The current education system in Hong Kong is suffering a strong impact due to the big wave of emigration, which has led to a sharp decrease in the population of school-aged children.
On July 21, the Hong Kong Secondary School Council and the 18 District Secondary School Principals Association jointly wrote a letter to the Secretary for Education, Choi Yuk-lin, saying that the current “education situation is dire” and worrying that the decline in the number of school children might bring great turmoil to the education sector.
