Learning and teaching of English is one of our top priorities. To enhance students’ English abilities, we create a favourable English learning environment from the following aspects:

 

School Management:  

A committee which is led by the Vice Principal and the English Panel Heads is set up to plan the school-based English curriculum. To increase students’ exposure to authentic English, our school has allocated extra resources to employ three native English speaking teachers (NET). 

Curriculum Design

To keep abreast of the curriculum development, our teachers work closely with the Education Bureau to design the school-based English curriculum. There are nine English lessons per week. Seven of them are allocated to the General English Programme which is taught by local English teachers (LET) and two of them are allocated to Reading Workshops which are co-taught by NET, LET and a teacher assistant. In this way, we can better cater for students’ needs.

English Language Learning Environment:

To provide an English-rich environment, learning of English at WCB is not confined to the classrooms and the English Room. English teachers also organise a variety of activities outside the classroom and school campus for students to practise their listening, speaking, reading and writing skills.
