An Exploration into rule of law in Luohu (2023/24)
Summary
This circular memorandum invites primary and secondary schools to nominate Primary 4 to 6 / Secondary 1 to 3 students and teachers (including principals) to participate in the captioned programme.
Details
It has been set out in the Chief Executive’s 2023 Policy Address that more opportunities will continuously be provided for students to participate in the Mainland study tours. The targets include reserving adequate places for all students in publicly‑funded schools to participate in at least one subsidised Mainland exchange programme each in their primary and secondary stages under the Mainland Exchange Programme for Junior Secondary and Upper Primary Students and the Mainland Exchange Programme for Secondary School Students.
The Education Bureau (EDB) organises the Mainland exchange programme for students entitled “An Exploration into the rule of law in Luohu (2023/24)” (the Programme). In line with the curriculum, the Programme aims to help students learn about our country’s judicial authority, legal system and the development of the rule of law, and deepen their understanding of law-abidingness as the basic responsibility of citizens for the benefits of the community.
This is a 1-day programme scheduled for 2 July (Junior Secondary) and 4 July 2024 (Senior Primary). Details and application procedures are attached at Annexes 1 to 3 (Chinese version only).
Student participation is on a voluntary basis. Schools should proactively encourage students who have not participated in any Mainland exchange programmes to join the Programme.
Each school can nominate at most one group of participants (each group consists of 10 Primary 4 to 6/ Secondary 1 to 3 students and 1 teacher) for the Programme. Interested schools are requested to return the completed application form (Chinese version only) to the Life-wide Learning and Mainland Exchange Section 2 of the EDB by email (thematicmep2@edb.gov.hk) on or before 15 May 2024 (Wednesday). Late submissions will not be accepted.
