Po Leung Kuk Lo Kit Sing (1983) College is a Hong Kong secondary school. Located in Cheung Hong Estate, Tsing Yi, New Territories, the subsidised secondary school was founded by Po Leung Kuk, a Hong Kong charitable organisation, in 1984. It was the first secondary school on the island. The school was named as Po Leung Kuk 1983 Board of Directors' College before 2011.
The school arranges numerous regular extracurricular activities for all students. Annual school events include reading activities, dance festivals, music festivals, drama performances, Chinese cultural week, swimming galas, sports days and summer camp.
The school has been a vanguard of project-based learning since the 1990s, when the approach was relatively new to many Hong Kong secondary schools. Students, divided into tetrads or pentads, have to finish a project throughout their summer vacation. Also, students need to complete various projects related to each subject they are studying.
The school adopted English as the medium of instruction (EMI) in September 2010,[1] owing to its efforts to strengthen the role of English language in the school. For instance, one-third of the school's lessons in an academic year are conducted in English. Its morning assembly is also conducted in English.
Po Leung Kuk, founder of the school, announced an identified donor, Mr Lo, donated HK$10 million to the school, in January 2010.[2] The school then proposed a change to its name to honor the donor.[3] The school's proposal soon sparked controversy among students and alumni of the school, which later launched a Facebook campaign to ask for withdrawal of the proposal.[4] [5] During the consultation period, Po Leung Kuk held discussions with different stakeholders of the school,[6] claiming the overall response to the name change was positive. Student union of the school, in response to the controversy, held a forum on 25 January 2010 to deliberate the issue. Hui Wing-ho, then-principal of the school, was invited to the forum.
Po Leung Kuk confirmed the long-speculated name change of the school after Lo Kit-sing, then-vice-chairman of Hong Kong Football Association, donated HK$7.8 million to the school, in June 2011. New name of the school, Po Leung Kuk Lo Kit Sing (1983) College, was unveiled on 14 September 2011 by a representative from Po Leung Kuk.[7] Education Bureau approved the school's application for the name change on 28 November 2011 and informed the school can adopt the new name two days later. A naming ceremony, officiated by Michael Suen Ming-yeung, then-Secretary for Education, was held on 2 December 2011 to celebrate the name change.
The school actively promotes the four teaching reform programs of "專閱德訊". Thematic research courses have been introduced for more than a decade. In addition to reading programs, the school conducts annual reading harvest day promotion activities. In addition, teachers and students have fully applied IT in learning and teaching. The Civic and Moral Education Group has a wealth of standing activities, such as Voicing our values.
The school has more than 300 computers, each classroom is equipped with LCD projector and multimedia player system, and set the whiteboard. Together with all teachers completing the training in information technology, multimedia teaching has basically penetrated into various subjects. It is not uncommon for students to watch videos, presentations, and download materials from the internet in class.
Extracurricular activities in the school are responsible for extracurricular activities. Activities include teams and interest groups, divided into five major categories of academic, arts, interests, sports, and services. Expansion of learning space as the main line, emphasizing the learning experience outside the classroom. The school has 5 layers of 59 extracurricular activities, namely four clubs, school teams, uniform team, academic society and interest groups.
