory level of approaching 35 hours in the last academic year teachers were used to engage themselves in formal and informal professional sharing like sharing what new and useful ideas methods

and strategies they had acquired when attending courses or seminars the various kinds of teaching resources which included teaching files teaching aids learning materials question banks and examination

papers for different levels and topics stored in the resources banks in the school intranet by different subjects had been accumulating and useful to teachers in accomplishing their different teaching needs

teachers had been making use of different kinds of lesson observation like peer lesson observation including those across the curriculum but within the same KLA as well as lesson observation for collaborative teaching to foster professional sharing

some interflow programmes were conducted to cater for the growth of teachersrsquo professionalism including the one with CCC Kei Long College for the Science and Mathematics teachers and the other one with the undergrads who were also teachers-to-be of Dongguk University of South Korea during which teachers could be inspired to reach new professional horizons on seeing the good education practices in different places in HK and in the world

some school visits were paid to Hong Kong International School and Canadian International School for the English and Information Technology teachers to learn from them the teaching experience in conducting e-learning and mobile learning

some staff mentoring programmes were held for new teaches (teachers with less than two years of teaching experience in this school) like sharing with them the ways to handle studentsrsquo behavioral problems in class and their lateness in submitting homework assignments

On arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation teachers had kept on improving their teaching strategies like

to include elements of enhancing more active student involvement and autonomy in classroom learning provoking high-order thinking and giving formative feedback in their lessons and especially in their collaborative teaching plans

to make use of the eLearning Pilot Scheme to design lesson materials with the application of iPads to enhance creative and interactive learning in especially S1 English lessons and many Computer or Information amp Communication Technology lessons

to apply the use of the electronic whiteboard and the Simultaneous Response System to foster interactive classroom learning in some Mathematics Computer Science Religious Education and Liberal Education lessons

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 11 -

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 13 -

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

23 Implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum 231 Achievements

With detailed planning and concerted efforts we have successfully implemented the first three-year cycle of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum We provide students with a diversified and balanced curriculum that would widen their horizons for whole person development Indeed studentsrsquo promising results in HKDSE bear witness to our tremendous effort in our planning and implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum The smooth and successful implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum was made with the foci on equipping the teachers and students for more effective teaching and learning refining the Other Learning Experiences (OLE) curriculum preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways establishing the Student Learning Profile (SLP) system devising the School-based Assessment (SBA) policies and communication with stakeholders On equipping teachers well for teaching the NSS subjects teachers in general had attended at least one related workshop or seminar with their main concerns on updating their teaching and

assessment methodologies and subject knowledge and teachers had been quite active in sharing among themselves their teaching experiences during panel meetings or sharing sessions

middle managers had received some specific training in the area of curriculum leadership with the foci on effective lesson observation and catering for learnersrsquo differences and they became more enlightened and confident as NSS curriculum leaders

teachers had attended a 3-hour school-based workshop on helping students in their JUPAS application and were well informed about the procedures involved

On equipping students well for HKDSE most subject panels had completed the syllabus by November 2011 and teachers had sufficient time for final revision with students supplementary lessons for S5 students were arranged during the summer holidays and the Uniform Test was held at the beginning of

September to help S6 students to have a thorough revision on what they had learnt in S4 and S5 after-school tutorial classes were arranged for students of different abilities Participants found the lessons very useful and appreciated

the efforts made by the tutors students were given their expected level attained in each subject which was predicted by teachers with reference to the HKCEE and

HKALE results of the school of the last three years as well as the studentsrsquo performance the Practice Papers set by HKEAA were given to students after the Mock Examination for their revision joint-school oral practice was arranged to provide more authentic practice for students On refining the OLE curriculum the overall plan for OLE was carefully designed and consolidated and the specific action plans for individual domains in aesthetic and

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

Our school provided lots of opportunities for our students to serve the community in this way Through different organizations like Community Youth Club Girls Guides Junior Police Call Oxfam Club Red Cross Youth Unit and Zonta Z Club students could organize and take part in various activities to serve the community Flag selling charity sale blood donation day health project elderly centre visits were arranged for and by our students

2 Achievements and Reflection on Major Areas of Concern 21 Enhancing the Effectiveness of Learning and Teaching

211 Achievements Stepping into the final year in realizing the five foci at enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching set in the School Development Plan (2009ndash2012) namely enhancing teachersrsquo professional development arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning fostering studentsrsquo reading habits and catering for learner differences the school had been striving hard for the following accomplishments On enhancing teachersrsquo professional development on the average teachers had met the requirements of attending at least two seminars or workshops with which they felt satisfactory in

general in helping their professional development especially at enhancing their teaching effectiveness the average CPD hours of teachers had stayed at a fairly satisfactory level of approaching 35 hours in the last academic year teachers were used to engage themselves in formal and informal professional sharing like sharing what new and useful ideas methods

and strategies they had acquired when attending courses or seminars the various kinds of teaching resources which included teaching files teaching aids learning materials question banks and examination

papers for different levels and topics stored in the resources banks in the school intranet by different subjects had been accumulating and useful to teachers in accomplishing their different teaching needs

teachers had been making use of different kinds of lesson observation like peer lesson observation including those across the curriculum but within the same KLA as well as lesson observation for collaborative teaching to foster professional sharing

some interflow programmes were conducted to cater for the growth of teachersrsquo professionalism including the one with CCC Kei Long College for the Science and Mathematics teachers and the other one with the undergrads who were also teachers-to-be of Dongguk University of South Korea during which teachers could be inspired to reach new professional horizons on seeing the good education practices in different places in HK and in the world

some school visits were paid to Hong Kong International School and Canadian International School for the English and Information Technology teachers to learn from them the teaching experience in conducting e-learning and mobile learning

some staff mentoring programmes were held for new teaches (teachers with less than two years of teaching experience in this school) like sharing with them the ways to handle studentsrsquo behavioral problems in class and their lateness in submitting homework assignments

On arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation teachers had kept on improving their teaching strategies like

to include elements of enhancing more active student involvement and autonomy in classroom learning provoking high-order thinking and giving formative feedback in their lessons and especially in their collaborative teaching plans

to make use of the eLearning Pilot Scheme to design lesson materials with the application of iPads to enhance creative and interactive learning in especially S1 English lessons and many Computer or Information amp Communication Technology lessons

to apply the use of the electronic whiteboard and the Simultaneous Response System to foster interactive classroom learning in some Mathematics Computer Science Religious Education and Liberal Education lessons

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 11 -

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

23 Implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum 231 Achievements

With detailed planning and concerted efforts we have successfully implemented the first three-year cycle of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum We provide students with a diversified and balanced curriculum that would widen their horizons for whole person development Indeed studentsrsquo promising results in HKDSE bear witness to our tremendous effort in our planning and implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum The smooth and successful implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum was made with the foci on equipping the teachers and students for more effective teaching and learning refining the Other Learning Experiences (OLE) curriculum preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways establishing the Student Learning Profile (SLP) system devising the School-based Assessment (SBA) policies and communication with stakeholders On equipping teachers well for teaching the NSS subjects teachers in general had attended at least one related workshop or seminar with their main concerns on updating their teaching and

assessment methodologies and subject knowledge and teachers had been quite active in sharing among themselves their teaching experiences during panel meetings or sharing sessions

middle managers had received some specific training in the area of curriculum leadership with the foci on effective lesson observation and catering for learnersrsquo differences and they became more enlightened and confident as NSS curriculum leaders

teachers had attended a 3-hour school-based workshop on helping students in their JUPAS application and were well informed about the procedures involved

On equipping students well for HKDSE most subject panels had completed the syllabus by November 2011 and teachers had sufficient time for final revision with students supplementary lessons for S5 students were arranged during the summer holidays and the Uniform Test was held at the beginning of

September to help S6 students to have a thorough revision on what they had learnt in S4 and S5 after-school tutorial classes were arranged for students of different abilities Participants found the lessons very useful and appreciated

the efforts made by the tutors students were given their expected level attained in each subject which was predicted by teachers with reference to the HKCEE and

