(2) The Education Bureau (EDB) has, starting from the 2014/15 school year, allocated about $200 million per year to step up the education support for NCS students in learning the Chinese language through, among others, the implementation of the “Chinese Language Curriculum Second Language Learning Framework” (“Learning Framework”) and the creation of an inclusive learning environment in schools.

The expenditure for the related support measures from the 2014/15 to 2016/17 school years is tabulated at Annex. Besides, EDB has, based on the research framework drawn up in light of the advice of research and language experts, been collecting and analysing data to evaluate the effectiveness of the support measures for NCS students (including the “Learning Framework”) and will refine them as appropriate.

CONTROLLING OFFICER’S REPLY

(Question Serial No. 1700)

Head: (156) Government Secretariat: Education Bureau Subhead (No. & title): (-) Not specified

Programme: (2) Pre-primary Education, (3) Primary Education, (4) Secondary Education, (6) Other Educational Services and Subsidies

Controlling Officer: Permanent Secretary for Education (Mrs Marion LAI) Director of Bureau: Secretary for Education

Question:

Please advise this Committee of:

1. the respective numbers of ethnic minority students and non-Chinese speaking (NCS) students in kindergartens, primary schools and secondary schools in Hong Kong from this school year to the past 5 school years.

2. the educational support programmes and the amount of allocation for facilitating ethnic minority students and NCS students to learn Chinese language from this school year to the past 5 school years.

Asked by: Hon CHOW Ho-ding, Holden (Member Question No. 27) Reply:

1. According to the information collected through the annual Student Enrolment Survey, the number of ethnic minority students studying in kindergartens and the number of non-Chinese speaking (NCS) ethnic minority students studying in public sector and Direct Subsidy Scheme primary and secondary schools in the past 5 years (i.e. from the 2012/13 to 2016/17 school years) is tabulated at Annex A.

The number of NCS students studying in kindergartens, public sector and Direct Subsidy Scheme primary and secondary schools from the 2012/13 to 2016/17 school years is tabulated at Annex B. The two sets of data are not comparable since definition of NCS students is based on the language spoken at home instead of the ethnicity of the students.

2. The support measures for NCS students (notably ethnic minority students) from the 2012/13 to 2016/17 school years and the expenditure are tabulated at Annex C.
