The Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is devoting considerable resources to the teaching of English at schools, in the workplace and in the wider community in order to maintain Hong Kong’s status as Asia’s World City.
English language is very popular amongst Hong Kong young learners, and British English is valued by parents when choosing courses for their children. Home learning resources, particularly high-end English and multimedia learning resources designed for young learners, are popular choices in-market.
Promotion of e-learning in schools is high on the Government’s education agenda, including the development of e-learning resources for the enhancement of learning and teaching. The Government’s total grant to schools for ICT resources is £24 million p.a. It is taking steps to provide grants for schools to trial e-learning resources and foster a marketplace for the e-learning industry.
