Curriculum Renewal and Development

I. Strengthening values education (including moral and civic education, and Basic Law education)

One of the updated learning goals according to EDB is for every student “to become an informed and responsible citizen with a sense of national and global identity, appreciation of positive values and attitudes as well as Chinese culture, and respect for pluralism in society”. To fully achieve this goal, values education, variously delivered in the form of moral and civic education, Basic Law education, life education, religious education, values across different KLAs/subjects are given utmost prominence at STMC.

Essential learning elements relevant to Basic Law education can be found in different subject curricula at the junior secondary level.

The PSHE KLA of STMC enables JS students to acquire fundamental knowledge necessary for further study about the Basic Law at the SS level;

F.1 Life and Society subject enables our students to understand the importance, ideas and concepts of the Basic Law;

Specifically, perseverance and gratefulness have been identified as the STMC Annual School Plan priority values and attitudes. These values and attitudes are infused into the learning and teaching of all KLAs as well.
