Are the Schools in danger of becoming CMI (Chinese as the Medium of Instruction)?
The relevance of the following information is subjected to the changing MOI (Medium of Instruction) policy proposed by the Education Department Bureau (EDB). No. Our EMI (English as the Medium of Instruction) status to a certain extent depends on the performance of PUWY. In the recent 3 years, we have enrolled over 90% of students capable to receive instruction in English, i.e., EMI schools, which is higher than the minimum requirement of 85%. Since we have to enroll at least 85% of our Form One students allocated through the Central Allocation from PUWY, we depend largely on the performance of their students. Gratefully we are not in any immediate danger of losing our EMI status. For WYK, the percentage has been around 96-97 and it does not show signs of dropping.