HKALE results of the school of the last three years as well as the studentsrsquo performance the Practice Papers set by HKEAA were given to students after the Mock Examination for their revision joint-school oral practice was arranged to provide more authentic practice for students On refining the OLE curriculum the overall plan for OLE was carefully designed and consolidated and the specific action plans for individual domains in aesthetic and

physical development moral and civic education community service and career-related experience had also been worked out by the teachers-in-charge and well consolidated

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

offered by institutions visits to tertiary institutions and career expo taster programmes as well as talks on institution programme introduction and admission

policy had been organized for students to help them to get a clear picture about their future studies On establishing a complete SLP record all S6 students had uploaded their data and information for their SLP records language sessions had been arranged to help students to write their portfolios and in particular to guide S6 students in writing their

self-reflection and completing the OEA form in JUPAS application each S6 student was given her SLP record in electronic form for her JUPAS application and future reference On implementing SBA of each subject subject panels with SBA in 2012 HKDSE had all drafted their SBA implementation plans with good details and carried out their plans

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

2 Achievements and Reflection on Major Areas of Concern 21 Enhancing the Effectiveness of Learning and Teaching

211 Achievements Stepping into the final year in realizing the five foci at enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching set in the School Development Plan (2009ndash2012) namely enhancing teachersrsquo professional development arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning fostering studentsrsquo reading habits and catering for learner differences the school had been striving hard for the following accomplishments On enhancing teachersrsquo professional development on the average teachers had met the requirements of attending at least two seminars or workshops with which they felt satisfactory in

general in helping their professional development especially at enhancing their teaching effectiveness the average CPD hours of teachers had stayed at a fairly satisfactory level of approaching 35 hours in the last academic year teachers were used to engage themselves in formal and informal professional sharing like sharing what new and useful ideas methods

and strategies they had acquired when attending courses or seminars the various kinds of teaching resources which included teaching files teaching aids learning materials question banks and examination

papers for different levels and topics stored in the resources banks in the school intranet by different subjects had been accumulating and useful to teachers in accomplishing their different teaching needs

teachers had been making use of different kinds of lesson observation like peer lesson observation including those across the curriculum but within the same KLA as well as lesson observation for collaborative teaching to foster professional sharing

some interflow programmes were conducted to cater for the growth of teachersrsquo professionalism including the one with CCC Kei Long College for the Science and Mathematics teachers and the other one with the undergrads who were also teachers-to-be of Dongguk University of South Korea during which teachers could be inspired to reach new professional horizons on seeing the good education practices in different places in HK and in the world

some school visits were paid to Hong Kong International School and Canadian International School for the English and Information Technology teachers to learn from them the teaching experience in conducting e-learning and mobile learning

some staff mentoring programmes were held for new teaches (teachers with less than two years of teaching experience in this school) like sharing with them the ways to handle studentsrsquo behavioral problems in class and their lateness in submitting homework assignments

On arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation teachers had kept on improving their teaching strategies like

to include elements of enhancing more active student involvement and autonomy in classroom learning provoking high-order thinking and giving formative feedback in their lessons and especially in their collaborative teaching plans

to make use of the eLearning Pilot Scheme to design lesson materials with the application of iPads to enhance creative and interactive learning in especially S1 English lessons and many Computer or Information amp Communication Technology lessons

to apply the use of the electronic whiteboard and the Simultaneous Response System to foster interactive classroom learning in some Mathematics Computer Science Religious Education and Liberal Education lessons

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 13 -

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

23 Implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum 231 Achievements

With detailed planning and concerted efforts we have successfully implemented the first three-year cycle of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum We provide students with a diversified and balanced curriculum that would widen their horizons for whole person development Indeed studentsrsquo promising results in HKDSE bear witness to our tremendous effort in our planning and implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum The smooth and successful implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum was made with the foci on equipping the teachers and students for more effective teaching and learning refining the Other Learning Experiences (OLE) curriculum preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways establishing the Student Learning Profile (SLP) system devising the School-based Assessment (SBA) policies and communication with stakeholders On equipping teachers well for teaching the NSS subjects teachers in general had attended at least one related workshop or seminar with their main concerns on updating their teaching and

assessment methodologies and subject knowledge and teachers had been quite active in sharing among themselves their teaching experiences during panel meetings or sharing sessions

middle managers had received some specific training in the area of curriculum leadership with the foci on effective lesson observation and catering for learnersrsquo differences and they became more enlightened and confident as NSS curriculum leaders

teachers had attended a 3-hour school-based workshop on helping students in their JUPAS application and were well informed about the procedures involved

On equipping students well for HKDSE most subject panels had completed the syllabus by November 2011 and teachers had sufficient time for final revision with students supplementary lessons for S5 students were arranged during the summer holidays and the Uniform Test was held at the beginning of

September to help S6 students to have a thorough revision on what they had learnt in S4 and S5 after-school tutorial classes were arranged for students of different abilities Participants found the lessons very useful and appreciated

the efforts made by the tutors students were given their expected level attained in each subject which was predicted by teachers with reference to the HKCEE and

HKALE results of the school of the last three years as well as the studentsrsquo performance the Practice Papers set by HKEAA were given to students after the Mock Examination for their revision joint-school oral practice was arranged to provide more authentic practice for students On refining the OLE curriculum the overall plan for OLE was carefully designed and consolidated and the specific action plans for individual domains in aesthetic and

physical development moral and civic education community service and career-related experience had also been worked out by the teachers-in-charge and well consolidated

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

offered by institutions visits to tertiary institutions and career expo taster programmes as well as talks on institution programme introduction and admission

policy had been organized for students to help them to get a clear picture about their future studies On establishing a complete SLP record all S6 students had uploaded their data and information for their SLP records language sessions had been arranged to help students to write their portfolios and in particular to guide S6 students in writing their

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 21 -

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

papers for different levels and topics stored in the resources banks in the school intranet by different subjects had been accumulating and useful to teachers in accomplishing their different teaching needs

teachers had been making use of different kinds of lesson observation like peer lesson observation including those across the curriculum but within the same KLA as well as lesson observation for collaborative teaching to foster professional sharing

some interflow programmes were conducted to cater for the growth of teachersrsquo professionalism including the one with CCC Kei Long College for the Science and Mathematics teachers and the other one with the undergrads who were also teachers-to-be of Dongguk University of South Korea during which teachers could be inspired to reach new professional horizons on seeing the good education practices in different places in HK and in the world

some school visits were paid to Hong Kong International School and Canadian International School for the English and Information Technology teachers to learn from them the teaching experience in conducting e-learning and mobile learning

some staff mentoring programmes were held for new teaches (teachers with less than two years of teaching experience in this school) like sharing with them the ways to handle studentsrsquo behavioral problems in class and their lateness in submitting homework assignments

On arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation teachers had kept on improving their teaching strategies like

to include elements of enhancing more active student involvement and autonomy in classroom learning provoking high-order thinking and giving formative feedback in their lessons and especially in their collaborative teaching plans

to make use of the eLearning Pilot Scheme to design lesson materials with the application of iPads to enhance creative and interactive learning in especially S1 English lessons and many Computer or Information amp Communication Technology lessons

to apply the use of the electronic whiteboard and the Simultaneous Response System to foster interactive classroom learning in some Mathematics Computer Science Religious Education and Liberal Education lessons

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

23 Implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum 231 Achievements

With detailed planning and concerted efforts we have successfully implemented the first three-year cycle of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum We provide students with a diversified and balanced curriculum that would widen their horizons for whole person development Indeed studentsrsquo promising results in HKDSE bear witness to our tremendous effort in our planning and implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum The smooth and successful implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum was made with the foci on equipping the teachers and students for more effective teaching and learning refining the Other Learning Experiences (OLE) curriculum preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways establishing the Student Learning Profile (SLP) system devising the School-based Assessment (SBA) policies and communication with stakeholders On equipping teachers well for teaching the NSS subjects teachers in general had attended at least one related workshop or seminar with their main concerns on updating their teaching and

assessment methodologies and subject knowledge and teachers had been quite active in sharing among themselves their teaching experiences during panel meetings or sharing sessions

middle managers had received some specific training in the area of curriculum leadership with the foci on effective lesson observation and catering for learnersrsquo differences and they became more enlightened and confident as NSS curriculum leaders

teachers had attended a 3-hour school-based workshop on helping students in their JUPAS application and were well informed about the procedures involved

