Immigration wave | 10 primary school dropouts drop in the number of secondary one admissions

Immigration has blown. Under the tide of teacher resignation and student dropouts, there are obviously more schools recruiting teachers this year. At the same time, prestigious schools rarely sell advertisements to recruit interim students.

Lian Zhenbang, chairman of the Association of Secondary School Principals, said today (29th) that he noticed the loss of middle-level faculty in schools, urged the authorities to improve the competitiveness of the education sector and retain talents, and suggested conducting a territory-wide teacher survey.

The vice chairman of the Hong Kong Island Principals Association, who is a primary school principal, James Hanming, revealed that each school has different drop-out situations. There are more than 10 students of the same level who have dropped out. It is a good opportunity to further implement small-class teaching. It is recommended to use 25 students as the middle line, and when the number of students is large, a class of 30 students, and vice versa, a class of 20 students.

Loss of middle-level faculty, principal calls for retention and absorption of talents

Lian Zhenbang said that he noticed the loss of middle-level faculty in the school, saying that he had submitted his opinion on the new "Policy Address" last month.

He believes that although the government has invested a lot of resources in the education sector, it must "reserve talents, recruit talents, nurture talents, and specialize talents." This has enhanced the competitiveness of the education sector and retained talents.

He even laughed and said that recently, the media has been pursuing the resignation of teachers and students from school almost every day. Therefore, he suggested that the authorities conduct a survey of teachers in Hong Kong and consider adjusting the number of teacher training courses.

School dropouts increase the number of births

In addition to the wave of teacher turnover, the wave of student dropouts is also quite obvious. Zhan Hanming revealed that the situation in each school is different, or that more than 10 students of the same level have dropped out. It’s difficult. Zhan revealed that there will be a huge gap between the number of students entering Primary One in the next six years and this year.

Zhan criticized the Education Bureau for not considering other alternatives. He pointed out that in the past, the elementary school once expanded by 30 students. It is recommended to set a limit of 25 students. When the number of students entering a higher school is large, a class of 30 students can be set, otherwise, a class of 20 students can be set.

He believes that the decline in the number of enrolled students is also an opportunity to further implement small-class teaching. He emphasized that he has served as a principal for many years. Compared with last year, the number of people is "competitive".

Commune and Social Sciences will replace Liberal Studies, and the principal will be launched next month: it’s much easier to do in a short time

In addition, the Citizenship and Social Development subject will be launched in S4 in September, but the textbook will not be completed until 2022 at the earliest.

Lian Zhenbang believes that "it is not easy to do in a short time", which means that teachers need to select more relevant information for evaluation examples without teaching materials, such as newspapers, reference books, etc., and take time to verify the information. accuracy.

"(Teacher) The challenge of entering the classroom every day is big. Everyone knows that a pair of Fit shoes is not enough for many people."
