The following is issued on behalf of the Committee on Home-School Co-operation:
The Committee on Home-School Co-operation (CHSC) will release the online version (in Chinese and English) of the Primary School Profiles 2024 on September 2 (next Monday). All kindergartens and kindergarten-cum-child care centres in the territory will distribute the printed version of the Profiles to parents with children at the K3 level of the current school year.
The Profiles cover basic information of more than 500 local primary schools including school facilities, teaching staff information, class structure, performance assessment, school life, life-wide learning, school mission and school characteristics. The information is provided and verified by individual schools, showing their situations as at April 2024.
The Profiles provide essential school information and a "Message from CHSC Chairman", which states the key points when choosing schools, to help parents choose a suitable school for their children.
Schools can update the online version of the Profiles whenever necessary so that parents can obtain the most up-to-date school information.
The Profiles are divided by districts. Parents of children who will study at the Primary One level in September 2025 will receive a copy of either the Chinese or English printed version of the Profiles for their districts of residence through their respective kindergartens or kindergarten-cum-child care centres. For children not attending kindergartens or kindergarten-cum-child care centres, parents may obtain a copy of the respective district from the School Places Allocation Section of the Education Bureau (EDB).
The public can access the online version of the Profiles by visiting the Primary School Profiles webpage at www.chsc.hk/primary/en. Copies of the printed version will be available for public reference at District Offices, public libraries and Regional Education Offices of the EDB.
For enquiries about the Profiles, please call the EDB's Regional Education Offices (Hong Kong: 2863 4646; Kowloon: 3698 4108; New Territories East: 2639 4876; and New Territories West: 2437 7272) or the CHSC Secretariat at 3698 4376.
