Central Student Support and Counselling Services

Endeavored to promoting the holistic growth of students, FSTE is pleased to establish its new initiatives on student support and counselling services, with a primary focus on Diploma Yi Jin (DYJ).  Through provision of professional development programmes and central support services to teachers and students, it is hoped to foster an inclusive learning environment that better caters for the comprehensive needs in the DYJ community.

Special Education Needs

In light of the increasing number of students with special educational needs (SEN) in recent years, FSTE picked this theme to kick start our central student support services, and has organised a series of teacher- and student-activities since 2016.

2016-2017

SEN Seminar 201608

The seminar serves as a kick start of the new initiative.  Special thanks to Ms. Helen Kwok, Counselling Psychologist, Hong Kong Shue Yan University, for providing her valuable insights to over 70 DYJ teachers and administrators, it provided an overview of counselling psychology, new understandings of SEN, with focuses on Dyslexia, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, and Autism Spectrum Disorder, supported with experiential activities, video, and discussion.  For more photos of the activity, please click here.
