Sheng Kung Hui should become a responsible and loving body

HKSKH Archbishop Kwong held the annual fellowship meeting last Monday which continued for three consecutive evenings.

Excerpt of a paper entitled
"Educational Centralization and Decentralization in East Asia"

presented at the APEC Educational Reform Summit, January 2004, Beijing, China

Frederick K.S. Leung
The University of Hong Kong

Hong Kong

Hong Kong is a relatively small place, and although it is divided into 18 smaller districts for management purposes, the "distance" between the central government and the districts is too small to be appreciable. So in Hong Kong, decentralization mainly refers to the transfer of authority and decision-making from the government to the schools. Hong Kong's education system has traditionally been a mixture of centralization and decentralization - centralized in terms of the curriculum and the examination structure, but decentralized in terms of the operation of schools because traditionally most schools in Hong Kong are operated by religious and other non-governmental organizations, referred to as school sponsoring bodies (SSBs) in Hong Kong. Recently however, there have been some major changes in the operation of schools, and the name of the game is school-based management (SBM).
