Will allowing more Hong Kong schools to teach in English be too testing for pupils?
AI Summary
A review of Hong Kong's medium of instruction (MOI) policy may allow more junior secondary schools to teach in English. Currently, many schools use Chinese as the primary language of instruction (CMI), which some students find hinders their English proficiency when entering university. Suri Chan, a university student who attended a CMI secondary school where only science subjects were taught in English, experienced difficulty with English writing assignments and felt less prepared than peers from English-medium instruction (EMI) schools. This struggle is reportedly shared by other CMI graduates entering higher education. The potential policy change is also considered a political issue impacting school survival.
