Parents’ Seminar on “Senior Secondary Curriculum and Subject Choices” 2026
Following the progressive implementation of optimising measures for the four senior secondary (SS) core subjects (i.e. Chinese Language, English Language, Mathematics, and Citizenship and Social Development) and elective subjects in recent years, schools could make good use of the released space and lesson time to provide students with more diversified learning opportunitites, for example, enabling them to take an additional elective subject, and/ or participate more actively in Other Learning Experiences, life-wide learning activities, and explore personal pursuits, so as to cater for learner diversity, foster whole-person development, and nurture multiple talents.
To enable parents of Secondary 3 students to gain a better understanding of the latest development of the SS curriculum so that they can assist their children in making appropriate subject choices, the Education Bureau will organise a parents’ seminar on “Senior Secondary Curriculum and Subject Choices” on 7 February 2026 (Saturday). Topics to be covered in the seminar include:
- An Overview of the Senior Secondary Curriculum and its Latest Development;
- Introduction to the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination; and
- Alternative Pathways for Further Studies – Options Available.
This parents’ seminar will open for online application from 15 January 2026. For details, please visit the EDB “Parents’ Talks” webpage at