On equipping students well for HKDSE most subject panels had completed the syllabus by November 2011 and teachers had sufficient time for final revision with students supplementary lessons for S5 students were arranged during the summer holidays and the Uniform Test was held at the beginning of

September to help S6 students to have a thorough revision on what they had learnt in S4 and S5 after-school tutorial classes were arranged for students of different abilities Participants found the lessons very useful and appreciated

the efforts made by the tutors students were given their expected level attained in each subject which was predicted by teachers with reference to the HKCEE and

HKALE results of the school of the last three years as well as the studentsrsquo performance the Practice Papers set by HKEAA were given to students after the Mock Examination for their revision joint-school oral practice was arranged to provide more authentic practice for students On refining the OLE curriculum the overall plan for OLE was carefully designed and consolidated and the specific action plans for individual domains in aesthetic and

physical development moral and civic education community service and career-related experience had also been worked out by the teachers-in-charge and well consolidated

different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the OLE arrangements through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings

two OLE Days were successfully arranged to provide students with OLE activities in different domains Students participated actively in the activities and enjoyed the atmosphere of the OLE Days

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

offered by institutions visits to tertiary institutions and career expo taster programmes as well as talks on institution programme introduction and admission

policy had been organized for students to help them to get a clear picture about their future studies On establishing a complete SLP record all S6 students had uploaded their data and information for their SLP records language sessions had been arranged to help students to write their portfolios and in particular to guide S6 students in writing their

self-reflection and completing the OEA form in JUPAS application each S6 student was given her SLP record in electronic form for her JUPAS application and future reference On implementing SBA of each subject subject panels with SBA in 2012 HKDSE had all drafted their SBA implementation plans with good details and carried out their plans

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 21 -

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

2 Achievements and Reflection on Major Areas of Concern 21 Enhancing the Effectiveness of Learning and Teaching

211 Achievements Stepping into the final year in realizing the five foci at enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching set in the School Development Plan (2009ndash2012) namely enhancing teachersrsquo professional development arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning fostering studentsrsquo reading habits and catering for learner differences the school had been striving hard for the following accomplishments On enhancing teachersrsquo professional development on the average teachers had met the requirements of attending at least two seminars or workshops with which they felt satisfactory in

general in helping their professional development especially at enhancing their teaching effectiveness the average CPD hours of teachers had stayed at a fairly satisfactory level of approaching 35 hours in the last academic year teachers were used to engage themselves in formal and informal professional sharing like sharing what new and useful ideas methods

and strategies they had acquired when attending courses or seminars the various kinds of teaching resources which included teaching files teaching aids learning materials question banks and examination

papers for different levels and topics stored in the resources banks in the school intranet by different subjects had been accumulating and useful to teachers in accomplishing their different teaching needs

teachers had been making use of different kinds of lesson observation like peer lesson observation including those across the curriculum but within the same KLA as well as lesson observation for collaborative teaching to foster professional sharing

some interflow programmes were conducted to cater for the growth of teachersrsquo professionalism including the one with CCC Kei Long College for the Science and Mathematics teachers and the other one with the undergrads who were also teachers-to-be of Dongguk University of South Korea during which teachers could be inspired to reach new professional horizons on seeing the good education practices in different places in HK and in the world

some school visits were paid to Hong Kong International School and Canadian International School for the English and Information Technology teachers to learn from them the teaching experience in conducting e-learning and mobile learning

some staff mentoring programmes were held for new teaches (teachers with less than two years of teaching experience in this school) like sharing with them the ways to handle studentsrsquo behavioral problems in class and their lateness in submitting homework assignments

On arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation teachers had kept on improving their teaching strategies like

to include elements of enhancing more active student involvement and autonomy in classroom learning provoking high-order thinking and giving formative feedback in their lessons and especially in their collaborative teaching plans

to make use of the eLearning Pilot Scheme to design lesson materials with the application of iPads to enhance creative and interactive learning in especially S1 English lessons and many Computer or Information amp Communication Technology lessons

to apply the use of the electronic whiteboard and the Simultaneous Response System to foster interactive classroom learning in some Mathematics Computer Science Religious Education and Liberal Education lessons

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 11 -

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

23 Implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum 231 Achievements

With detailed planning and concerted efforts we have successfully implemented the first three-year cycle of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum We provide students with a diversified and balanced curriculum that would widen their horizons for whole person development Indeed studentsrsquo promising results in HKDSE bear witness to our tremendous effort in our planning and implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum The smooth and successful implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum was made with the foci on equipping the teachers and students for more effective teaching and learning refining the Other Learning Experiences (OLE) curriculum preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways establishing the Student Learning Profile (SLP) system devising the School-based Assessment (SBA) policies and communication with stakeholders On equipping teachers well for teaching the NSS subjects teachers in general had attended at least one related workshop or seminar with their main concerns on updating their teaching and

assessment methodologies and subject knowledge and teachers had been quite active in sharing among themselves their teaching experiences during panel meetings or sharing sessions

middle managers had received some specific training in the area of curriculum leadership with the foci on effective lesson observation and catering for learnersrsquo differences and they became more enlightened and confident as NSS curriculum leaders

teachers had attended a 3-hour school-based workshop on helping students in their JUPAS application and were well informed about the procedures involved

On equipping students well for HKDSE most subject panels had completed the syllabus by November 2011 and teachers had sufficient time for final revision with students supplementary lessons for S5 students were arranged during the summer holidays and the Uniform Test was held at the beginning of

September to help S6 students to have a thorough revision on what they had learnt in S4 and S5 after-school tutorial classes were arranged for students of different abilities Participants found the lessons very useful and appreciated

the efforts made by the tutors students were given their expected level attained in each subject which was predicted by teachers with reference to the HKCEE and

HKALE results of the school of the last three years as well as the studentsrsquo performance the Practice Papers set by HKEAA were given to students after the Mock Examination for their revision joint-school oral practice was arranged to provide more authentic practice for students On refining the OLE curriculum the overall plan for OLE was carefully designed and consolidated and the specific action plans for individual domains in aesthetic and

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

offered by institutions visits to tertiary institutions and career expo taster programmes as well as talks on institution programme introduction and admission

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

2 Achievements and Reflection on Major Areas of Concern 21 Enhancing the Effectiveness of Learning and Teaching

211 Achievements Stepping into the final year in realizing the five foci at enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching set in the School Development Plan (2009ndash2012) namely enhancing teachersrsquo professional development arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning fostering studentsrsquo reading habits and catering for learner differences the school had been striving hard for the following accomplishments On enhancing teachersrsquo professional development on the average teachers had met the requirements of attending at least two seminars or workshops with which they felt satisfactory in

general in helping their professional development especially at enhancing their teaching effectiveness the average CPD hours of teachers had stayed at a fairly satisfactory level of approaching 35 hours in the last academic year teachers were used to engage themselves in formal and informal professional sharing like sharing what new and useful ideas methods

and strategies they had acquired when attending courses or seminars the various kinds of teaching resources which included teaching files teaching aids learning materials question banks and examination

papers for different levels and topics stored in the resources banks in the school intranet by different subjects had been accumulating and useful to teachers in accomplishing their different teaching needs

teachers had been making use of different kinds of lesson observation like peer lesson observation including those across the curriculum but within the same KLA as well as lesson observation for collaborative teaching to foster professional sharing

some interflow programmes were conducted to cater for the growth of teachersrsquo professionalism including the one with CCC Kei Long College for the Science and Mathematics teachers and the other one with the undergrads who were also teachers-to-be of Dongguk University of South Korea during which teachers could be inspired to reach new professional horizons on seeing the good education practices in different places in HK and in the world

some school visits were paid to Hong Kong International School and Canadian International School for the English and Information Technology teachers to learn from them the teaching experience in conducting e-learning and mobile learning

some staff mentoring programmes were held for new teaches (teachers with less than two years of teaching experience in this school) like sharing with them the ways to handle studentsrsquo behavioral problems in class and their lateness in submitting homework assignments

