Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor attended the 75th anniversary celebration of Pei Kiu Middle School today (4th). There were Tan Tieniu, deputy director of the Liaison Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and Qi Xiaochun, deputy director of the Political Work Department of the Hong Kong Garrison.
She recalled that Peiqiao was founded by patriots, dedicated to cultivating students to understand the motherland, inspiring patriotic sentiments, and setting the ambition to serve the country. She is a pioneer in national education.
She said that under the National Security Act, the Education Bureau actively carried out national security education in schools, which was only part of national education. It emphasized that enhancing students' national identity is an important learning purpose and schools play an important role.
After the challenge since the anti-amendment legislation, the authorities have realized that the government's role in education is far more than just providing resources. It should also have a leading responsibility for education.
Lam expects that the school will also use subject teaching and internal and external activities to enhance students' national concept, national sentiment and national identity through a school-wide participation model.
She said that in this regard, Peiqiao focuses on national education curriculum planning, which is both a pioneer and a model. For example, the school organizes activities such as the Whampoa Youth Military Academy military training camp, inland city inspections, and sister school exchanges, and even enters inland universities for further studies.
She pointed out that in the future, the government will support schools in these areas to help students understand Chinese culture, national history, national conditions, the Constitution and the Basic Law. In addition to the regular allowance, it will also provide additional resources through the funding plan of the Quality Education Fund. Support focuses on strengthening national education and national security education.
