Life & Society (生活與社會)

The Life and Society curriculum covers the essential learning contents of Strand 1 “Personal and Social Development”, Strand 5 “Resources and Economic Activities” and Strand 6 “Social Systems and Citizenship” of the PSHE KLA.  The curriculum caters for the needs of students’ personal growth, helping them understand themselves, develop healthy interpersonal relationships, acquire important life skills, and learn how to cope with undesirable behaviours, etc.  The above learning contents not only help individuals develop a healthy lifestyle, they are also important elements of good citizens.  In addition, students should understand, from the perspective of members of society, the operation of local, national and global economic activities and social systems and their inter-relationships.  Students should also understand the intertwined relationship between the development of Hong Kong and the development of our country, particularly the distinctive advantage of Hong Kong strong support from the motherland and close connection with the world.  Hong Kong should actively enhance its development momentum and serve well as the bridge for mutual connection and access between our country and the world.