On arousing studentsrsquo learning motivation teachers had kept on improving their teaching strategies like

to include elements of enhancing more active student involvement and autonomy in classroom learning provoking high-order thinking and giving formative feedback in their lessons and especially in their collaborative teaching plans

to make use of the eLearning Pilot Scheme to design lesson materials with the application of iPads to enhance creative and interactive learning in especially S1 English lessons and many Computer or Information amp Communication Technology lessons

to apply the use of the electronic whiteboard and the Simultaneous Response System to foster interactive classroom learning in some Mathematics Computer Science Religious Education and Liberal Education lessons

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 11 -

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

Service Learning combined volunteer activities with the intent that the activities could change both the recipients and the providers of the service This was accomplished by combining service tasks with structured opportunities that linked the task to self-reflection self-discovery and the acquisition and comprehension of values skills and knowledge The best learning experience would not be gained by passive participation in school activities but was acquired in situations shaped and initiated by the students

Our school provided lots of opportunities for our students to serve the community in this way Through different organizations like Community Youth Club Girls Guides Junior Police Call Oxfam Club Red Cross Youth Unit and Zonta Z Club students could organize and take part in various activities to serve the community Flag selling charity sale blood donation day health project elderly centre visits were arranged for and by our students

6 The Way Forward

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

studentsrsquo autonomy and initiative in learning was much facilitated through e-learning like to make use of the e-class platform where various kinds of learning materials including handouts power point slides video clips

self-learning remedial and revision exercises mock papers answer keys or guidelines and useful web links were uploaded by different subjects for different levels (some teachers even used the e-class platform uploading and downloading assignments)

to use some web 20 platforms in Visual Arts such as voicethread and sitepal to help students learn art appreciation and design studentsrsquo good work was duly recognized as encouragement and model examples for students to follow and

their pieces of good work were often shown to classmates via visualizers or handouts displayed in classrooms display boards or subject rooms and constantly uploaded to e-Class the subject homepages or the school homepage

excellent Science studentsrsquo learning outcomes good works and achievements were shared with schoolmates in the Science Exhibition held in the post-examination period

studentsrsquo academic achievements were acknowledged on the Parentsrsquo Day held after the Mid-year Examination with the presentation of certificates to the First in Class in junior forms by the Principal the displaying on boards their academic achievements and the exhibition of their good works

the Board of Fame outside the school office was frequently exhibited with updated news and reports of remarkable studentsrsquo achievements which would appear also in the School Newsletter

On promoting cross-curricular teaching and learning teachers of different subjects worked together successfully for cross-curricular thematic learning and teaching on the Cross-curricular

Learning Day held on March 2 2012 during which students participated proactively and creatively in various tailor-made cross-curricular learning activities based on different themes for different levels of students

the school language policy was drafted and practiced to facilitate studentsrsquo learning of English across curricula as well as in their other learning experiences while the consolidation of an English-rich school environment like the use of English in announcements notices circulars and daily encounters in school helped students to be more confident and at ease in using English in learning different subjects

cross-subjects collaboration between English and Humanities and Science subjects to develop interactive cross-curricular worksheets activities and games to be used in lessons to enhance studentsrsquo learning of English and those EMI subjects was planned for implementation in this school year

On fostering studentsrsquo reading habits under the Reading Scheme students had to write book reports on Chinese and English books which they had read and their book

reports were shared through presentation during the reading periods and the better ones were selected and posted up in the display boards in classrooms and the school canteen while their better English book reports were also displayed outside the MMLC and at the English Corner in the school library

teachersrsquo sharing of their reading experience and recommendation of good books were conducted in the reading periods and the written ones were posted up in display boards of the language subject panels and in the school library

suggested reading booklists for students were persistently prepared by each KLA for each level and uploaded to either the subject web pages or the school library website

the practice of designing assignments which required students to acquire diffused information from prescribed readings of reference books newspapers andor websites were adopted widely by many subject panels like BAFS Biology Chinese History History ICT Integrated Science Visual Arts etc

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

23 Implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum 231 Achievements

With detailed planning and concerted efforts we have successfully implemented the first three-year cycle of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum We provide students with a diversified and balanced curriculum that would widen their horizons for whole person development Indeed studentsrsquo promising results in HKDSE bear witness to our tremendous effort in our planning and implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum The smooth and successful implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum was made with the foci on equipping the teachers and students for more effective teaching and learning refining the Other Learning Experiences (OLE) curriculum preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways establishing the Student Learning Profile (SLP) system devising the School-based Assessment (SBA) policies and communication with stakeholders On equipping teachers well for teaching the NSS subjects teachers in general had attended at least one related workshop or seminar with their main concerns on updating their teaching and

assessment methodologies and subject knowledge and teachers had been quite active in sharing among themselves their teaching experiences during panel meetings or sharing sessions

middle managers had received some specific training in the area of curriculum leadership with the foci on effective lesson observation and catering for learnersrsquo differences and they became more enlightened and confident as NSS curriculum leaders

teachers had attended a 3-hour school-based workshop on helping students in their JUPAS application and were well informed about the procedures involved

On equipping students well for HKDSE most subject panels had completed the syllabus by November 2011 and teachers had sufficient time for final revision with students supplementary lessons for S5 students were arranged during the summer holidays and the Uniform Test was held at the beginning of

September to help S6 students to have a thorough revision on what they had learnt in S4 and S5 after-school tutorial classes were arranged for students of different abilities Participants found the lessons very useful and appreciated

the efforts made by the tutors students were given their expected level attained in each subject which was predicted by teachers with reference to the HKCEE and

HKALE results of the school of the last three years as well as the studentsrsquo performance the Practice Papers set by HKEAA were given to students after the Mock Examination for their revision joint-school oral practice was arranged to provide more authentic practice for students On refining the OLE curriculum the overall plan for OLE was carefully designed and consolidated and the specific action plans for individual domains in aesthetic and

physical development moral and civic education community service and career-related experience had also been worked out by the teachers-in-charge and well consolidated

different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the OLE arrangements through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings

two OLE Days were successfully arranged to provide students with OLE activities in different domains Students participated actively in the activities and enjoyed the atmosphere of the OLE Days

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

offered by institutions visits to tertiary institutions and career expo taster programmes as well as talks on institution programme introduction and admission

policy had been organized for students to help them to get a clear picture about their future studies On establishing a complete SLP record all S6 students had uploaded their data and information for their SLP records language sessions had been arranged to help students to write their portfolios and in particular to guide S6 students in writing their

self-reflection and completing the OEA form in JUPAS application each S6 student was given her SLP record in electronic form for her JUPAS application and future reference On implementing SBA of each subject subject panels with SBA in 2012 HKDSE had all drafted their SBA implementation plans with good details and carried out their plans

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 21 -

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

6 The Way Forward

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

On catering for learnersrsquo differences under the school-based support programme to cater for learning diversities provided by the EDB School-based Support Services a

whole-day staff development programme was implemented to better equip all teachers with the concepts approach and strategies to deal with studentsrsquo learning diversities a working group formed with a vice principal the assisting panel heads of the Chinese English and Mathematics subject panels and the S2 Chinese English and Mathematics subject teachers had been conducting very intensive and useful reviews on the S2 students and the teaching and learning of those three main subjects to work out practical ways to cater for the different learning needs while many teachers were frequently recruited to attend workshops seminars or lesson observation arranged by the EDB network on catering for learning diversities

off-site courses in Chinese English Mathematics Liberal Studies and Biology had been held for NSS high-achieving students and their learning abilities in these subjects were further enhanced

more challenging tasks and learning activities during the lessons and more demanding homework assignments had been designed and provided for high ability students by teachers of different subjects and it was a common practice in class for teachers to make use of graded questions and differentiated tasks to better match studentsrsquo abilities

after-school tutorial classes were arranged for NSS students studying different elective subjects to better equip them with the subject knowledge and studying skills as well as for those junior form students who were weak in the main subjects

members of the Academic Standing Committee had been assigned to take up leadership role in looking after the development of different key aspects of learning and teaching including gifted education and proposals were drafted to start working out the mechanism for the identification of gifted students and the more comprehensive policies in nurturing students of different kinds of gifts

