Release of Primary School Profiles 2016
***************************************
The following is issued on behalf of the Committee on Home-School Co-operation:
 
     The Committee on Home-School Co-operation (CHSC) will upload the e-version (in Chinese and English) of the Primary School Profiles 2016 on Monday (September 5). The Chinese and English printed versions of the profiles will be delivered to kindergartens and kindergarten-cum-child care centres for distribution to parents with children at the K3 level of the current school year.  
 
     The profiles provide basic information on more than 500 local primary schools covering school facilities, teaching staff information, class structure, performance assessment, school life, extra-curricular activities, school mission and school characteristics. The information is provided by individual schools showing the position as at April 2016.
 
     The publication of the profiles aims to provide parents with essential school information so as to enable them to choose a suitable school for their children. The profiles also publish the "Message from CHSC Chairman", which states the key points for parents when choosing schools.
 
     The e-version of the profiles enables schools to update their information on the Web directly, 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 Primary One level in September 2017 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 from the School Places Allocation Section of the Education Bureau (EDB). 
 
     The public can access the e-version of the profiles by visiting the Primary School Profiles website at www.chsc.hk/primary or m.chsc.hk/primary (mobile version). Copies of the printed version will be available for public reference at District Offices, public libraries, Regional Education Offices and the Central Resources Centre of the EDB.
 
     For enquiries about the profiles, please call the 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.
