There are 27 classes in the School and enrollment remains steady at around 900 students. The number of S1 classes is altered between 4 and 5 on alternate school years since there would be inadequate space to accommodate 30 classes if the School accepted 5 S1 classes every year.
Since its establishment,the School has been adopting English as the medium of instruction. Except Chinese Language,Chinese Literature,Chinese History and Putonghua,all subjects are taught in English this school year.
