HKUGA College

Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE); International A-Level (IAL)

With the belief that all students should have equal learning opportunity and one important key to successful integrated education is whole school approach.

The school has established the Student Support Team [Inclusive and Gifted Education (IGE) Committee] since 2012, consists of special educational needs coordinator, teachers of various knowledge and experience, social worker, counsellors, speech therapist, educational and clinical psychologists.

The team focuses on early identification, quality teaching in the regular classroom, support in all aspects of schooling, to individualise intervention. With the advantage of our through-train system and close communication between the primary section, students and parents, better support and preparation can be arranged during summer and before secondary school begins. We holistically and flexibly deploy our resources (e.g. the Learning Support Grant) to cater for students’ diverse learning needs through the 3-tier Intervention Model and promote an inclusive school culture.

Within the time in HKUGAC, information and strategies are shared with confidentiality to related teachers and administrative departments for better support in daily learning. Specific developmental (e.g. social skills, read and write techniques, and executive function...) and career life planning related programs are arranged with invitation to target groups of students based on their needs. On the academic side, special examination arrangements and relevant training (e.g. use of screen readers) are also available during assessment and examination period.

The school offers scholarships and financial assistance to eligible students.  Please visit the school website for more information.