212 Reflection

Teachers in the past few years had been enthusiastic but quite exhausting at attending various professional development courses

seminars or workshops especially those refresher training courses for teaching the NSS curriculum It had been quite tiring for them and it appeared that their average CPD hours had dropped slightly in the previous school year For future teacher professional development it is quality rather than quantity that counts and the focus should be better placed at the immediate needs of the school the students and the teachers themselves like strategies for catering for learning diversities cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning and even career education There should still be more interflows with other schools including school visits to enable teachers to learn from the strengths and practical examples of other schools with invaluable experience and typical success in the fields concerned

Collaborative teaching benefits both the teachers and students and the practice can be directed into developing the much needed teaching strategies of cooperative learning e-learning mobile learning and catering for learning diversities

To develop e-learning in order to enable studentsrsquo independent self-learning besides the necessary provision of both the hardware and software teachers should still be given more room and support to allow them to prepare more lessons and teaching packages for e-learning

Besides adopting suitable teaching strategies effectively carrying out the Homework Submission Policy providing students with challenging but tailor-made tasks or assignments and showing recognition to studentsrsquo good work and achievements students could still be better and further motivated to learn by leading them to greater exposures and awarding them with timely and suitable prizes Besides the year-end presentation of the Academic and Subject Awards to the outstanding students prizes for which every average student could compete like Homework Submission Awards could also be considered It may also be worthy to publish studentsrsquo masterpieces extracted from their assignments or homework so that they can be further encouraged to learn if they know their good performance could be recognized by parents and the wider public

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

23 Implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum 231 Achievements

With detailed planning and concerted efforts we have successfully implemented the first three-year cycle of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum We provide students with a diversified and balanced curriculum that would widen their horizons for whole person development Indeed studentsrsquo promising results in HKDSE bear witness to our tremendous effort in our planning and implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum The smooth and successful implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum was made with the foci on equipping the teachers and students for more effective teaching and learning refining the Other Learning Experiences (OLE) curriculum preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways establishing the Student Learning Profile (SLP) system devising the School-based Assessment (SBA) policies and communication with stakeholders On equipping teachers well for teaching the NSS subjects teachers in general had attended at least one related workshop or seminar with their main concerns on updating their teaching and

assessment methodologies and subject knowledge and teachers had been quite active in sharing among themselves their teaching experiences during panel meetings or sharing sessions

middle managers had received some specific training in the area of curriculum leadership with the foci on effective lesson observation and catering for learnersrsquo differences and they became more enlightened and confident as NSS curriculum leaders

teachers had attended a 3-hour school-based workshop on helping students in their JUPAS application and were well informed about the procedures involved

On equipping students well for HKDSE most subject panels had completed the syllabus by November 2011 and teachers had sufficient time for final revision with students supplementary lessons for S5 students were arranged during the summer holidays and the Uniform Test was held at the beginning of

September to help S6 students to have a thorough revision on what they had learnt in S4 and S5 after-school tutorial classes were arranged for students of different abilities Participants found the lessons very useful and appreciated

the efforts made by the tutors students were given their expected level attained in each subject which was predicted by teachers with reference to the HKCEE and

HKALE results of the school of the last three years as well as the studentsrsquo performance the Practice Papers set by HKEAA were given to students after the Mock Examination for their revision joint-school oral practice was arranged to provide more authentic practice for students On refining the OLE curriculum the overall plan for OLE was carefully designed and consolidated and the specific action plans for individual domains in aesthetic and

physical development moral and civic education community service and career-related experience had also been worked out by the teachers-in-charge and well consolidated

different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the OLE arrangements through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings

two OLE Days were successfully arranged to provide students with OLE activities in different domains Students participated actively in the activities and enjoyed the atmosphere of the OLE Days

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

offered by institutions visits to tertiary institutions and career expo taster programmes as well as talks on institution programme introduction and admission

policy had been organized for students to help them to get a clear picture about their future studies On establishing a complete SLP record all S6 students had uploaded their data and information for their SLP records language sessions had been arranged to help students to write their portfolios and in particular to guide S6 students in writing their

self-reflection and completing the OEA form in JUPAS application each S6 student was given her SLP record in electronic form for her JUPAS application and future reference On implementing SBA of each subject subject panels with SBA in 2012 HKDSE had all drafted their SBA implementation plans with good details and carried out their plans

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 21 -

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

6 The Way Forward

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

Based on the success of the Cross-curricular Learning Day which helped strengthen teachersrsquo belief and confidence in the practice while enriching their experience cross-curricular learning could still be much better enhanced in three ways like to promote cross-curricular learning with tailor-made curricula after the subject panels have reviewed their curricula to identify

suitable topics and subjects for cross-curricular learning to develop lsquolanguage across curriculumrsquo learning and teaching materials promoting further cross-curricular learning with English as

the medium so that both the language and the academic subjects could reinforce one another in studentsrsquo learning to still hold the Cross-curricular Learning Day not just to provide students with task-oriented leaning opportunities but to provide a

whole school day for holding learning activities for either Language Across Curriculum or tailor-made curricula between subjects Studentsrsquo reading habits has been steadily established with the persistent implementation of the Reading Scheme and the various

related measures like the use of reading journals book report displays and the invaluable sharing of reading experience by students and teachers To make reading useful and helpful to studentsrsquo learning and academic pursuit the practice of requiring students to provide diffused information from prescribed readings in accomplishing their assignments should still be strengthened while students should still be encouraged to engage more in quality reading like reading quality books written by quality writers to enrich their knowledge and life Moreover reading for self-direct learning should be promoted and students should be provided with prescribed reading lists including even ibooks to encourage and facilitate their self-direct learning

Studentsrsquo learning diversities can still be much better catered for with more effective strategies and with the greater teachersrsquo awareness of the importance of catering for learner differences as an indispensable and effective way to help all students It is necessary to follow a school-based support programme to equip the school and the teachers with the necessary knowledge and strategies to enhance studentsrsquo learning through catering for learning diversities

22 Cultivation of Personal Growth 221 Achievements

Our school strives to provide students a pleasant and harmonious learning environment filled with respect appreciation love and care

We also work in partnership with parents the neighborhood churches the community and related organizations to foster the moral intellectual physical social aesthetic and spiritual development of our students We nurture our students by developing their potential in self-discipline autonomy self-enhancement independent thinking as well as their creativity and leadership so as to help them develop a positive attitude towards learning and active participation We empower our students to make the best use of Godrsquos given talents in service to others

This year is the 140th Anniversary of True Light We set lsquoI Love True Lightrsquo as the year theme The aims were to let students know more about the History of True Light and to promote the qualities of True Light Girls The student with qualities of True Light Girls was selected by their teachers and fellow students in each level and awarded the True Light Star Award Bookmarks on the qualities of True Light Girls were produced and given to students and visitors True Light Songs singing competition inter-class display board design competition and a series of lsquoI Love True Lightrsquo competitions including photo-taking competition comics competition video production competition drama competition and writing new lyrics for old rhythms competitions were held to promote the year theme and enhance sense of belonging Visits to Alma mater in Guangzhou by alumnae students leaders and parents were organized at the end of April 2012 Two alumnae Ellen Poon Kwok Yu and Winnie Lee Wai Yan were invited to share their contributions to the society in assemblies In addition a talk on Femininity was shared by Rev Ma Wai Yee The Lantern Passing Ceremony was held after the Graduation Ceremony to convey the message that the spirit of True Light would pass on from generations to generations and it would keep on shining forever

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

23 Implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum 231 Achievements

With detailed planning and concerted efforts we have successfully implemented the first three-year cycle of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum We provide students with a diversified and balanced curriculum that would widen their horizons for whole person development Indeed studentsrsquo promising results in HKDSE bear witness to our tremendous effort in our planning and implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum The smooth and successful implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum was made with the foci on equipping the teachers and students for more effective teaching and learning refining the Other Learning Experiences (OLE) curriculum preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways establishing the Student Learning Profile (SLP) system devising the School-based Assessment (SBA) policies and communication with stakeholders On equipping teachers well for teaching the NSS subjects teachers in general had attended at least one related workshop or seminar with their main concerns on updating their teaching and

assessment methodologies and subject knowledge and teachers had been quite active in sharing among themselves their teaching experiences during panel meetings or sharing sessions

middle managers had received some specific training in the area of curriculum leadership with the foci on effective lesson observation and catering for learnersrsquo differences and they became more enlightened and confident as NSS curriculum leaders

teachers had attended a 3-hour school-based workshop on helping students in their JUPAS application and were well informed about the procedures involved

