The wave of resignations in Hong Kong’s education sector has now reached universities.
Local authorities announced a loss of 4,050 teachers from public and direct-funded primary and secondary schools in the 2021-22 school year, a record high in recent years. About 399 faculty members resigned from the publicly funded universities in the same school year, with a turnover rate of 7.4 percent, which recorded a new high since the transfer of sovereignty in 1997.
