Re: 真道中、小家長聚談
| Dear All, 
 Last night I visited the school website and noted that the details of the curriculum have been updated.
 
 Some of the details are abstracted below for your information and sharing:
 
 [The "Foundation Stage" is a two-year stage designed to cultivate motivations for and pleasures in learning. …..Taking departure from subject-based study in traditional schools, learning activities encourage students to integrate knowledge and their own experience. …… During the process of learning and teaching, continuous assessments of students’ learning abilities and progress will be conducted. ……. With this, the possible undesirable psychological impact of traditional tests and dictations could be avoided.
 There are no traditional textbooks for students. …….The school has arranged with an Internet Services Provider to give discount to students to use its platform to build their own homepages. Using broadband Internet connections, parents can also download recorded video footage of their children’s learning activities and see how their children are doing at school. In addition to conventional writing exercises, students will learn to complete assignments on the web. Students will also learn to access related reference materials in both Chinese and English. They will be using Putonghua and English as they participate in different learning sessions and activities. With Chinese culture as the basis, the school will systematically facilitate multicultural encounters for our students so as to increase their exposure.
 There will be "seven classes" at each level at the Foundation Stage. Each class will have "no more than 30 students".
 
 The "Development Stage" is a significant five-year stage in the eleven-year curriculum. …….Learning and teaching will frequently take place outside classrooms. This includes field trips as well as overseas study trips during long holidays for students to freely participate. The course of study is more demanding at this stage. Learning and teaching materials will also be stored electronically for students' easy access, downloading and exchange. …..Students may also take up study of a foreign language besides English. Native speakers will be employed to teach English, Putonghua and other languages so as to maximise students' exposure to the target languages. The school will also provide opportunities for students to perform in public. Through their participation in musical performances, dance, theatrical performances, choral speaking, public speaking and debates, students will acquire confidence in front of an audience. Besides, the school will encourage students to participate in various public contests so that they would accumulate experiences and broaden their horizons.
 
 
 The "Mastery Stage" is a four-year stage. ……In these four years, students will fulfil the International Baccalaureate Diploma (IBD) requirements and prepare to participate in the 'IBD examination' as well as the "future new matriculation examination" in Hong Kong. Students with outstanding results in these examinations will enter overseas and local universities of their choice. The IBD has a common curriculum for all and is held in high esteem throughout the world.]
 
 
 So, it is clear that
 (i) a maximum class size of 30 is for FS only;
 (ii) the number of classes at each level at FS is 7 and not 10;and
 (iii) the new HK matriculation examination is formally included under curriculum.