On equipping students well for HKDSE most subject panels had completed the syllabus by November 2011 and teachers had sufficient time for final revision with students supplementary lessons for S5 students were arranged during the summer holidays and the Uniform Test was held at the beginning of

September to help S6 students to have a thorough revision on what they had learnt in S4 and S5 after-school tutorial classes were arranged for students of different abilities Participants found the lessons very useful and appreciated

the efforts made by the tutors students were given their expected level attained in each subject which was predicted by teachers with reference to the HKCEE and

HKALE results of the school of the last three years as well as the studentsrsquo performance the Practice Papers set by HKEAA were given to students after the Mock Examination for their revision joint-school oral practice was arranged to provide more authentic practice for students On refining the OLE curriculum the overall plan for OLE was carefully designed and consolidated and the specific action plans for individual domains in aesthetic and

physical development moral and civic education community service and career-related experience had also been worked out by the teachers-in-charge and well consolidated

different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the OLE arrangements through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings

two OLE Days were successfully arranged to provide students with OLE activities in different domains Students participated actively in the activities and enjoyed the atmosphere of the OLE Days

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 17 -

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

offered by institutions visits to tertiary institutions and career expo taster programmes as well as talks on institution programme introduction and admission

policy had been organized for students to help them to get a clear picture about their future studies On establishing a complete SLP record all S6 students had uploaded their data and information for their SLP records language sessions had been arranged to help students to write their portfolios and in particular to guide S6 students in writing their

self-reflection and completing the OEA form in JUPAS application each S6 student was given her SLP record in electronic form for her JUPAS application and future reference On implementing SBA of each subject subject panels with SBA in 2012 HKDSE had all drafted their SBA implementation plans with good details and carried out their plans

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 21 -

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

Our school provided lots of opportunities for our students to serve the community in this way Through different organizations like Community Youth Club Girls Guides Junior Police Call Oxfam Club Red Cross Youth Unit and Zonta Z Club students could organize and take part in various activities to serve the community Flag selling charity sale blood donation day health project elderly centre visits were arranged for and by our students

6 The Way Forward

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

222 Reflection

To enhance studentsrsquo personal growth the administrative committees concerned could be further encouraged to cooperate and

implement programs related to the cultivation of positive values and proper attitudes of students We need to strengthen studentsrsquo sense of responsibility and their awareness of healthy lifestyle

Though the disciplinary problems were not very serious in our school the attitude and behaviour of some students still need further improvement Besides some students need more guidance on time management and the proper use of internet and some students need to be trained and developed to attain impressive and presentable appearance

To develop and maximize potentials of students a more organized system should be set up to identify studentsrsquo specific needs and address them with the most appropriate services like identifying gifted students and informing them with updated information of appropriate programs in and outside school

23 Implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum 231 Achievements

With detailed planning and concerted efforts we have successfully implemented the first three-year cycle of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum We provide students with a diversified and balanced curriculum that would widen their horizons for whole person development Indeed studentsrsquo promising results in HKDSE bear witness to our tremendous effort in our planning and implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum The smooth and successful implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum was made with the foci on equipping the teachers and students for more effective teaching and learning refining the Other Learning Experiences (OLE) curriculum preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways establishing the Student Learning Profile (SLP) system devising the School-based Assessment (SBA) policies and communication with stakeholders On equipping teachers well for teaching the NSS subjects teachers in general had attended at least one related workshop or seminar with their main concerns on updating their teaching and

assessment methodologies and subject knowledge and teachers had been quite active in sharing among themselves their teaching experiences during panel meetings or sharing sessions

middle managers had received some specific training in the area of curriculum leadership with the foci on effective lesson observation and catering for learnersrsquo differences and they became more enlightened and confident as NSS curriculum leaders

teachers had attended a 3-hour school-based workshop on helping students in their JUPAS application and were well informed about the procedures involved

On equipping students well for HKDSE most subject panels had completed the syllabus by November 2011 and teachers had sufficient time for final revision with students supplementary lessons for S5 students were arranged during the summer holidays and the Uniform Test was held at the beginning of

September to help S6 students to have a thorough revision on what they had learnt in S4 and S5 after-school tutorial classes were arranged for students of different abilities Participants found the lessons very useful and appreciated

the efforts made by the tutors students were given their expected level attained in each subject which was predicted by teachers with reference to the HKCEE and

HKALE results of the school of the last three years as well as the studentsrsquo performance the Practice Papers set by HKEAA were given to students after the Mock Examination for their revision joint-school oral practice was arranged to provide more authentic practice for students On refining the OLE curriculum the overall plan for OLE was carefully designed and consolidated and the specific action plans for individual domains in aesthetic and

physical development moral and civic education community service and career-related experience had also been worked out by the teachers-in-charge and well consolidated

different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the OLE arrangements through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings

two OLE Days were successfully arranged to provide students with OLE activities in different domains Students participated actively in the activities and enjoyed the atmosphere of the OLE Days

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 17 -

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

offered by institutions visits to tertiary institutions and career expo taster programmes as well as talks on institution programme introduction and admission

policy had been organized for students to help them to get a clear picture about their future studies On establishing a complete SLP record all S6 students had uploaded their data and information for their SLP records language sessions had been arranged to help students to write their portfolios and in particular to guide S6 students in writing their

self-reflection and completing the OEA form in JUPAS application each S6 student was given her SLP record in electronic form for her JUPAS application and future reference On implementing SBA of each subject subject panels with SBA in 2012 HKDSE had all drafted their SBA implementation plans with good details and carried out their plans

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 21 -

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

6 The Way Forward

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

23 Implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum 231 Achievements

With detailed planning and concerted efforts we have successfully implemented the first three-year cycle of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum We provide students with a diversified and balanced curriculum that would widen their horizons for whole person development Indeed studentsrsquo promising results in HKDSE bear witness to our tremendous effort in our planning and implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum The smooth and successful implementation of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum was made with the foci on equipping the teachers and students for more effective teaching and learning refining the Other Learning Experiences (OLE) curriculum preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways establishing the Student Learning Profile (SLP) system devising the School-based Assessment (SBA) policies and communication with stakeholders On equipping teachers well for teaching the NSS subjects teachers in general had attended at least one related workshop or seminar with their main concerns on updating their teaching and

assessment methodologies and subject knowledge and teachers had been quite active in sharing among themselves their teaching experiences during panel meetings or sharing sessions

middle managers had received some specific training in the area of curriculum leadership with the foci on effective lesson observation and catering for learnersrsquo differences and they became more enlightened and confident as NSS curriculum leaders

teachers had attended a 3-hour school-based workshop on helping students in their JUPAS application and were well informed about the procedures involved

On equipping students well for HKDSE most subject panels had completed the syllabus by November 2011 and teachers had sufficient time for final revision with students supplementary lessons for S5 students were arranged during the summer holidays and the Uniform Test was held at the beginning of

September to help S6 students to have a thorough revision on what they had learnt in S4 and S5 after-school tutorial classes were arranged for students of different abilities Participants found the lessons very useful and appreciated

the efforts made by the tutors students were given their expected level attained in each subject which was predicted by teachers with reference to the HKCEE and

HKALE results of the school of the last three years as well as the studentsrsquo performance the Practice Papers set by HKEAA were given to students after the Mock Examination for their revision joint-school oral practice was arranged to provide more authentic practice for students On refining the OLE curriculum the overall plan for OLE was carefully designed and consolidated and the specific action plans for individual domains in aesthetic and

physical development moral and civic education community service and career-related experience had also been worked out by the teachers-in-charge and well consolidated

different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the OLE arrangements through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings

two OLE Days were successfully arranged to provide students with OLE activities in different domains Students participated actively in the activities and enjoyed the atmosphere of the OLE Days

