School Characteristics
School Management
School's Major Concerns:
Elegantia College places paramount importance on students’ comprehensive development in moral attributes, academic pursuit, and co-curricular activities
to nurture a new generation equipped with self-learning skills and responsibility for lifelong learning.
School Management Organisation:
The Incorporated Management Committee (IMC) supervises school affairs which are led by the Principal. Under the supervision of Student Growth
Committee and Effective Learning Committee, all committees work hands in hands to formulate policies and promote school development. Our school is in
close collaboration with the Parent-Teacher Association, Alumni Association, Student Union, etc.
Incorporated Management Committee / School Management Committee / Management Committee:
The Incorporated Management Committee which was set up in our school in August 2006 comprises different stakeholders of the school including
members from the sponsoring body (Education Convergence and Hong Kong Yee’s Five Tong Association), the principal, independent members, parent
representative(s), teacher representative(s), etc. At least three IMC meetings are held every year to formulate policies and plans on curriculum, manpower
resources, budget, etc. Our school has also established an education consultant group which comprises scholars, experienced educators, professionals, etc.
for provision of their expertise in the school development.
School Green Policy:
The establishment of the School Campus Development Committee and the Environmental Protection Committee in the overall planning and promotion of
environmentally-friendly measures.
Learning and Teaching Plan
Whole-school Language Policy:
Our school aims to help students to be biliterate and trilingual. For all F.1 students, the medium of instruction for all subjects is English, with the exception
of Chinese Language, Chinese History, History, P.E., Putonghua, Drama, Project Learning and Life Education.
As for students in F.2 and F.3, the medium of instruction for subjects including Mathematics, Science, English Language and English Drama Elective (F.3) is
English, with the exception of Chinese subjects (for all classes) and a small number of non-Chinese subjects (varies from class to class on the basis of their
overall English proficiency). Putonghua as a taught subject is a mandatory component in the F.1 and F.2 curricula.
To create and maintain an English-rich environment, purpose-built facilities and special rooms are made available to English teachers for running student-led
activities designed to boost students' confidence and interests in learning English. A wide range of activities, such as English morning assemblies, English
Speaking Days, etc. are arranged regularly for boosting students’ experience in speaking and listening in particular. Overseas summer immersion programs
are usually held yearly to further broaden students' horizons.
Learning and Teaching Strategies:
1. Our school teachers uphold the belief of “stabilization as a foundation for liberation, self-actualisation and diversified development” to help students
develop a sense of discipline and respect to teachers. Our teaching focuses on ‘review, teaching, interaction and consolidation’ as essential steps of
activating students’ prior knowledge and scaffolding their learning.
2. Teacher-student and student-student interactions are enhanced through purposeful group work, presentations, meaningful activities, etc.
School-based curriculum:
1. Electives: 2X, 3X and 4X. Students can choose two to four electives from 12 electives based on their capability and interests.
2. Curriculum highlights:
(1) Our school curriculum puts much emphasis on students’ knowledge, skills, attitude and values.
(2) The junior secondary curriculum aims to help students cultivate proper learning attitudes and habits in students, set clear learning objectives, develop
basic subject knowledge and generic skills. In view of this, traditional subjects including Chinese History, History and Geography are introduced as well as
other school-based subjects including Project Learning, Chinese and English Drama Electives.
(3) In senior forms, we aim at developing students’ high-order thinking skills, self-directed learning skills and academic knowledge so that they can
achieve outstanding results in public examinations.
(4) Our school has established a comprehensive and well-planned Moral and Civic Education Curriculum in fostering students’ proper values and
attitudes towards life and guiding them to develop their personal goals and explore their potentials to strive for excellence.
Development of the Four Key Tasks:
1. Reading to Learn
• Morning Reading sessions are conducted daily in junior forms to expose students to Chinese and English reading materials and newspapers.
• Whole-school Morning Reading session is arranged for value education on Wednesdays.
• Our school library also arranges a wide range of activities and promotes cross-curricular collaboration to foster students’ reading habits.
2. Information Technology
• The setting up of Intranet and the promotion of Information Technology for learning.
• The continued enhancement of network support to introduce e-Learning in school.
3. Project Learning
Project Learning is one of the subjects in junior forms. Students are required to do projects in some other subjects for development of inquiry skills,
collaborative skills, communication skills as well as high-order skills.
4. Moral and Civic Education
Our school emphasizes students’ whole-person development through the establishment of the Moral and Civic Education Committee, tailor-made
materials for Morning Reading sessions, morning assemblies, weekly afternoon assemblies, theme-based activities to promote value education.
Life Planning Education:
Careers Guidance and Counselling Committee was set up to arrange different form-based activities including career and aptitude tests, games related to life
planning, seminars, workshops, etc. These activities provide students with assistance and awareness-building for a better understanding of their interests,
ability and aspirations. This paves the way for further studies and multiple career pathways.
Student Support
Whole School Approach to Catering for Learner Diversity:
1. Different split groups of teaching as a means to cater for learner diversity and mixed needs.
2. Provision of after-school enhancement classes for a better foundation.
3. The Studies Committee set up a Student Learning Ambassador Team to fully explore and develop the potentials of gifted students in school. Through
different activities, students are introduced to a range of learning strategies to maximise the learning effectiveness.
4. The Counselling and Guidance Committee’s provision of related support to students’ learning and whole-person development based on their mixed
needs.
5. Comprehensive development of social activities to cater for learner diversity, explore students’ potentials and create a harmonious school culture.
Whole School Approach to Integrated Education:
Our school is dedicated to an inclusive culture rendering timely assistance to the learning and social needs of students. For example, small groups focusing
on developing social skills, attention enhancement, board games, speech therapy, etc. allow students to mingle into a campus with equal opportunities and
benevolence. We identify, refer, and follow up on students in a systematic manner. Collaborating with social workers, professionals and parents, we devise
support programmes and conduct meetings with the principal, vice-principal, assistant principals, Special Needs Education Coordinator (SENCO), Student
Affairs Committee, and Academic Affairs Committee in which we formulate teaching strategies and tailor-make examination adjustments. In addition, we
provide various counselling services according to individual needs together with peer angels, counselling teachers, educational psychologist, and
outsourcing firms. In a whole-school approach, the school also organizes a number of professional training activities for teachers as well.
Measures to provide adaptation for Learning and Assessment:
Our school conducts two uniform tests and two end-of-term examinations annually. Continuous assessment has also been adopted to evaluate students’
learning progress through daily assignments, quizzes, projects, etc.
Home-School Co-operation and School Ethos
Home-School Co-operation:
Our school has established the Parent-Teacher Association in which regular meetings are held for collection of parents’ opinions and promotion of school
development. Parents enthusiastically participate in parent volunteering activities e.g. provision of assistance in Morning Reading sessions, supervision on
students’ discipline during lunch time, assistance in school library work, etc.
In addition to the above-mentioned activities, our school has established a close liaison with parents through circulars, regular updates on the school
webpage, Parents’ Days, parent seminars, workshops, etc.
School Ethos:
Our school cherishes a life of simplicity for students to study in a motivating learning environment. Under the belief of “Moral and Academic Excellence”,
we emphasize students’ stabilization as a foundation for liberation, self-actualisation and diversified development. A harmonious, disciplined and caring
atmosphere has been created through different means, e.g. ‘bell-less morning assemblies’, students’ decent behaviour and manner, strict but caring
teachers, mutual respect and care between teachers and students, etc.

School Development Plan:
The major concerns of our three-year Plans for 2020-2023 are as follows:

Development Days focusing on the yearly school major concerns to facilitate teachers’ professional sharing and maximize the effectiveness of teaching and
learning.
