1 education system
Schools in Hong Kong are run by sponsoring bodies. All schools have autonomy over students, teachers and educational policies. Moreover, there are only a few government schools, and the Education Department is only responsible for allocating resources and monitoring the work of schools. Most schools in the mainland are directly managed by the government and implement the unified national education policy.
2. Education system
In the past, Hong Kong's education system has always adopted the British academic system, with students studying in secondary schools for five years. There is no formal distinction between junior high school and senior high school (but in the syllabus, it is still divided into two stages: Form 1 to Form 3, Form 4 to Form 5). Since the 20 12-20 13 school year, the academic system has been officially abolished and a new academic system of 3+3+4 has been implemented. After the reform, the education system is consistent with the mainland.
3. Language education
The teaching mode of "being biliterate and trilingual" is widely adopted in education in Hong Kong. English learning began in kindergarten and started quickly. Most schools have foreign teachers, creating a better language environment. In Chinese mainland, Putonghua teaching is widely used. As a subject, English is studied from primary school. If children need to study in an English environment, they can only enroll in international schools, but the general cost is higher.
Second, the unique advantages of education in Hong Kong
1, internationalization
Nowadays, only talents with international vision and international touch can be called real talents. And Hong Kong just provides such an international platform. As we all know, Hong Kong is the world's financial center, shipping center and logistics center, which has an international advantage unmatched by any mainland city. In Hong Kong, our vision and ability can be expanded as never before.
2. Language environment
In Hong Kong, language ability means "being biliterate and trilingual". Two languages are Chinese and English, and three languages refer to English, Cantonese and Mandarin. Compared with the mainland, studying in Hong Kong can not only enjoy a better English learning environment, but also master a third language-Cantonese.
3. Extensive foreign exchanges
Every university in Hong Kong maintains good relations with many famous universities at home and abroad, and provides many opportunities for overseas exchanges every semester. Take the Hong Kong Polytechnic University as an example. It has established exchange and cooperation relations with more than 65,438+000 prestigious universities, which will provide most applicants with valuable opportunities for foreign exchange every semester.
4. springboard for studying abroad
On the one hand, due to historical factors, Hong Kong society is tolerant of Chinese and Western cultures. Studying in Hong Kong can familiarize you with western culture in advance and pave the way for further study in the future. On the other hand, universities in Hong Kong are more international, and it will be more convenient to go abroad for further study after obtaining a bachelor's degree in Hong Kong. Therefore, Hong Kong has become an ideal springboard for studying abroad.
5. Curriculum design is in line with international standards.
The curriculum design of the University of Hong Kong is more in line with international standards than mainland universities. Many advanced majors (especially business) in the University of Hong Kong are not available in mainland universities. Take GlobalSupplyChainManagem as an example. As far as I know, this major has not been developed by famous universities in Chinese mainland.
6, different from the mainland's teaching methods.
In Hong Kong, students can enjoy completely independent study space, rich and varied social practices and services, high-quality training represented by high-table dinners, teamwork and various challenges, and optimize the allocation of teachers around the world. All these make the university education in Hong Kong extremely wonderful. This is why in recent years, a large number of Shenzhen children travel between Shenzhen and Hong Kong every day to attend kindergartens in Hong Kong. Parents also hope to obtain different teaching methods and contents.
7. First-class teachers
Professors from the University of Hong Kong come from all over the world, most of them from famous universities. Among them, there are even Nobel Prize winners and Fields Prize winners as professors.
8. Colorful community activities
Students who have studied in Hong Kong schools are deeply touched by the unique corporate culture of Hong Kong students.
9. All available teaching facilities and excellent living environment.
The Hong Kong Government generously allocates funds for education every year. Because of the abundant funds, Hong Kong schools have all kinds of teaching facilities.
10, with broad graduation prospects.
Mainland students who graduate from Hong Kong generally have three choices after graduation:
Continue to study as a graduate or doctoral student;
You can choose to work in Hong Kong;
You can go back to work in the mainland. Now the mainland is developing rapidly, and there is a great demand for talents. Graduates grow up under the advanced educational concept of Hong Kong University, have done numerous group assignments, and have already developed excellent team spirit and communication skills.