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 17 -

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

offered by institutions visits to tertiary institutions and career expo taster programmes as well as talks on institution programme introduction and admission

policy had been organized for students to help them to get a clear picture about their future studies On establishing a complete SLP record all S6 students had uploaded their data and information for their SLP records language sessions had been arranged to help students to write their portfolios and in particular to guide S6 students in writing their

self-reflection and completing the OEA form in JUPAS application each S6 student was given her SLP record in electronic form for her JUPAS application and future reference On implementing SBA of each subject subject panels with SBA in 2012 HKDSE had all drafted their SBA implementation plans with good details and carried out their plans

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 18 -

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 21 -

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

6 The Way Forward

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

On preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways different stakeholders including students parents and teachers were well informed of the JUPAS application procedures and also the

multiple pathways for students through school circulars the school homepage and briefing meetings career mapping activities had been conducted for students to have better self-understanding and understanding about the programmes

offered by institutions visits to tertiary institutions and career expo taster programmes as well as talks on institution programme introduction and admission

policy had been organized for students to help them to get a clear picture about their future studies On establishing a complete SLP record all S6 students had uploaded their data and information for their SLP records language sessions had been arranged to help students to write their portfolios and in particular to guide S6 students in writing their

self-reflection and completing the OEA form in JUPAS application each S6 student was given her SLP record in electronic form for her JUPAS application and future reference On implementing SBA of each subject subject panels with SBA in 2012 HKDSE had all drafted their SBA implementation plans with good details and carried out their plans

smoothly the overall school policy on SBA was decided and students were duly informed of the details through a briefing meeting and the

specially published lsquoSBA Student Handbookrsquo which included useful items like Rationale and Aims for SBA Implementation SBA Implementation Timetable SBA Calendar SBA Administrative Mechanism SBA Quality Assessment Studentsrsquo Responsibilities and Handling of Irregularities

according to the SBA mark modulation report published by HKEEA SBA marks of students in most subjects were within the expected range showing that teachers had mastered quite well the marking principle of SBA in their subjects

232 Reflection

The school had been proceeding smoothly in implementing the NSS Curriculum and based on the reflections of the previously made measures and invaluable practical experiences refinement and further improvement of the schoolrsquos NSSC measures has still to be made As more teachers will have to be involved in teaching the NSSC subjects it will be more necessary to equip them further for the NSS

Curriculum With the present practices as foundation teachers would continue to attend refresher courses whenever they find it appropriate cooperation and mutual support could also be sought from other schools while learning from the good experiences of other schools through school visits or interflows could also be attempted

The subject panels had been quite ready for implementing the NSS curriculum in terms of procuring and preparing teaching and learning materials Further measures would still be necessary in reviewing and refining the teaching plans and strategies for even more effective learning and teaching and better HKDSE results

Students had been provided with the iPortfolio as an electronic platform for maintaining their SLP records More support and reinforcement measures would still be necessary to help students make efficient and sufficient use of this platform

The NSS subject combination for students should still be constantly reviewed whenever needs arise or important changes have taken place For instance there should be a further study on the feasibility and usefulness in introducing other elective subjects andor Applied Learning to students

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

6 The Way Forward

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

The school has taken a significant step in implementing SBA by providing students with the informative SBA Student Handbook Further measures concerning the coordination of SBA learning activities record keeping assessment criteria and handling of irregularities have still to be followed Experience sharing from the HKEAA in handling appeals and irregularities would be helpful and useful

Preparing students for JUPAS application and multiple pathways should be started earlier so as to allow ample time for students to have a thorough understanding about themselves and also their future study options They also need to understand thoroughly the procedures involved in the JUPAS application process Formal career education curriculum in senior secondary levels would be considered in the next academic year

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

6 The Way Forward

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

3 Learning and Teaching

31 Learning Experiences Our students mostly always learn proactively inside and outside the classrooms to strive for the best and to get the most out of their various

learning experiences Through the formal curriculum students learn not just the book knowledge they also learn to strengthen their various generic skills and come

across various elements of value education including moral civic and environmental education through which they acquire important core values develop correct attitude towards life and extend their ability to think independently which is one of our aims in education as stated in the School Vision and which is the most useful to their everyday life and whole person development

When in classrooms students have been facing the recent trend of studying with lesser classmates in the same classroom either because of the

EDB policy of reducing the class size to a standard class of 36 students or because there may be fewer students studying some elective subjects in senior secondary classes Students in general had benefited from this situation as they could be better taken care of by teachers in class It was also easier for teachers to engage students in different kinds of class activities such as group discussions and role plays providing them with more interactive learning experiences Teachers could adopt more suitable teaching strategies to cater for learning diversities They were highly attentive to students and more supportive to their learning

Students also found their learning in classroom very effective as teachers made frequent use of information technology devices and audio-visual

aids to enrich their learning experiences The classroom atmosphere was often lively and interactive which helped engage students in active participation and contribution in the lessons Teachers also always supplemented their lessons with useful handouts and worksheets to reinforce and consolidate studentsrsquo learning

There were small changes in some subject names to provide students with clearer directions and objectives in their learning Ethics lessons were

renamed as Religious Education while Life Education II could assume its proper name as Liberal Studies Bridging elements were included in S1 lessons to help S1 students experience smooth transition from primary to secondary education in S3

lessons to prepare S3 students for their forthcoming new senior secondary education and in S4 lessons to equip S4 students better in their study of the NSS curriculum Taster programmes in the form of supplementary lessons on Business Accounting and Financial Studies and on Mathematics Extended Modules were also planned for S3 students to help them make good decision in their subject selection when promoting to S4

The tendency of NSS students taking less than three elective subjects in their study has been growing strongly probably because studying three

elective subjects would create for the students enormous studying workload while it seems to be already sufficient if students could perform very well in the four core subjects and two elective subjects to get admission into local universities In this school year after their application for dropping elective subjects had been approved after the last Final Examination there are now 36 students in S5 and 99 students in S6 studying less than three elective subjects Moreover the numbers of students who had withdrawn from their study of M1M2 were 12 and 16 in S5 and S6 respectively It is necessary for the school to reconsider its own NSS curriculum to cater better for the needs of the students and to upkeep their quality learning experiences

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 20 -

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 22 -

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

Our school provided lots of opportunities for our students to serve the community in this way Through different organizations like Community Youth Club Girls Guides Junior Police Call Oxfam Club Red Cross Youth Unit and Zonta Z Club students could organize and take part in various activities to serve the community Flag selling charity sale blood donation day health project elderly centre visits were arranged for and by our students

6 The Way Forward

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

In the meantime those S5 and S6 students who had withdrawn their study of an elective subject had to conduct their own self-direct learning in the school library while class and subject teachers were well aware of giving them more and better support through guidance or providing them with more supplementary work or exercises Those students who had withdrawn from studying the Mathematics extension parts could still stay in the classroom during Mathematics lessons to concentrate on their self-direct study of the core part in Mathematics Moreover elements of career education had been introduced to S5 and S6 students as guidance programmes which were conducted during the class teachersrsquo periods or the assembly time

Besides learning the formal curriculum in classrooms students also learned effectively and gained significantly when they participated in the

cross-curricular activities or attended the various enrichment or enhancement courses organized by the school or when they acquired other learning experiences outside the classroom

To help students experience cross-curricular learning the Cross-curricular Learning Day was again organized as a creative way to offer students

some new learning environments and challenging tasks to allow both their imagination and creativity to flourish and to develop their knowledge skills and understanding Students were highly motivated to learn on the Cross-curricular Learning Day as they participated actively in various stimulating thematic learning activities like lsquoThe Changing Face of Centralrsquo for S1 lsquoEat for Nutrition and Perfection for S2 lsquoField Study in Kingrsquos Parkrsquo for S3 lsquoMy Familyrsquo for S4 and lsquoEvolution of Moneyrsquo for S5

