At our school, Chemistry is offered under both the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE) and the Pearson Edexcel International Advanced Level (IAL) curricula. The HKDSE Chemistry curriculum emphasizes conceptual understanding, practical skills, and the application of chemistry in real-life contexts. Meanwhile, the Pearson Edexcel IAL Chemistry program provides an internationally recognized qualification with a modular structure. It offers a rigorous and in-depth study of chemical principles and experimental techniques.

 

Both streams aim to nurture students' scientific curiosity and equip students for higher education opportunities and science-related professions.
