Strengthen Ties with Stakeholders

Every year the HKEAA invites different stakeholder groups to take part in the Stakeholders Forum to exchange views and express their concerns on the development of public examinations and assessment, as well as to collect their experience and expectations of the services we provide.

In February, over 20 representatives from secondary school councils, concern groups of students with special educational needs (SEN) and parent-teacher associations met in the annual Stakeholders Forum. The representatives gladly shared their views and endorsed the effort that the Authority extended to the SEN candidates and its promotion of assessment literacy. Hosted by Mr Rock Chen, Chairman of the HKEAA, the Forum provided an excellent platform for the Authority to gather insights from stakeholders on strategic development.

Registration for the Chinese Folk Dance Graded Examinations

Apart from examinations on academic subjects, the HKEAA also offers a wide array of examinations that encourage the appreciation of arts and culture, such as those on music, dance and art for learners of different age groups. The International and Professional Examinations Division has been commissioned by the Chinese Folk Dancing Grading HK Centre recently to offer graded examinations to dance enthusiasts aged 4 and above.

Candidates taking the Chinese Folk Dance Graded Examinations will be awarded Grades 1 to 12 in Chinese folk dancing approved by the Ministry of Culture of the People’s Republic of China. Dancers who are granted Grade 11 and 12 certificates can apply for admission to prestige universities such as Fudan University, Tsinghua University and Peking University as talented students in arts. Examinations will be held this Summer and registration opens in April 2018.
