The Education Bureau (EDB) today (December 20) announced that Tai Po Baptist Public School will use the school premises of the former Church of Christ in China Kei Ching Primary School (former Kei Ching Primary School) at Fu Shin Estate, Tai Po, during the 2026/27 school year.

     Due to the fire at Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po, the school premises of Tai Po Baptist Public School will remain closed for a period of time. As a transitional measure, the EDB has arranged for students of Tai Po Baptist Public School to resume face-to-face classes by grade level at the school premises of Tai Po Government Primary School and NTWJWA Christian Remembrance of Grace Primary School respectively, from the 15th of this month until the end of the current school year.

     A spokesperson for the EDB said, "To enable all students of Tai Po Baptist Public School to continue their studies in a stable and continuous learning environment as early as possible, and to further safeguard students’ well-being, following discussions between the EDB and relevant government departments, the school premises of the former Kei Ching Primary School (originally planned to be converted into an integrated social service complex) will be allocated to Tai Po Baptist Public School for use as its school premises from the 2026/27 school year, allowing all classes to resume normal teaching and learning activities at a single school site."

     The EDB has set up a dedicated working group to implement the above arrangement. The EDB will continue to maintain close contact with the school and provide appropriate support.
