Education Bureau
The new school year has begun! The students had a happy summer vacation. On the one hand, they are looking forward to the new year of study and life, studying and playing with their peers; on the other hand, they need to re-invest in their studies and appropriately allocate time to do homework and review.
The Education Bureau has always paid great attention to the balanced development of students’ physical and mental health and recommends that parents create “blank” space for their children. With the launch of the “Primary Education Curriculum Guidelines” (Trial Version) in September 2022, schools have gradually optimized their homework policies to create space for students’ whole-person development. Welcome to watch the video about “Academic Policy” to learn how schools optimize their academic policies.
