It is the constitutional duty of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) to safeguard national security.  The Education Bureau (EDB) has been actively promoting national security education (NSE) to enhance students’ awareness of safeguarding national security and law-abidingness.  In 2021, the EDB released the Curriculum Framework of National Security Education in Hong Kong (Curriculum Framework) and the curriculum frameworks of National Security Education for 15 subjects (Subject Curriculum Frameworks) for schools’ reference in overall planning.  The EDB has also been adopting diversified measures all along to support schools in implementing NSE through “organic integration”, “natural connection”, “diversified strategies”, “mutual co-ordination”, “learning within and beyond the classroom”, and “whole-school participation”.

The Chief Executive announced in the 2024 Policy Address the updating of the Curriculum Framework and Subject Curriculum Frameworks.  In response to the ongoing optimisation and renewal of primary and secondary school curricula, the EDB has updated the Curriculum Framework and Subject Curriculum Frameworks to keep NSE abreast of the times, providing teachers with clearer and more comprehensive guidelines, and helping schools further promote NSE on the existing solid foundation.
