The mission of the English Department is to provide language education where students develop their English proficiency for study, work and leisure; extend their knowledge and experience of other cultures through the English medium; develop the ability to use English confidently; and help them overcome the challenges of the keenly competitive knowledge-based society of Hong Kong. To get students exposed to English as a second language in a language rich environment, we have provided a wide range of extra-curricular activities and experiences that help students acquire new skills, develop old ones and learn to be an expressive language user. We hope to inspire in our students a love for the language and foster an appreciation of the English language as an art.
