CONTROLLING OFFICER’S REPLY
(Question Serial No. 2616)

Programme: (8) Policy and Support
Controlling Officer: Permanent Secretary for Education (Mrs Marion LAI) Director of Bureau: Secretary for Education
Question:
Regarding the pilot scheme for local public sector and Direct Subsidy Scheme (DSS) schools to form sister schools with their counterparts in the Mainland (Pilot Scheme), please advise the Committee of:
1. The details about the schools that have formed sister schools with their counterparts in the Mainland, including the names of local and Mainland schools and their situated Mainland cities;
2. The average number of exchange activities between local schools and their counterparts in the Mainland in each year;
3. The details of the exchange activities;
4. How to define whether the Pilot Scheme is successful or not so as to decide whether it should be continued to carry out?
Asked by: Hon HUI Chi-fung (Member Question No. 9) Reply:
1. to 3. Schools participating in the Pilot Scheme on Promoting Interflows between Sister Schools in Hong Kong and the Mainland (the “Pilot Scheme”) have been organising various exchange activities at the student, teacher and school management levels based on their individual development needs, and in such areas as school development and planning, pedagogical studies and cultural interflows through school visits, student activities, seminars and experience-sharing, etc. It is up to individual schools to decide the target groups, frequency as well as mode of exchange activities with the financial support of the grant. As the number of exchange activities varies from school to school, EDB does not have readily available information on the number of exchange activities conducted. It is a prevailing practice that we do not disclose the name and situation of each participating school in the Pilot Scheme to avoid possible labelling and unnecessary pressure on individual schools.
4. The Education Bureau will commission an independent consultant to conduct an overall review of effectiveness of the Pilot Scheme in the 2017/18 school year. The scope, methodology and evaluation criteria, etc. of the review will be worked out.
