Hong Kong's education system reform?
Over the years, Hong Kong has followed the British academic system, that is, three years in junior high school, two years in senior high school, two years in matriculation and three years in university. During the period of 15, education in Hong Kong has been reformed and innovated. In September 2009, the "3-3-4 new academic system" was implemented, that is, three years in junior high school, three years in senior high school and four years in university, which brought the academic system of Hong Kong into line with the mainland.
According to reports, the new academic system has reduced students' test burden and greatly facilitated mainland students to choose to study in Hong Kong. Hong Kong educational institutions are seeking recognition from mainland universities, especially famous universities such as Peking University, Tsinghua and Fudan University, so as to facilitate mainland students to study in Hong Kong, and at the same time provide convenience for Hong Kong students to study in the Mainland. At present, the number of mainland students studying in Hong Kong has increased from more than 1000 at first to more than 8,700 now. At present, 63 universities in the Mainland have enrolled Hong Kong students.
At the same time, after the reform of academic system, the curriculum has also been adjusted, and practical learning subjects have been set up for students' own advantages and interests. Under the new academic system, high school education provides a wider and more balanced curriculum, which can enable students to develop in an all-round way and provide them with diversified choices for higher education and employment.
