HKFEW Wong Cho Bau Secondary School is a grant-in-aid secondary school in Hong Kong. It was founded in September 2003. Fully subsidized by the Government of Hong Kong, WCBSS is a grammar school using Chinese as the medium of instruction. There are 58 teaching staffs and around 1020 students. The campus is situated in Tung Chung.
Students entering the College are equally allocated into the four houses. Their houses remain the same until they leave the College. Currently, there are four houses. Each House is led by two teacher advisors.
There are altogether 27 classes in the school.
S1-S3 offers a broad general curriculum with a good balance among languages, arts, science, cultural and practical subjects. There is no streaming in S1-3. The top 40 students are placed in one class (1A,2A,3A as of years 2008–2009), and the other students are distributed among the other four classes.
In S4-S5, the classes are divided into two streams with three classes concentrating on arts and commercial subjects and two on science.
At the end of S.5, students sit for the Hong Kong Certificate of Education Examination, HKCEE.
In S6, the broadened curriculum includes Use of English, Chinese Language and Culture and some Advanced Supplementary (AS) Level subjects, in addition to the Advanced Level (AL) subjects.
Lessons are arranged on a 5-day week basis.
Starting from the academic year 2009–2010, the College will provide a new curriculum for senior students in conjunction with the planned educational reform by the Hong Kong Government. The subjects that will be offered are Chinese Language, English Language, Mathematics, Liberal Studies, Chinese Literature, Chinese History, Economics, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, History, Geography, Business, Accounting and Financial Studies, Visual Arts, Information and Communication Technology.
