Parent FAQ

How can I evaluate the teaching quality without a public report?

Parents can browse the school website for school development plans, event photos, and parent notices. You can also call the school or attend open days to speak directly with the principal and teachers.

Will the interview be conducted in Chinese or English?

The school uses Chinese as the medium of instruction, so the interview is likely in Cantonese, but there may be a simple English component. We recommend preparing basic self-introductions in both languages.

Does a Catholic school require students to be baptized?

Most Catholic schools accept non-Catholic students but provide religious education. Parents should express respect for the school's religious tradition and willingness to support related activities.
