Policy Address

Vocational and Post-secondary Education

195.         The Education Bureau will advance its review of ways to extend the scope of the subsidy of the Mainland University Study Subsidy Scheme, with a view to assisting more students with financial needs to pursue further studies in the Mainland. 

196.         As pointed out in my previous two Policy Addresses, young people can develop their interests and realise their potential through vocational education.  The Government has accepted all the recommendations of the Task Force on Promotion of Vocational Education and will actively consider how to implement them.  The recommendations include fully subsidising Applied Learning courses by secondary schools, extending the Pilot Training and Support Scheme to benefit two more cohorts of 2 000 students in total, and supporting major vocational and professional education and training providers to organise large-scale skills competitions to select representatives of Hong Kong to take part in world skills competitions. 

197.         The Government will earmark a site in the urban district to develop a Vocational Training Council campus with adequate capacity and state-of-the-art facilities.
