Section 1C/Attachment A Ranking of Principal of Special Schools

A. Special Schools with Combined Levels or Secondary Classes Only

1. The ranking of Principals of aided special schools with combined levels or secondary classes only is determined on the basis of the number of equivalent full-streamed ordinary secondary classes worked out according to the following weighting system and relativity ratio:

(a) Weighting system

1 special primary class = 0.6 full-streamed special secondary class 1 special junior secondary class = 0.8 full-streamed special secondary

class

1 special senior secondary class = 1 full-streamed special secondary class

(b) Relativity of ranking of Principal between special schools and ordinary schools:

A school with 18 equivalent full-streamed special secondary classes = a school with 24 ordinary secondary classes

2. The converted number of equivalent ordinary secondary classes, with fractional numbers rounded down, will determine the ranking of Principal for a special school in accordance with the following scale:

Number of

equivalent full-streamed

ordinary secondary classes Ranking of Principal 24 or more Principal II (Pr II)/** Principal I (Pr I)

15 – 23 Principal II (Pr II)

14 or less Principal Graduate Master/Mistress (PGM) Where fractional class results, this will be rounded down.

** Principal I (Pr I) post will only be provided for special schools operating senior secondary class(es) with 24 or more equivalent full-streamed ordinary secondary classes.

B. Primary Special Schools

1. The ranking of Principals of aided primary special schools is determined by the number of equivalent ordinary primary classes worked out according to the following relativity ratio:

A school with 18 special primary classes = a school with 24 ordinary primary classes

2. The converted number of equivalent ordinary primary classes, with fractional numbers rounded down, will determine the ranking of Principal for a special school in accordance with the following scale:

Number of equivalent

ordinary primary classes Ranking of Principal

24 or more Headmaster/Headmistress I (HM I) 12 – 23 Headmaster/Headmistress II (HM II) 11 or less* Senior Primary School Master/Mistress (SPSM)

Note:

# The respective numbers of senior teachers and teachers by rank (i.e. SPSM, PSM, AM, APSM and CM) entitled by a school should be determined in accordance with the grade structure it has adopted or as endorsed by the Education Bureau as appropriate, subject to the total number of graduate teacher posts entitled by the school not being exceeded.

* In a primary special school or special school with primary section with 12 – 23 equivalent ordinary primary classes, one PSM post will be re-ranked to the SPSM rank for the deputy head, and in a primary special school or special school with primary section with 24 equivalent ordinary primary classes or more, two PSM posts will be re-ranked to the SPSM rank for deputy heads. For special schools with both primary and secondary sections, they are allowed to opt for the provision of deputy heads either at the secondary level at PGM rank (see Section 1C/Attachment C) or at the primary level at SPSM rank, but not both. The option once made is irrevocable.

(updated on 1 September 2008)

1. The recommended grade structure is as follows:

(a) The headship and deputy headship posts should be at the graduate level;

(b) 50% (from the 2009/10 school year onwards) of the senior teacher posts should be graduate teacher posts; and

(updated on 1 September 2009)

(c) The remaining graduate posts should be allocated to the basic rank teacher level.

2. Notwithstanding (1) above, a school has the flexibility to determine an alternative grade structure, and the following should apply:

Grade structure with the number of PSM posts exceeding 50% of the senior teacher posts:

(a) The sponsor/Incorporated Management Committee should consult all the teaching staff and obtain their consensus before determining the grade structure.

(b) The headship and the deputy headship posts should remain at the graduate level.

(c) Flexibility may be allowed in determining the percentage of graduate posts in the senior teacher rank and the basic rank, subject to the total number of senior teacher posts, graduate teacher posts and the staff entitlement in each school not being exceeded.

(d) The sponsor/Incorporated Management Committee should forward the proposed grade structure with justifications to the Education Bureau for endorsement. It should also consult all the teaching staff and obtain their consensus before proposing any subsequent changes to the grade structure adopted six months in advance. Prior consent from the Education Bureau should be obtained before implementation.

(updated on 1 September 2008)

Note:

1. With effect from 1 September 2009, the ratio of graduate teacher posts will be 85%.

The 85% graduate teacher entitlement of a school will be worked out based on the total number of teaching posts provided under the revised teacher-to-class ratios under the new senior secondary (NSS) academic structure as announced in the Report on

“The New Academic Structure for Senior Secondary Education and Higher Education”.

(updated on 1 September 2009)

2. A special school operating a secondary section and with 15 or more equivalent full-streamed ordinary secondary classes is entitled to two deputy heads at Principal Graduate Master/Mistress (PGM) rank to be offset by an equivalent number of Senior Graduate Master/Mistress (SGM) posts.

3. The arrangements in 3(a) and 3(b) below have ceased since 1 September 2008 upon the enhancement of the graduate teacher ratio:

(a) updgrading one Principal Assistant Master/Mistress (PAM) post as deputy head for every two Senior Assistant Master/Mistress (SAM) posts with the PAM post offset by the deletion of one SAM post, if the number of SGM post is insufficient to allow the provision of PGM posts to the maximum number entitled in case of Paragraph 2 above; and

(b) upgrading one SAM post to a PAM post for a special school operating a secondary section with 24 or more equivalent full-streamed ordinary secondary classes.

Note: (i) With effect from 1 September 2008, serving PAMs with a recognised degree plus teacher training (or equivalent) may apply for re-grading to SGMs.

(ii) Upon successful re-grading or natural wastage of a serving PAM, the existing practice of upgrading an SAM post to a PAM post will cease with immediate effect. If a serving PAM does not apply for re-grading to

SGM, he/she can continue to be accommodated in his/her existing rank of PAM to hold against an SGM post created under the enhanced graduate teacher ratio accordingly. The respective proportions of SAM, Assistant Master/Mistress (AM) and Certificated Master/Mistress (CM) posts will not be affected by the cessation of this practice.

(iii) Exceptions to the arrangement spelt out in (ii) above are allowed during the two-year transition period from 1 September 2008 to 31 August 2010.

If a PAM post is vacated due to natural wastage or other reasons (excluding re-grading to SGM), the school may consider promoting a serving SAM to fill the vacancy and an SGM post created under the enhanced graduate teacher ratio should be held against accordingly. In case the PAM incumbent is re-graded to SGM during the transition period, the arrangement in (ii) above will apply.

4. One post in the rank of Graduate Master/Mistress (GM) is upgraded to SGM in an aided special school operating 15 or more equivalent full-streamed ordinary secondary classes.

5. Among the graduate teaching posts, the proportion of SGM and PGM posts should not exceed five-twelfths. This proportion excludes one GM post upgraded to SGM in an aided special school operating 15 or more equivalent full-streamed ordinary secondary classes. Among the non-graduate teaching posts, the proportion of SAM posts should not exceed one-quarter; and the combined proportion of SAM and AM posts should not exceed one-half.
