The Hong Kong Teachers’ Centre (Centre) was established in 1987 in accordance with a recommendation of the Education Commission Report No. 1 published in 1984. Its base or headquarters, a multi-facet and multi-purpose Centre housed in a former primary school building at 4 Pak Fuk Road, North Point, was opened in June 1989. The Centre aims to promote continuous professional development and enrichment among teachers, and to foster among them a greater sense of unity and professionalism in an encouraging, neutral and non-hierarchical environment. Specific objectives of the Centre include the provision of opportunities for teachers to meet and exchange ideas and share experiences; the promotion of in-service education; the promotion of curriculum development; the development and trying out of new teaching aids and approaches; the provision of resources; the dissemination of news and ideas concerning education; and the organisation of social, cultural and recreational activities for teachers.
The Centre has a three-tier management structure to help plan and run its activities - an Advisory Management Committee (AMC), a Standing Committee (SC) and six Sub-committees. They are responsible for policy-making, monitoring and implementation of various duties and activities.
The AMC is a policy-making and monitoring body with a total membership of 72. These include 35 members nominated by and elected from educational organisations or teaching-related organisations; 35 members nominated by and elected from teachers; and 2 members appointed by Permanent Secretary for Education and Manpower.
The SC is the executive sub-structure of the AMC. It is concerned with the day-to-day functioning of the Centre and the running of its activities. The SC comprises the AMC Chairman and 2 Vice Chairmen, the 2 EMB (Education and Manpower Bureau) representatives, and 10 other members elected by and from the AMC.
The six Sub-committees are working groups responsible for specific areas of work of the Centre. They include Publication, Library and Teaching Resources, Activities, Constitution and Membership, Educational Research and Professional Development, reflect the work of the sub-committees. Members of the sub-committees are also members of the AMC .
At present, 158 educational bodies are registered members of the Centre. Apart from organising activities by itself, the centre also jointly organises or sponsors activities with non profit-making educational organisations for teachers in Hong Kong. During the financial year of 2004 to 2005, the Centre has organised, jointly with many educational organisations, more than 150 professional development and cultural activities for teachers, with a total attendance frequency of more than 26,000.