The Capacity Enhancement Grant (CEG) and the Diversity Learning (DLG) were well made use of to provide extra support to further enrich

studentsrsquo knowledge better enhance their learning capacity and develop wider their interests and skills Through CEG there were Mathematics enrichment courses to cater for the needs of gifted students in S1 and S2 English drama courses Chinese debating courses Physics courses on lsquoArchitecture amp Mechanicsrsquo and lsquoElectromagnetismrsquo an Astronomy Study course in the Science KLA for junior form students and a Fundamental Photography course to develop studentsrsquo interests in science technology and art Through DLG there included a Learning English through Debating Extension Course workshops on Chinese writing and composition a Biology course on lsquoForensic Sciencersquo and Mathematics and Liberal Studies enhancement courses for NSS students

Studentsrsquo knowledge horizons were also broadened when they participated in a variety of extra-curricular or co-curricular activities like visits

field trips and study tours abroad or to mainland China Different subject panels had also worked through their respective academic societies to provide various innovative life-wide learning activities to arouse studentsrsquo interests and to enhance their ability in learning the disciplines Talks of academics or scholars had also been organized to help arouse studentsrsquo social consciousness and academic concerns

32 Teaching Strategies

Our teachers were very willing to learn and adopt different kinds of teaching strategies to cater for the learning needs of the students They often

acted as facilitators in classrooms to encourage studentsrsquo proactive learning To arouse studentsrsquo learning motivation and construct an interactive classroom teachers would pose graded and high order thinking questions to enhance studentsrsquo creativity and critical thinking skills and would also solicit different scenarios to inspire them to explore alternative methods to solve problems In many cases differentiated and challenging tasks were also designed to create sufficient learning opportunities in classrooms Students were provided with timely and constructive feedbacks and compliments as recognition and reinforcement of studentsrsquo learning outcomes There were frequent applications of such information technology techniques and devices as the computing systems and visualizers and occasionally the use of electronic whiteboards with the simultaneous response system to create a more interactive and effective learning environment and to make learning and teaching doubly effective

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

- 21 -

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

True Light Girlsrsquo College School Report (SR) 2011-2012

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

424 Community Service

Service Learning combined volunteer activities with the intent that the activities could change both the recipients and the providers of the service This was accomplished by combining service tasks with structured opportunities that linked the task to self-reflection self-discovery and the acquisition and comprehension of values skills and knowledge The best learning experience would not be gained by passive participation in school activities but was acquired in situations shaped and initiated by the students

Our school provided lots of opportunities for our students to serve the community in this way Through different organizations like Community Youth Club Girls Guides Junior Police Call Oxfam Club Red Cross Youth Unit and Zonta Z Club students could organize and take part in various activities to serve the community Flag selling charity sale blood donation day health project elderly centre visits were arranged for and by our students

6 The Way Forward

Last year is another fruitful and meaningful year to True Light Girlsrsquo College thanking for the continued support from the Incorporated Management Committee all the teachers parents and students With the concerted effort of all True Light members we have successfully implemented our plan for the New Senior Secondary Curriculum and provided plenty of elective subjects for students to choose to study and lots of other learning experiences for them to enrich their school life and grow in various dimensions The promising HKDSE and JUPAS results bear witness to the tremendous effort made by the school in the planning and implementation of the NSSC Besides we have proudly celebrated True Light 140th Anniversary together with all our supporters seeing the passing of the light from our school founder Ms Harriet Nowell Noyes through generations to all current True Light students Based on our strengths and with reference to our evaluation on our previous school plans as well as the results of our stakeholdersrsquo survey we will sharpen our focus in the following key areas in the coming school year (1) Cultivating the True Light spirit and culture through our 40th Anniversary celebrations and the ldquoI Love True Lightrdquo Campaign (2) Enhancing the effectiveness of learning and teaching with focus on self-directed learning (3) Establishing school-based gifted education mechanism aiming at developing students to their fullest potential and (4) Implementing school-based Career Education curriculum in senior secondary levels to prepare students for their multiple pathways Amidst all the changes in the education system in recent years True Light will hold on to our mission of being the Light of the World and continue to provide quality Christian education and work to the best of our ability to equip our students with the right attitude to learning an inquisitive mind positive values and a will to serve and shine in the world

To refine and further develop their teaching strategies teachers actively made use of the Collaborative Teaching Scheme and the Common Free

Periods to work together and to learn from each other for the purpose Through the Collaborative Scheme teachers teaching the same subjects or within the same KLA worked in teams each consisting of two or

three teachers and worked out together some teaching plans For this year special attention would be paid to include cooperative learning elements with the scheming of student-oriented lessons to enhance active student involvement and learning autonomy while there would still be concerns for provoking high-order thinking and catering for learning diversities Teachers would complete a cycle of collaborative lesson preparation and mutual lesson observation in either the first or second term The school has been keeping these collaborative teaching plans which become a stock of invaluable teaching strategies and experiences for teachersrsquo easy reference and professional sharing

Common free periods were arranged for teachers of English Chinese Mathematics and NSS Liberal Studies at each level to enhance their

professional teaching collaboration in their lesson preparation and implementation Other subject teachers had mostly had the initiative to arrange for themselves the same practice for their professional development and sharing

To further enhance both the teaching effectiveness and studentsrsquo learning outcomes it is still necessary for our teachers to acquire improve and

implement the teaching strategies concerning small class teaching catering for learning diversities cross-curricular learning cooperative learning e-learning and mobile learning

33 Assessment

Studentsrsquo performance had been continuously assessed by different modes of homework assignments quizzes tests and examinations Assignments which were duly designed to help consolidate studentsrsquo subject knowledge and to extend what students had learned in classroom

included various kinds like workbooks worksheets essay writing surveys projects case studies reports book reviews and newspaper cuttings etc There were diversified tasks or a range of questions of varied difficulties included in certain assignments to cater for the different learning needs of the students To help students become independent self-motivated learners self and peer assessments had been adopted for some subjects in some assignments This practice of adopting wider modes of assessments still needs to be further developed

Subject teachers often engaged themselves in consultation with one another on the assessment criteria and the monitoring of the quality of

assignments at the subject level Teachers had been especially cautious in taking sophisticated procedures in conducting the School-based Assessment in the New Senior

Secondary Curriculum Students were assessed on the same tasks and with the same assessment criteria To achieve this students were given common SBA tasks across classes the same standard of assessment and the same criteria for awarding marks to all students were applied consultation among teachers to align the marking criteria was conducted trial marking of samples of studentsrsquo work was carried out marks were adjusted whenever necessary to ensure consistence of assessment standard reference materials and archive materials were used to help standardizing marking and proper and sufficient guidance and supervision was provided to students to ensure the quality and authenticity of their work There was feedback and advice on improvement to students after the completion of marking to provide them with a fruitful learning experience

Besides assessment of learning formative assessments had been much more emphasized recently like in the implementation of School-based Assessment to help cultivate the overall and general learning abilities of students Teachers adopted assessment for learning in the classroom and in designing the homework to monitor studentsrsquo learning progress more closely

The Homework Submission Scheme adopted and implemented in these recent years accompanied with the homework policies of each subject

panel which often included mark deduction for late submission of assignments had resulted in studentsrsquo more timely and orderly submission of assignments To further encourage students to do well their homework with the belief that doing well the homework is the most effective way to consolidate their learning outcomes a plan was made to present the Homework Submission Awards to those students with clean homework submission records and positive remarks from subject teachers about the quality of their homework assignments

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

Studentsrsquo annual academic performance was formally assessed through tests and examinations which made up the term marks and the

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

The assignment inspection policy was carried out which required the subject panel heads to supervise the panel members over their making use

of homework assignments in achieving their teaching objectives Panel heads could make use of the standard record forms of assignment inspection to see into the quality and the quantity of the assignments given as well as the ways the teachers did the marking and feedbacks The subject panel heads also had to submit their studentsrsquo assignments to the Principal for inspection

examination marks of studentsrsquo annual scores respectively There were two examinations for each level of students every year For tests there were at least two assessments (testassignmentproject) for each subject within each term For junior forms there should be at least one test in the first term and preferably two tests in the second term while for senior forms the two assessments each term should be tests Studentsrsquo annual scores were worked out in the following way

Our school provided lots of opportunities for our students to serve the community in this way Through different organizations like Community Youth Club Girls Guides Junior Police Call Oxfam Club Red Cross Youth Unit and Zonta Z Club students could organize and take part in various activities to serve the community Flag selling charity sale blood donation day health project elderly centre visits were arranged for and by our students
